I'm puzzled as to why AB still bothers with Badges. I noticed today that a poster who posted once and was signed into AB for 2 minutes has been awarded 4 badges ( https://www.theanswerbank.co.uk/members/keerthan/ ) whereas after giving over 30000 answers I have only 3. I'm not interested in collecting badges but this example does show that are not meaningful. I don't think we still issue them. Why not just scrap them altogether?
