Banned And Badged.

[McMouse]

I notice that although banned, docspock has been awarded badges. How does this work?

[AB Editor]

Badges are awarded based on stats, if he's reached the threshold for one, he'll get one. Even if he's banned.

[emmie]

Morning McM ;)

He also appears on one of the Ed's instructional YouTube vids but don't mention it - Ed has loads to deal with today ...

[sara3]

lol

[McMouse]

So is this like bankers costing the country billions, yet because they have a contract they get whopping great bonuses?

[vulcan42]

Don't badger the Ed, he's busy sorting name changes.

[Barmaid]

I think the ed will soon be sat in corner with his underpants on his head, two pencils up his nose saying "wibble".

[FredPuli43]

Getting badges is like being made a Lord. It would take impeachment to remove them

"So is this like bankers costing the country billions, yet because they have a contract they get whopping great bonuses?"

This is exactly it :)

On a related note, I'm still not quite sure how I managed to pick up a ten years plus "Lifetime membership badge" when I joined two years ago...

[Jubz]

Same here jim360, I've just noticed I've been given a 'Lifetime Service award' for 10 years membership and I've only been here for just over 2 weeks, LOL. I get a badge but can't even get an avatar yet.

jim, AB will be closed down for a massage in 2021, so they've awarded some 10-year badges in advance.

[magsmay]

apparently I gave a best answer at 3am this morning and got a quickdraw badge for it- thanks ed -I must have been AB-ing in my sleep ;-)

[McMouse]

I once had an avatar depicting a beautiful woman with her forefinger in her mouth and Ed banned it. I should have been awarded a badge for services to pornography........there is no justice.
