What Is the New Badge?

[vickiespencer]

I just noticed @mjensen415 has created a new badge. Right now it is a ❓and says Proficient Copy. Could this be a new badge for all to the Fiverr Forum members who copy and past the same old messages? Or is it for those who copy other users posts and repeat them in the same thread?

Hmm, that’s weird! I’ve never seen that badge before. I guess you’d have to become a grand master before becoming a proficient copy 🤔

You say you understand the mentality behind post cloning? That makes two of us!

All those couch potatoes, sitting there copy/pasting, are just imi-taters.

Someone stealing my words? Why, I'm beside myself!

Cat got your tongue and don't know what to say? Just dupli-cat!

I've heard copy-pasta can be good, as long as it's seasoned with velocity. (distance over thyme)

Okay, that last one was really bad.

I don't like how "Proficient Copy" sounds (not to mention I have no idea what it's supposed to mean). Perhaps I should stop posting completely, so I never reach that rank? 😸

I'm thinking of using my Seller status to sell my badges to Newbies in order to save them time trying to earn them with five word posts that don't contribute to the thread they are posted within.

I think it's not a bad idea! Can we be partners in entrepreneurship? LOL

It makes sense for either case. The location of the badge puzzles me a bit, considering that it should be in another position because in the order that they are showing an evolution of quality but perhaps that does not mean anything for this new badge.

I had the Grand Master Badge for one minute. 

 

Then it disappeared and without earning anymore points it was replaced by this badge: ⬇️

 

Messaged @mjensen415 to find out why I had the Grand Master for such a short time and now have the Proficient Coyp badge. So we will see what his reply is.

It looks like Fiverr is in the works of adding another badge that is higher than Grand Master, however they weren't prepared for a content king like Vickie to achieve the Grand Master status so quickly. 🤯😁
The forum is very new. 

"Proficient" is the title for the Tier 10 badge.
I've had a decent amount of web development experience in the past and generally the easiest way to create a new "element" is to duplicate a previous one, rather than create from scratch.
I believe the programmer has duplicated the "Proficient" badge as a template to create a new badge.
So it seems that the forum has added "copy" to the new badge since it can't have another element with the same label.

And since it isn't finished, probably no points threshold was established and since the ranking system is automated, once Vickie achieved the Grand Master badge (and since a higher threshold has not been established for the "new" badge), it will immediately upgrade to the next tier, just as happens when achieving the point threshold for a new tier.

@davidstrongvo Thank you for your insight. As I said I have contacted @mjensen415. I was feeling a bit cheated out of being the Fiverr Forum's First Grand Master. So I messaged two m ods and @mjensen415about it. One of the m ods was kind enough to return my message and said that indeed it was more than likely an error that @mjensen415 would correct soon.

I didn't see those type of badge on my profile yet!
