Achievements = Badges Obsessed with badges = Badgers

I noticed that with the release of new achievements there has been a flurry of excitement among badgers in the game. I would caution those unfamiliar with badgers to stay out of their way.

The badger is renowned for its power, tenacity, and irascible temperament. Few Glitchen care to tangle with an enraged badger. Badgers will stop at nothing to earn more badges.

Badgers are aggressive when cornered. Do not directly confront them about their addiction. Though their first instinct is to evade or seek shelter, they will attack you if provoked.

Badge addiction and badge abuse affects nearly 1 in 5 Glitchen families. Take steps to recognize the early stages of this addiction in yourself and others, to prevent prolonged hardships down the road. Successful recovery is not an easy task, and is a constant, life-long struggle. With the release of new badges, even a reformed badger can relapse at any given time.

You might have a few friends that are badgers, and you might even trust them with a key. But badgers are always unpredictable, one can never truly know who they really are or what they are capable of.

The point is, how do you know the badger isn't a crazy glue sniffer? "Building model airplanes" says the little badger; well, we're not buying it. He sneaks into your house once, that's all it takes. The next thing you know, there's allspice missing off the dresser, and your daughter's knocked up. I seen it a hundred times.

  • Hahaha! I'm definitely a Badger. It may drive me mad, but it does build discipline! *flexes*

    ...I don't steal things though.

    Unless they're on the ground.

    *shifty eyes*

  • I may represent the other kind of badger: I pursue them relentlessly. When I log in, a goal is get one badge. BUT...unlike other, I don't spam Global begging for this and that. With social badges, I often put them off for months; ignoring the calls to meet at a  crowded street to do something with stuff I really don't have. 

    I just may drive my husband nuts while he's playing, "Wait...did you check your achievements?!"

  • I'm able to admit the first step but I can't seem to get past it.

    My name is Magic Monkey, and I taste piggy plops every day just in case there's a hidden badge for doing it a lot of times.

  • I am a total badger, but I would never beg in Global - heck, I don't even go into Global. I am determined to get my badges, but I'll do it myself, thanks :)

    Speaking of which, I need to make some copper ingots... ;)
