I asked it, so I wouldn't be surprised by unexpected things
The badges and rep look really nice, but that is it for me, nothing more nothing less

Axe0 I wouldn't worry about the Goldmember badge - It's the only badge that is awarded just on post count, with no account taken of the actual value of the posts.
It was originally added to the available badges to give members, who were unlikely to be awarded any of the other badges, something to aim for.
It will become available to you when you reach 2000 posts.
The badges you have now are partly based on REP received (SevenPro], or are actually awarded due to the quality of your help on the forums, [Supporter] & [BSOD Team]
I doesn't matter to me if someone forgot to give me a rep. All I need is a thanks
Look as Barman says mate everyone well those of us who have long memberships know the badges are just a recognition thing and I for one find your posts really very helpful and you have taught me a fair bit since being on the forum.
I know it is all a bit concerning for new members but it took me two years to get just the greeen pips when I got those dangly things well that was a just a bonus and really doesn't mean that I ma much good in fact I would be the first to admit to being still a novice. I do this for a hobby because a really bad shoulder fracture gold prospecting stopped my motor cycling and woodwork days and always been into electronics - yes vacuum tubes left me with a hobby I can pursue albeit as an amateur.
You can only have 3 badges showing and some people drop one of the ones they have so they can have the Gold badge showing, but it's up to you which ones you want showing under your name. You could just leave things as they are and not bother showing the Gold badge, that one is after all just for post count, the one's you have already show how well you help out here. :)
