People around here can be funny. When reading a comment don't take it personally as everyone here knows we should

 

 

always attack arguments not the people behind them. But if you see some sarcastic jokes, it happens. With time you

help us make sure the community is safe.

I've only got a couple to collect - but can't seem to.

I was the first person to post via Lynx on IPv6 though (I believe) in 2010 - does that give me a special badge?

Robots aren't people.

They can't join unions.

I can't imagine wanting a badge this badly :)

Is it a case of "he who dies with the most badges wins"?

The creation of a simple post while I had nothing better to do, hardly strenuous.

Achieved more than a number of other posts around here . . . .
