Hi, have just joined and waiting for my SIM.
What is the benefit of winning badges in the forum?

@DavidB-3335558 I think the purpose of the badges it to keep 'enthusiastic users' (geeks) like us motivated and providing customer service for free.
Personally, I've reached a stage where I realise this isn't a great use of my time and energy.

@DavidB-3335558 In truth, absolutely none!
In theory, the further up the 'greasy pole' you climb, the more chance of people thinking that you know what you are talking about and perhaps taking your advice. (Little do they know! ๐ค)

You would have thought that Smarty would give some free data or other incentive to people who are working hard at answering questions on their behalf.

@DavidB-3335558 Unfortunately not the case. To be fair, many moons ago, I did once receive a token of appreciation for my input.
