Will your badges be stripped from you next month ?

Nope - once you have reached one level you're on to the next.

I love Badger too :smile:

I adored WitW growing up...

I was a massive fan of badger from animals of farthing wood too.... when he got dementia I was rather distraught. :erm:

If you don't sob your heart out over this:

you're not the woman I think you are. Badgers seem to be the go-to animal of choice for teaching children about death and old age. This is from Badger's Parting Gifts and it's all about old badger snuffing it. The picture of the mole in the denims sobbing is just *blows nose vigorously* too much to bear.

Dementia in a kids TV show? That is some heavy salad!

It was heavy.... that programme used to make me cry a lot as a kid.

Simple - we love badgers.

There are :smile:

And you are welcome to suggest badges for other forums. This is just an initial roll out with three badges so see what people think.

Discussion is here in news and feedback thread http://www.thestudentroom.co.uk/showpost.php?p=52891961&postcount=87

So glad you liked the surprise BTW :h:

Here is some initial info http://www.thestudentroom.co.uk/content.php?r=9581-What-are-TSR-badges

If you have any questions just quote me in :smile:

I hope this doesn't spell the end of the rep system. I have worked hard for my gems. If they're to be done away with I propose The Student Room Group compensate members. Say, £1 for every 10 reps. I currently have 5426, which would earn me £542.60.

Breaks my heart and Moley is such a sweetie. Badgers just seem so wise.... Right I'll have to get the WitW book from my folks and have a good read.
