earn or to the number of badges shown in our signature lines?

I just got my 16th badge this morning and my 1st badge seems to have dropped off so only 15 are showing.  In less than a week I'll complete another challenge and earn another badge.  Will the older badges continue to drop off so that only 15 show at a time?

there is no limit to how many you can have, only display, I believe you can select favourites.

It makes sense to not overload the forum with everyone showing loads of badges

The limit was 12 showing for the longest and has just been upped to 15 in the last few months :tu:

Yeah I think Micah upped it so that people could show off more badges.

Can you hide them on the fly, or only when you reach the max?

I don't think you can.  It never occurred to me that someone wouldn't want to see them after they went to the effort of earning them.

There are over 80 available atm.

I'm not sure if 15 is a good or bad cutoff point. I think we originally bumped from 12 to 15 because there was an issue with a new badge and we couldn't figure out why it wasn't showing up... turned out to be a config thing and nothing to do with favourites or limits.

I wished you could set them to show on mobile cause I never know if people are getting them if I am awarding them when I am on my phone :D

I like seeing them on my profile along with everyone else's :like:

I also liked seeing the post count without having to click on the avatar but that is a whole other quibble :D

Could we bump this up to 20 or 21 showing? Trying to relive the past as it takes 21 badges (among other things) to become an Eagle Boy Scout.

It is fun looking at the different badges that people have earned.

We're working on getting it signed off back stage. Nagging will only slow the process up, patience please.

Impressive Badge collection.  Seriously, you too, Ponch. I gotta step up my game.  :D
