Title: "Badges of Rank"
Post by: alanclare on October 15, 2010, 01:05:35 PM: Wos all these badges that have started appearing by people's names all of a sudden?
Title: Re: "Badges of Rank"
Post by: Chris Harte on October 15, 2010, 01:07:05 PM: They've been around for ages, although looks like they're being re-implemented now that we have new forum software.

Post by: PaulTheVillan on October 15, 2010, 02:31:06 PM: They were on the old forum, it's just took a couple of months to install them on the new software.

Post by: ADVILLAFAN on October 15, 2010, 03:10:36 PM: Well the Rat is Rizzo the Rat.

Recognise them all. I think that some of you must not have 'The Muppet's Christmas Carol' on DVD, for shame....

And the other one looks like Sam the Eagle as far as I can tell.

Post by: olaftab on October 15, 2010, 05:59:27 PM: New software and re-ranked status.
I am really pleased to step back fron "Coach" to "International" again. I thought I had a few thousand posts left in me at international level when I was made up to coach last year!!

Post by: Phil from the upper holte on October 15, 2010, 06:11:33 PM: Glad to see them back :)
Title: Re: "Badges of Rank"
Post by: Phil from the upper holte on October 15, 2010, 06:13:16 PM: Who's the one one with the hook nose? How many posts do I need to be him? I also think animal should be the last one rather than Kermit :)

Post by: Legion on October 15, 2010, 06:27:20 PM: Gonzo.

Title: Re: "Badges of Rank"
Post by: Drummond on October 15, 2010, 06:47:11 PM: The 3rd one is Sam the Eagle I think.

Post by: olaftab on October 15, 2010, 06:50:32 PM: At 10000+ you get these >:( :( :'( :-[
Title: Re: "Badges of Rank"
Post by: D.boy on October 15, 2010, 07:24:45 PM: When you hit 10,000 posts the muppets change into the following letters D.I.V.O.R.C.E.
Title: Re: "Badges of Rank"
Post by: darren woolley on October 15, 2010, 07:31:41 PM: I am glad the muppets are back long may they continue.
Title: Re: "Badges of Rank"
Post by: cdbearsfan on October 16, 2010, 04:16:41 AM: It seems that when you get to 20,000 posts you lose your muppets. Or maybe they have special muppet powers so only they can see them?

Anyway, this is all the Muppets I could find...

The one directly above Kermit looks a bit like Mike Jeffries.

I would't dare request other changes - if that took months ;)

(sorry Martin)
