Best Of

Yes sir! I got the impression 5 was the limit. I merely thought I'd give a ranking that covered as many categories as possible (since I was asked lol). 5 seems like a good amount.

I love BGG. I didn't want to give a priority list necessarily, because I think customizing the selection is way better. It allows you to demonstrate what aspects of your activity you personally value. I was just trying to respond thoughtfully to Aily asking how I would prioritize badges

Also. I like the tiered title thing. Since you are one of the highest ranking members at the moment, it would be immensely helpful to new members to be able to see how active and supportive you have been without even needing to dive into your profile just to see that.

I guess if they end up showing both as @Marco M said that would be fine too, but I'd say the rank is at least as important as the badge spread in giving a snapshot of someone's potential knowledge, experience, and activity.

There is currently a limit of 5 badges being shown within posts/comments. We appreciate the feedback though @Luke Shiras and @bcostlow!

With regards to the job titles and ranks, we're hoping to display both at some point in the future. 🙂

I'm not as motivated by badge collecting, but it does help represent creditability when interacting with new users. At the same time, it implies that someone without a lot of badges may not be as knowledgeable just because they recently joined.

A couple of ideas to consider would be to limit the number of badges shown to five, but the user decides which five. BoardGameGeek does this so each user can prioritize which five are most important to them.

Second, maybe we can mix and match the job title and rank by color coding the title (font or background), so your color changes based on your rank/tier.

Yup! Looking to resolve the post and any type of duplication soon.
