good summaritan badge
going so long without ban/probation, or getting to whatever "level" (infamous scribbler, pulitzer lauereate, gone gonze, etc.) without ban/probation

I second this. Us toadies and teachers-pets deserve badges too.

And I third it! Partly because im insanely cautious on this site, and therefore havent even been on probation, and partly because I want to replace 'You Really like me!'

Indeed, since I too am on the cusp of "going gonzo" without getting smacked around by moderatorial rage I find myself interested in your ideas and wish to subscribe to your newsletter.

Suggestions

"I fought the law" : Been on probation
"Arise!" : Thread Necromancy
"Forsooth, I laugh out loud" : Correct Grammar Usage
"Go to bed!": Caught posting between 2 and 6 am local time.
"Square Eyes" : Watched over 20 Escapist Videos.
"Always a bridesmaid" : Entered competitions but never won.

In that case, I should have more badges.

Do we get a bagidex?

Okay, enough with the Pokemon jokes... *hangs head shamefully*

I really like badges.
I really want to get more badges.
I am going to be on this site more now, mainly because I have serious issues.
I hope more things like this are planned in the future.

Who got to pick out the avatars for them? Fun Fun.

Group effort. And it was fun coming up with the awards, the names and then designing them.

Glad you guys like them! :)

I Can Has Friend. Some (all) of them are really good.

I got a surprise this morning when checking my messages; there's a "badge" tab on your profile now, and it looks like that's the place to resort your badges so that the top 4 show up in your posts.

Yay! Thanks, Escapist-hamster-wrangler guys!

You actually contributed to stoking the fires of a flame war, what are you talking about?

Besides, such a badge would be meaningless as long as that arbitrary prick wilsonscrazybed is moderating things.

I haven't gotten banned yet, I don't think he has either.

and when you said what you said about wilson I just had this image Tom Hanks yelling at a volleyball for floating off

Is that a film reference I should get, or a really random statement? Either way, it's a really cool image.

It's from Outcast, a most worthwhile movie staring Mr Hanks and a volleyball named Wilson.

I love these badges :D

Although, I can see them becoming a thing where people... errmm... Badge-whoring(?). Which is why I'm glad that they are all for cintributing to the forum :)

*Smack forhead* Of course! How did I not realise that!? Awesome movie (though I believe the name is actually Castaway is it not?)

Nice going Escapist team, you just increased the likeliness of all the members spamming endlessly tenfold.

Seriously, I hope you and your badges burn. BURN. BURN IN THE HOLY FLAMES OF AR'KRAH!

Badges fail, they turn the forums in a giant competition to see who can waste the largest hunk of their life on the internet to get badges for them to run around and brag about "HEY GUIZ I AM LUZER BUT WINRAR ON WEBZ :D:D:D:D:D"

Die.

The ban-hammer is coming at you. I'd delete that if I were you just to be safe.

Take my advice ASAP.

That said, I would like probation.
Why?

You know, I can see how you guys would enjoy that... Watch your temper, and your mouth.

EDIT: This would be a great opportunity to earn our Trollslayer badges.

No, no, no. That is completely unnecessary.
...Besides, I want ban/probation. Probation preferably. DON'T LET ME DOWN, MODS

I mean, don't let me down again. Badges already ruined my hopes and expectation.

Let it be known that I support Haliwali's idea of troll-slaying badges. They would be pretty awesome.

If there is one, you've already earned it.

Seriously though, a good sumaritan badge would encourage good behavior.

I support it too. It could have a picture of a battleaxe or something similar.

Really, I think the idea of not being banned is encouragement enough. Although if you want everyone else to know how nice you are I can see why you would want it.

As for Trollslayer badges, a Warhammer wouldn't be bad. For the King badge just throw a crown behind it.

I have got literally no clue. It looks like a cross between a bingo marker and a microphone.

It's a satellite. Haile, the artist that did the 'Community' art, was being funny :)

Also, there are never going to be any badges to encourage trolling or getting into fights with trolls. Report the posts and ignore the content, and the moderators will take care of the rest - that's why they're here.
