Thanks for this post.  I was wondering how that badge was earned!

Shinyyyyyy :-) Was wondering how I got it. Does this mean we can expect more badges in the future ;))?

[Thomas Schlegel]

Yeah, badges are awesome - more of that gamification stuff, please.

First a badge to you, @Jeremy Mfor the new real-life profile picture 😊

[Monique vdB]

@Jeremy M very nice! :) 

And yes, more will be coming. I love badges too. :)

@Thomas SchlegelHehehe :)) What is that board game fair in Essen on your profile? Seems pretty sweet.

[Thomas Schlegel]

@Jeremy M It's the world's biggest board game convention and it's simply called "Spiel". Doors open in three weeks :)

[Monique vdB]

Hi @[deleted] -- looks like you haven't completed all the items yet. What are you missing?

@Duncan Muchiri, looks like you figured it out but for the future it's View profile > Edit profile.

And here is my comment!!

[Monique vdB]

Well played, @wkevindavis -- but the next badges coming up won't be so easy ;)

[Eric Wersel]

Are badges something that'll be rolled into Confluence?

[Monique vdB]

@Eric Wersel I like the idea! No current plans for this, but we have a community Jira if you'd like to submit it as a suggestion.
