What badges are
Small icons on your profile card. Dashboard → Design → Profile → Badges lists every badge that exists, what it takes, and whether you have it. Filter by All, Unlocked or Locked.
Three ways to get one
- Buy: the Premium badge arrives with the Premium purchase and is tied to it, not granted separately
- Claim: a badge you are already eligible for has a Claim badge button. The OG badge works this way, for accounts with a UID of 250 or lower. If you are not eligible the button says Ineligible rather than pretending
- Apply: the rest are granted on review. Press Apply now and the card shows Pending review until it is looked at
Applying twice does nothing; the second press tells you your application is already pending.
Showing and hiding
Every unlocked badge has a Show on profile switch. Turn one off and you keep it without displaying it.
A few badges are always visible and have no switch: those are ones where hiding would defeat the point.
Badge glow (Premium)
Badges are one of the eight elements that can glow, with their own color and intensity. The badge switch sits under the badge list, and the master switch that lights everything at once is under Design → Card → Glow.
