:rolleyes:

one more time — while it would be *REALLY* nice to know when FT (or IB) implements a new badge, it would be even nicer to know their criteria for “awarding” it

at least “Community Builder” has a somewhat more conventional (traditional?) implication than “All Eyes On You”

Three Unanswered Questions

In addition to my two previous unanswered questions (about the criteria for "Conversation Starter" and "Community Builder" badges), I now have a third.

What is the difference between a "Community Builder" and a "Community Influencer" badge?

Perhaps IBJoel might be able to tell us, please? :idea: :star: :tu:

Can I have a guess?

A Community builder is a traditional forumite, whose profile suggests they are probably from last century.

A Community influencer is the same thing but a they're probably a late millennial or gen Z.

OK…If FT offered a "Community Curmudgeon" Badge… I’m willing to pay to get that one! And this is from a guy who removed all his badges...

Hopefully it's not as "Stasi-esque" as it sounds. :eek:

I noticed that you aren't showing off any badges. Is that by design?

"in Russia, flyertalk eyes are on YOU...". Explained up thread.

Maybe time for a wiki update? I imagine as people get badges they'll wonder like we all did.
