What is this earning badge nonsense about? How do I opt out? This is for kids, not professionals who use Atlassian products for their business.
Hey @Rhys ,
If you are talking about the badges on the community platform I don't believe you can.
However, it's just part of some gamification that will help/entice people on providing community support. Even from a businness perspective I don't see any harm in it.
Thanks for your reply Dirk. I was more worried about the random notifications, rather than the badges themselves, because I was in the middle of doing something important for work and kept getting these annoying and distracting notifications turning up. I was able to turn off the notifications, so that fixed the main issue. It is still a bit strange to me that we can't opt out though.
I don't want to re-type the stuff I said about it last week, so I'lll just point you to https://community.atlassian.com/t5/Atlassian-Account-questions/Is-ii-possible-to-opt-out-of-badges/qaq-p/1947678?utm_source=atlcomm&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=immediate_general_answer&utm_content=topic where there's a bit more info.
I am still annoyed by the whole "notification bell" icon in the upper-right. It's constantly trying to tell me I've "earned new badges!" and won't go away until I go look at them. What a waste of time! Yes, I have figured out how to turn off the email notifications about them, at least.
Thanks Nic, it was your link above that helped me turn off the notifications
Glad to help a bit, sorry I can't do more than just help turn off the emails.
