• 
  August 03, 2008 at 23:58 ZombyBrent If I can't sell them, then "I don't need your stinking badges!"
• 
  August 03, 2008 at 23:59 reneguerrero ah, do i qualify?

  August 04, 2008 at 00:04 PatriciaMuller says Hey, I got a red star badge! What are the possible badges?
• 
  August 04, 2008 at 00:07 reneguerrero i'm thinking platinum with a modest single caret in the middle of a star..
• 
  August 04, 2008 at 00:07 reneguerrero like in Blazing Saddles...
• 
  August 04, 2008 at 00:09 martinbogo contacts you -- plurkpix is a community site
• 
  August 04, 2008 at 00:09 martinbogo ( www.plurkpix.com )
• 
  August 04, 2008 at 00:11 reneguerrero under the plurk banner? is it affiliated?
• 
  August 04, 2008 at 00:10 reneguerrero sorry, i'm thinking marketing instead of tech
• 
  August 04, 2008 at 00:16 SharonHH says great idea
• 
  August 04, 2008 at 00:18 RohanPinto thinks every user here is making the " plurk community" grow, be it via their blog or the use if other social sites or just speaking about it....
• 
  August 04, 2008 at 00:18 RohanPinto so everybody needs a badge
• 
  August 04, 2008 at 00:18 RohanPinto if you discriminate..... You loose users.... Do u really want that to happen ?
• 
  August 04, 2008 at 00:24 martinbogo pshaws, Rohan, that's like saying "Everyone exercises, so why should we reward an olypmpic athlete as exceptional."
• 
  August 04, 2008 at 00:24 martinbogo Some people put more than the usual amount of effort, and it's a good thing to recognize the efforts.
• 
  August 04, 2008 at 00:24 TooL thinks point, martinbogo
• 
  August 04, 2008 at 00:34 reneguerrero i suppose so. but i don't do what i do to be recognized. i do it because it helps everyone (myself included) and ultimately society itself
• 
  August 04, 2008 at 00:36 reneguerrero it's a win/win situation. and the history books will be my badge.
• 
  August 04, 2008 at 00:36 reneguerrero ok, a little much?
• 
  August 04, 2008 at 00:41 martinbogo yeah.
• 
  August 04, 2008 at 00:43 reneguerrero
• 
  August 04, 2008 at 00:48 RohanPinto I do what I do, badge or no badge... Setting up a " community" site for plurk is easy... But the tracktion it brings is way more important
• 
  August 04, 2008 at 00:50 RohanPinto so rewarding. "few" select ain't fair... And cmon now... Gimme a iPhone app... Not a web mobile app... And that's a champion
• 
  August 04, 2008 at 00:51 RohanPinto says it takes less than a day to setup an rss aggregator of sorts... Does that qualify ?
• 
  August 04, 2008 at 00:52 RohanPinto I don't intend to discourage folks from building apps...... But
• 
  August 04, 2008 at 00:52 reneguerrero man, and i get shut down for less...
• 
  August 04, 2008 at 00:52 RohanPinto the amount of folks I have tried to convince that plurks netter than the rest is quite substantial...
• 
  August 04, 2008 at 00:54 RohanPinto did I do it for a badge " no", do I want a badge "no"...
• 
  August 04, 2008 at 00:55 RohanPinto asks so.. Does that mean I do less for plurk than someone else ?
• 
  August 04, 2008 at 01:03 PatriciaMuller says wow, is it really that big of a deal?
• 
  August 04, 2008 at 01:06 reneguerrero apparently so...
• 
  August 04, 2008 at 01:08 PatriciaMuller says yeah, apparently...
• 
  August 04, 2008 at 01:07 PatriciaMuller says oops, wrong smilie.

• 
  August 04, 2008 at 01:28 LChamp says i have reservations about sites that have special rewards for "special" users. Every user promotes this site...why are some more special?
• 
  August 04, 2008 at 01:30 martinbogo has found that RohanPinto will often take a contrarian, and controversial view on things.
• 
  August 04, 2008 at 01:30 martinbogo respects, but utterly disagrees with Rohan's logic -and- position on this.
• 
  August 04, 2008 at 01:31 martinbogo The badges aren't a reason to do something, but they are a "thank you"
• 
  August 04, 2008 at 01:30 martinbogo Which in general polite society are accepted with a "thank you, very much appreciated" rather than spit, ire, and acid.
• 
  August 04, 2008 at 01:32 martinbogo (Pardon the hijacking of this plurk Amix .. shall we move it to a new one?)
• 
  August 04, 2008 at 01:32 martinbogo (mind you, declining is just as simple .. "Thank you, but I can't accept.")
• 
  August 04, 2008 at 01:43 Teeg isn't sure it qualifies since my blog isn't solely devoted to Plurk, but I have the 10 Minute Guide To Plurk and calendars
• 
  August 04, 2008 at 01:49 reneguerrero what do we have to do to qualify?
• 
  August 04, 2008 at 02:56 LindaZ Did Teeg mentioned her creation of the Plurkiversary calendar where everyone can post their b'day so we can plurk them the day of
• 
  August 04, 2008 at 02:58 reneguerrero i think womenofplurk is going to be the bomb. better than a community- we take it to the streets...
• 
  August 04, 2008 at 02:58 reneguerrero and get *really* noticed...
• 
  August 04, 2008 at 04:32 IamGay! asks does this qualify? plurkk.com
• 
  August 04, 2008 at 04:33 ThoughtWrong wonders if there will be a way to filter the interesting plurkers page to view pleeps w/ badges and such?
• 
  August 04, 2008 at 04:35 PlurkingPoppa KarmaKlub ?
• 
  August 04, 2008 at 07:41 bloggeries shares his thoughts on this.
• 
  August 04, 2008 at 10:56 PlurkingPoppa commented on bloggeries article and waits with interest for his reply
• 
  August 04, 2008 at 10:56 PlurkingPoppa wonders if the A-Team values honesty or only wants to recognize schmoozers?
• 
  August 04, 2008 at 11:00 amix says we will in the future have all sorts of badges that recognize people that help plurk and the plurk community - this is just one of the first
• 
  August 04, 2008 at 15:36 mojaam says amix: I like the badge idea. I've noticed the invitation badge although deniz invited 6 but has the badge anyway.
• 
  August 04, 2008 at 15:37 mojaam asks you guys probably testing right?
• 
  August 04, 2008 at 15:59 alvin says hehe nice catch, mojaam. we gave deniz that star very early on to test the star system. maybe it's time to ask for it back!
• 
  August 04, 2008 at 18:52 RohanPinto thinks its nice to see that we all disagree and agree with each other on plurk and still be "friends".. what a wonderful world
• 
  August 04, 2008 at 19:07 LChamp says I agree, rohanpinto
• 
  August 04, 2008 at 19:09 reneguerrero me three.
• 
  August 04, 2008 at 19:09 reneguerrero now where's my badge...
• 
  August 06, 2008 at 16:56 Jane Chin likes plurk A-team and amix for recognizing community effort; thanks guys!
• 
  August 06, 2008 at 17:02 Cristian Ciofu says I just launched a blog about Plurk and the site will be launched soon - what do you think? blog.plurkr.net is the blog [for now]
• 
  August 06, 2008 at 17:08 amix says cristianciofu: you now also have a community badge
• 
  August 06, 2008 at 17:08 Cristian Ciofu says thanks amix - I hope my plurkr.net will help Plurk to grow bigger and bigger
• 
  August 06, 2008 at 20:37 Connie amix, our plurkshops.com site is listed as one of the unofficial blogs, but several of us maintain it. Could the badge be put on our blog?
• 
  August 06, 2008 at 21:05 amix says connie: sure thing, just give me the nick names of persons involved
• 
  August 06, 2008 at 21:09 Connie Thanks, amix! connie DebinDenver AmberCadabra BethHarte, MackCollier, TimJackson, pchaney, kdfrawg, teeg.
• 
  August 06, 2008 at 21:17 amix says connie: i have now given the community badge to all of plurkshop's members
• 
  August 06, 2008 at 21:22 Connie Thank you so much, amix. We enjoy using Plurk to have in-depth discussions like the plurkshops.
• 
  August 06, 2008 at 21:23 panthar says we don't need no steenkin badges!
• 
  August 06, 2008 at 21:23 panthar says err.. but they are still pretty nice
• 
  August 07, 2008 at 04:10 Guىtavo wants badges
• 
  August 07, 2008 at 09:19 miketempleton says I love this idea. It shows that the A-Team is more involved than just running the site. They're also out there supporting users.
• 
  August 07, 2008 at 11:19 CeeDubb : Are my Plurk, FAQ, and Wishlist sections of my site enough?
• 
  August 07, 2008 at 17:03 reneguerrero I just started womenofplurk. is it to early to get recognized??
• 
  August 08, 2008 at 05:03 leonniefm asks if amix & The A-team has checked on plurkertati.com & plurkdev.com ? mahadewa is the guy behind it, he made us Plurkmark, very useful
• 
  August 08, 2008 at 05:03 leonniefm coz I haven't seen any badges on his profile & I think he deserve one.
• 
  August 08, 2008 at 09:39 PlurkingPoppa thinks it's Martin who often tries to discredit peeps (Rohan in this instance) who point out Plurk shortcomings ...
• 
  August 08, 2008 at 09:45 PlurkingPoppa thinks that like karma, the badge *are* a reason to do something because they are judgmental, do rank contributions, and cause competition
• 
  August 08, 2008 at 09:47 PlurkingPoppa wonders why amix immediately responded to Christian with a badge but is still ignoring Poppa's much older blog?
