Journey Posted July 12, 2021 Report Share Posted July 12, 2021 What is this new *achievement* badge I saw on posts? Is there a way to get rid of it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Journey Posted July 12, 2021 Author Report Share Posted July 12, 2021 Oh, good grief, the post above earned me a *conversation starter* badge and increased my rank to *rookie*...how do I make it go away?! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Michael Parkey Posted July 13, 2021 Report Share Posted July 13, 2021 I am a moderator on another forum which recently changed/updated its format. Suddenly I became a "Super Moderator"! I asked the tech people what my new superpowers are. Turns out they are exactly the same as when I was just a moderator. I think this is called title inflation.

Journey Posted July 13, 2021 Author Report Share Posted July 13, 2021 @Michael Parkeythough in mine and Amy's case it would be *deflation* Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark Billadeau Posted July 13, 2021 Report Share Posted July 13, 2021 Rookies are generally younger seniors being considered younger may not be that bad Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pearse Posted July 20, 2021 Report Share Posted July 20, 2021 My guess is the forum software got updated and the badges are a new "feature". Only the site admin can turn them off. I am both a "Newbie" for my first post (despite being here since 2004) and a "Posting Machine" (>500 posts) apparently so I am now paralyzed with indecision, unable to ascertain my place in the world.
