So, is the "Win a beta test match" for beating the developers? I'm guessing that one would be a manually updated one though, and I don't see anyone with that badge. And about those foamwinians we're supposed to get...
I concur! The angry mob is starting to grow larger, and by mob, I mean me, and Marvin.... <.< >.>

You didn't even make a script that automatically scanned Real Life™ and added the badge appropriately? Shame.

Well, I've never been a fan of the whole posts-give-you-stars-and-stars-reaffirm-your-value-to-mankind thing, especially the kind of culture it tends to brew on forums... and these do share an awful resemblance to achievements (but at least most of them are productive, rather than "Spy Check 17000 friendly cloaked spies").
However, I must say, they are quite shiny.

Achievements for forums?
More spam!

Well, I'm sure the posts badge won't dramatically increase the signal-to-noise ratio. To be honest, I've always disliked status based on post count, as - as Pox put it - that encourages spam/filler/redundant posts.
The rest are pretty non-interrupting, I believe.

What I want to know is why I don't have a loyalty badge...
Wait, May 2008?
I joined, like, January 2007, at least!
