Badges

Badges are small graphics awarded to users that compete in competitions or help out the site in some way. However, they originally had a much different purpose.

History

Back during the EZBoard (or vBulletin) era, badges were conceived. They were originally just jokes; they were the Whiner, Complainer, Mr. Serious, Flamer, Stupidity and Annoyance badges. Other users decided to make their own badges for various things, for example being a Soveryhappy fan, or Draco's Ass of MFGG badge.

Some time later, when MFGG transferred to an Invision board, Klobber and Retriever II decided to make badges that promote positive things, and have them be in the user's profiles. Badges were created using graphics from Paper Mario and awarded for many things.
