@Mors I personally like badges -- they're a great way of showcasing how each user contributed to the community and what talents each user has. In fact, they motivated me to contribute to this place a lot! I can kind of see what you mean about too many badges. I sometimes wonder if it's really necessary to give a badge for posting on MFGG's anniversary at a specific year. Maybe those badges could be merged into one? I would leave the top 5 badges as they still require a bit of effort to obtain and show what skills you've at least tried out. I really like the idea of putting the badges to the main site -- after all, it appears to be the main gathering point of our community. I think the main site should have more ties with the other parts of MFGG anyway. For example, forum events seem to be rarely reported on the main site, although it seems that you staff members have been doing better at that lately. There isn't an update that says the SMB2 Isometric Collaboration has been finished and contains a link to the picture, however. That would be nice to have!

Some people suggested making it so that you can select only up to a few badges that would displayed next to every post you make. The rest would be viewed in your profile. I'm not sure if I like this idea or not, but maybe the majority of the community would be interested in this idea and it could eliminate the issue of too many badges!
