i couldnt find where to see them..lol.. i am having a hard time navigating MEDHELP..lol.. I remember years ago when it was all so easy.. lol... ive been on here for years.but have not yet succumbed to the new format.. even though. its been around a while..lol.. I see so many here that i knew so long ago!! Its great to see you guys!!
Personally I hate the star/badge system. Makes some look like they know more than others, and some people tend to get very competitive about them. That's all,.... I step down from my Soap Boz.
you can also go to your settings and choose not to have them seen ...
Just post like you always do. Ignore them. I look at it this way, I can answer a post to get stars or I can give my own opinion based on what I feel, which may not always be taken as a good thing? But its an honest one.
ahhh thankyou!! Ive been here since 97..lol.. guess I should post more..lol.
P.S. ... you have to" join" the community to see your stars.
The stars aka "badges" is sort of like a reward system that started a couple of months ago... it identifies the "top answerers" (those who post frequently) in a particular community. If you post a lot in a specified forum... you rack up stars. If you stop posting for a period of time... your star numbers fall.
