User blog:Adam Carl Castillo/About the badges.

So yeah I've seen the badges that have been re-added (or at least that's what I have been told) to the wiki. A good (re)addition to the site. But I have a small number of questions that need to be answered, and maybe discuss.

Here they are: I guess that's it. Please, I'm in desperate need of sure answers to these questions, no sarcastic ones please! Thank you!
 * 1) What's the main purpose of the badges anyway? Do they do anything good?
 * 2) Second, will the badges and the points acquired be a new requirement for users that will apply as staff of this wiki?
 * 3) Is it necessary to edit and get badges and a big amount of points? or is it completely optional and users can decide whether they want badges or not?
