I have been crunching for WCG for a good few years but the badges only seem to go up to 2 years.
I have over 10 years on at least 1 project, yet the badge only serves for 2 years crunching. Come on WCG how about giving some reward for the time spent crunching, wasting electricity all to keep your project going. Without us you don't exist, so how about putting some thought towards us. Even simple rewards like badges can help, but as far as I can see nobody cares about us doing that crunching for you. Time for that to change. |

@ castlerig
----------------------------------------You are just the latest in a long line of crunchers to raise this topic which has been discussed ad nauseam Someday, possibly when/if the recent Survey results are released, we may hear from WCG if further badges are under consideration or in the pipeline. Until then keep crunching.  You might want to consider getting a 'SNURK Globe Sig' see thread which provide a visual indication of overall crunching achievement. ---------------------------------------- [Edit 1 times, last edit by jonnieb-uk at Apr 28, 2013 11:25:49 AM] |

Castlerig, one way to show your true acheivement is to get a Snurk sig file, this gives a summary of projects & overall crunchine.
----------------------------------------I'm sure your's would look very impressive! I'm just a beginner!

Castlerig, as Mamajuanauk has just beaten me to suggesting, to highlight your overall contribution to WCG, you may be interested in obtaining one of SNURK's really snazzy Signature bars (as demonstrated at the foot of my, and many other forum posts). If so, all you need do, is request one here -> I made a new forum signature.
----------------------------------------As to further badges higher than 2 years, I'm really hopefull that, at some stage soon, there'll be an extension to them (thing is, it's all about priorities - the WCG staff are few in number, and along with working on things such as new badges, they've also got to juggle numerous other items - not least, in getting new projects up and running as well as ensuring that things continue running smoothly across the already active projects).  |

I have been crunching for WCG for a good few years but the badges only seem to go up to 2 years. ... Time for that to change. There was a survey. You did express these views there right? About missing SNURK Globe Sigs...did someone forget to pay their dues?  ---------------------------------------- [Edit 1 times, last edit by BladeD at Apr 28, 2013 12:24:53 PM] |

The sig's first two weeks are free, afterwards it's 0.25€ per month.
