I see players will now only visit places containing several badges, save reason 2 die (is that right? I always confuse the name)... If you look at 99% of the front page is [Insert place name here] *BADGES* and you see 100 or more people in it.

You see, this creates somewhat of a cycle.

Players visit places with badges, thus giving the map maker more money, he then invests in even more badges, gaining more visits at all his places, which keeps his/her place at page 1. People who don't have badges/places not on the front page will probably not get visits due to either people busy going to the places that will probably have upwards of 10 badges, or the fact that the place owner hasn,t really made the place well known.

Catch my drift?

the 5-7 year olds of this community think they NEED to earn a pointless badge.

Yes, i do see a problem with the new system, perhaps a limit on the badges that a place can have would fix this?

And those 5-7 year olds make up maybe 50% of our users.

One of my badges will be rare... But when my place gets on the front page they can really only earn one of them unless they are in my group or find something

Yes I catch it. I don't have BC so that will mean no badges, no visitors.

I doubt that


Little kids will beg their parents for bc or tbc, so that they can make badges, they and this will increase the cycle

The badge system is already being abused, if it keeps up no one is going to be interested in it.
