...every badge adds another layer of statistics to check for them, post a note, and add the badges to our displays. That's what computers are for.  ...KRI please cancel all shadow-banning |

I've got over 223 years in FightAids@Home, still waiting for proper recognition!
If this website was designed with anywhere near the level of professionalism one would expect from an IBM-affiliated project, adding new badges should be a trivial thing to do (involving nothing more than the addition of an extra row or column to two arrays of constants). |

Let's stop waiting AND just do it! Just create the badges and you and others can display them in your sig! |

My guess is that WCG Admin is afraid that new members with a single 4core computer will quit earlier if they see members with 200 years in a project. WCG is caught in this trap where they want many members contributing even a little bit all the while knowing that the minority of a few over-achievers are carrying the majority of the load.
I dont believe they cannot find the time to spend the 4 hours to add the badges. It's a policy decision not development decision. IMHO |
