1) I'm not going to spend hours watching every video just to get the badges, i'll watch the videos i like because i like them. However i think it's a great concept and one which adds to the uniqueness of this site.
2) Either my contributor badge or my honourable mention badge
3)Star badge or Forum Inferno
4) Video and Genre Wars badges
4) Pony Badge

1. Eh. I suppose as Maddawg said, I care enough about my badges to go out of my way to get them, but usually the badge has to be pretty special to warrant that.

2. The Four under my avatar there.

3. Thanks. I want it so bad!

4. The video badges.

5. I'unno.

I do like my Desert bus badge a fair bit. (They were a great couple of days of maxing out my internet for the month)

I do not care for the Matrix badges. Anybody can go into Forum Games, bust out a stream of posts until 5000 and get the badge.

Ah, but not everyone can get to 5000 without getting a suspension of some sort.

Believe me, in Forum Games, you can piss out hundreds of posts in a day without any mod wrath. That's why you see users with join dates newer than ours that have 5 digit post counts.

Simple solution would be to turn off post counts in Forum Games, that way only posts that matter go to your count, making the badges a lot more worthwhile.

Mods, if you are reading this, please don't. If this is correct, then I just found an easy way to get the Neo badge. Thanks heaps!

OT: I honestly don't care when someone who joined after me has a higher post count. I just assume they spend way more time on the internet that I do.

I don't care that much about badges, my current favourite is my Cuddles badge for getting 100% on the impossible Apocalypse Lane quiz, I really hope to get my Neo badge sometime before this year is over, I couldn't care less about most of my social badges, and I don't know of any badges that I can't get anymore that I would like.

Wooo! Run on sentences!

 

[Drenik]

I have no problem with them but I probably wouldn't go out of my way from them.

 

[TerribleAssassin]

My Escapist Contributor badge. That one is one I really care about.

How does one become an Escapist Contributer?

(Well we've found the one I want the most..)



My favourite, the Notable Poster, I was quite proud of it, cause I posted some harsh comments about MewTew so I was worried about if I'd get a telling off..

 

[orangebandguy]

I'd like a 1000 responses badge.


Cyber Celeb badge would be cool too, but Forum Inferno tops it for me.

How much do you care about badges?

I've never gone out of my way to get a badge, but they're a nice feature.

Which of your badges is your favorite?

Easily my DDKR badge.

Which badge that you don't have yet do you want the most?

The only one I really want is the Neo badge. I'm working my way towards that one. I'd also like another kitty badge to complete the set.

Is there some badge you have that you couldn't care less about?

Not really, maybe the ones for Apocalypse Lane... I don't watch it so, yeah.

Is there some badge that's unavailabe to you forever that you really would have liked to have?

Nah, like I said, I don't go out of my way to get badges and the only one I do want is easy enough to get.

So let's discuss the badges.

How much do you care about badges?
Not very much, I very rarely do anything to actively get one. Mainly quizzes if anything

Which of your badges is your favorite?
My ones? Acing the Bioshock quiz. Oddly enough I don't have it on my main four.

Which badge that you don't have yet do you want the most?
Neo I guess, I have made around 4300 posts and haven't been in trouble yet so it's looking good even if I am a somewhat sporadic member of the forums.

Is there some badge you have that you couldn't care less about?
The genre wars ones and the ones awarded for watching videos I don't give a damn about, basically any badge that doesn't require you doing anything positive. Even friend and message ones means you are, as people want to talk to you.

Is there some badge that's unavailabe to you forever that you really would have liked to have?
I am not sure, but I want that damn kitty one.

 

[PAGEToap44]

I still have my Dance Dance Kitteh Revolution badge at the top, and it's staying there, forever. I like some of the quiz badges too.

 

[silversnake4133]

Yay badges! :3

How much do you care about badges?
-Meh, I like them but I'm not going to give them names and food dishes yet.

Which of your badges is your favorite?
-Probably my Mudkip badge with Yahtzee's quiz badge at a close second. (Cuz I lieks Mudkips. :3)

Which badge that you don't have yet do you want the most?
-I don't really have one that I want. Mostly because to me badges are like the icing on the cake. They're sweet and delightful in moderation, but when you start craving them, you'll only end up with an upset stomach. :/

Is there some badge you have that you couldn't care less about?
-Not really. I enjoy all of my badges. ^_^

Is there some badge that's unavailabe to you forever that you really would have liked to have?
-No.

 

[imnot]

i love badges'! especially my beat him at his own game one!

 

[Aux]

I don't go out of my way to collect badges. There are certain quizzes or events that I don't bother trying, while there are others that I am all over. I haven't really looked into the badges that we can no longer get but I read teh pony a few times so that is my vote as well.

My favorite however is my Batteries badge.

 

[Captain Pirate]

How much do you care about badges? - I like getting them, and I like having them, so I care quite a bit, yeah.
Which of your badges is your favorite? - My Bioshock quiz winning badge.
Which badge that you don't have yet do you want the most? - Umm... not sure. I guess the 'Epic Poster' Morpheus badge.
Is there some badge you have that you couldn't care less about? - Yeah, the 'Face with a Name' Badge for getting an avatar.
Is there some badge that's unavailabe to you forever that you really would have liked to have? - Yes, the Predator badge from the 18s-over only AVP Contest.

 

[Funkiest Monkey]

How much do you care about badges? About as much as I care for Achievements. I like to have them, because it gives me something to work towards and gives me a sense of... Well, achievement. I don't obsess over them though.

Which of your badges is your favorite? My "Game Over" badge for watching all of Doomsday Arcade. That was a good show.

Which badge that you don't have yet do you want the most? Hmm, I can't think of one.

Is there some badge you have that you couldn't care less about? The one for setting an avatar. Whoopdee-fucking-doo.

Is there some badge that's unavailabe to you forever that you really would have liked to have? THE NEO BADGE. But having been on probation 3 times, that is impossible.

 

[Jezzascmezza]

The cyber-celeb badge would be nice, but that'd be a damn long way off for me since no one has added me yet as a friend...
I'd also like that one for making a thread with over 100,000 views.
I better start thinking of a pretty freaking interesting idea...

 

[Tharwen]

1. I like them. I am an achievement whore, after all.

2. My Murloc Badge.

3. Probably the badge design contest winner badge, but since I haven't even entered that's probably not likely.

4. The 'Linked with facebook account' badge.

5. The Neo... *sniff*
