When these things showed up on Wednesday, I was just as confused as the rest of you probably were. I went to the Invision site to find out what all this was about, and the story is that the badges and levels are there to foster discussion.
Most of you don’t know me, since I am a long time lurker. But I can tell you this: I have posted more in the last three days than I have in the previous 12 years (I’ve actually been here since old yeller, but it took me awhile to set up an account).
Yeah, there is certainly some kind of endorphin rush from seeing yourself go from newb to apprentice or whatever, but it does encourage some of us introverts to share our thoughts and maybe even make a positive contribution to the discussion. So yes, as Invision folks think this is a good thing, I have to agree.
