pointless

[krakka]

It might just be me, but after pogo started making personal challenges and started coming out with all these new games and badges, the badges kinda became pointless.  Its not like i dont like playing and earning them anymore.  Its just now that there are all of these badges out here, everyone has all the same badges, and everyone is basically doing the same game as everyone else, and the same thing.  It's almost gotten to the point that some games i dont wanna play just cuz everyone already has that badge and ill just be another person with it, you know nothing special. for example Jigsaw Detective, right away everyone started playing that game and caught up and got all the badges and are just waiting for next month to get the next months, when everyone has it, you just think you are the same as that person, and have to do something better than them, or get a badge they dont have, but someone else already has it, back when club pogo first came out you never had that problem, because you could never go back and do a challenge so at that time i always "wore" my tsunami badge, and no1 else had it, now i look at a room and at least 1 person is "wearing" it.  Maybe it is just me, the only thing i can do is try to get WWW cuz only about 100-200 people have that badge total.  Anyone else no what i am talkin about

I know what you mean. Use to, it was the amount of tokens that made you stand out...then for a while, certain badges. Now...everyone has a gazillion badges and a gazillion tokens...and nothing "stands out" anymore. The only badge I'm truly proud of is WWW, because i like to have lost my account over that...too many snitches ::). And a friendly little pogo employee which will remain nameless. ::)

I don't really mind that everyone has the same badges as I do. For me, it's working towards a specific goal, then I get to choose which of the badges I'd like to display, depending on my mood, or whatever I feel expresses me. I don't really care if the badges are unique or not...what I do care about is that some of these badges have the opportunity to be so pretty or nice and Pogo ends up making them ugly or stupid.

i know what you mean some of the badges r really ugly but i think the premium badges are really nice

I gotta agree some on this point. When Club Pogo started, badges were a point of pride and honor. It was all important to get those badges and never miss a challenge. Everyone trying to keep up with the crowd. I gave up after wasting 3 months finishing Pop Fu degrees for NO badge!

Then along came the "bad people who do things that are illegal that we won't talk about." All rank badges in the same day......get the picture?

Then Pogo comes out with the mobile badges, leaving out a significant percentage of the paying members.

Now the Premiums, again leaving another percentage of the community out.

Everyone started out on a level playing field and now its more what "illegal knowledge" you possess and how big your wallet is.

And I am not talking about auto usage because it actually helped to keep the playing field level allowing players to play the games they suck at or just plain hate.

Anymore i don't concern myself with badges from games I don't like. I play the ones I do like and rank up there. After I finish those I'll mosey on over to Badgehelp and well....... get some badge help.

I am of the opinion that pogo should retire some of the older  badges and make it so they can't be won anymore.  I am a minority in that opinion however.  I joined club pogo on day one and in the old days it was more of an honor to show your badges.  Now everyone has them and can get them if they want to.  I think it would be cool to retire some of the older original badges and make them unavailable, then the people who had those would be unique.  JMHO.  Please don't flame me!   :-*
