As far as I know the only person eligible for such a badge would be Carcer and/or Launchycat. But even then I wouldn’t like to presume.
 
So the Mystery badge isn’t that. I mean, daaaaang, we don’t get around that much.

Is the Mystery Badge…people you’ve met in real life? Feel free to not answer if you want to keep it secret. Well, please reply, of course, but you don’t have to confirm or deny it.

Considering that most screencaps, meta, obligatory pony, image macros, exploitable memes, etc. are going to be safe, I think high-volume lower-score works for that badge. 100 is a little low, though. That’s like 70% of safe pics (36k of 51k). Bump it up to 150 and it’s about 20% (11k of 51k).
 
For the Pony Plot Provider badge, if we’re gonna go with the same ratio, then it should be also be 150 (18k of 90k). If we’re going by the same volume, then it should be 200 (also around 11k). There’s actually less than 3k (questionable OR explicit) pics with score.gte:350. So I imagine that badge wouldn’t be very common if it stays at 350.
 
Edit: Forgot to take suggestive pics into account. And forgot that Pony Plot badge only needs 10 pics at the moment. Oops.

@dt  
But screencaps, meta, obligatory pony, image macros, and exploitable memes don’t count toward the Fine Arts badge.
 
Not even my edited screencaps would count toward it, since both “edit” and “screencap” negate it.

It’s been two months and I never got my arts badge. You decided to run it once and then never did it again, didn’t you, SP? :)

@Vree  
Do you have 200 safe pictures with a score above 100? Or do you mean a second different art badge?

@Vree  
Blame Clover. There’s a pending feature request to make my life significantly easier when handing these out.

@The Smiling Pony  
Alright, then:
 
Clover! I’m blaming you!  
(Clover: Me? Why?)  
Me: I don’t know, Smiling told me that I should.

@Vree  
Added it, but I still need Clover to add a few things to make life easier…

Translators could get a badge. Guys who post translations for obscure languages in the comment section. (Korean etc.)
 
Their contributions are brief, but so useful it would be worth awarding. :D

Out of mild curiosity: what’s the order of the gems? Ruby would be highest, I’m guessing.

@Vree  

 
Si. Me gusta.

@Solitude  
Emerald, Ruby, Sapphire, Diamond, secret #5 no one will ever get.
 
 
@Ferrotter  
Ideas on name / icon? 16x16 isn’t much to work with.

@The Smiling Pony  
The gamer in me is yelling “pokemon!” but that ain’t it I’ll wager.

Finally got around to adding a translator badge. If you know anyone that helps out with translations, point them out to me please.

@The Smiling Pony  
Quick look, I see these two.
 
LOVE the badge, by the way!

@The Smiling Pony  
Why won’t anyone get it? Did you set the requirement to some absurdly high amount?

@WinterCutieMark  
Absurd, no; more than we’d expect anyone (sane) to donate for an MLP imageboard, yes.

@The Smiling Pony  
were the gem badges introduced retroactively? Or were all those money bits I donated before pointless?

@azader  
They have been, or at least that was the plan… I can see a ruby on your account, at least.
 
And I wouldn’t qualify donations to help keep the site running as pointless over a missing 16x16 icon =/

@The Smiling Pony  
I know, i know. I can confirm that fuzzy feeling the donation page talks about. I just thought i would have gotten further. I will just donate harder from now on. :P

@azader  
I’ll bug one of the coders about it when I can.

@The Smiling Pony  
That wont stop me from donating harder.

@azader  
Speaking of which, there’s probably a bug in there somewhere ‘cause feeling warm’n fuzzy, I ain’t. Or maybe I should try donating more. I’unno.
