Okay Dave &/or Trish, we've speculated a while now. Why don't you guys let us know what the true meaning of it is if there is a specific meaning. Or was it meant to be up to our own imagination?
Can you clue us in?

The true meaning of the question mark microbadge? Shrug! There is none, or if there is one I wish someone would tell me! I created it on a whim and after creating it decided I didn't know what it was for but I added it anyway!

Thanks guys. At least we won't speculate anymore. Total goofballs? I think not. You just showed some whimsy & that's a good thing. Big Grin

Well, I looked and I looked and I looked, but I just don't see a badge for goat herders. Sigh. Poor little second class livestock. Whistling

We just added the shrug.

Probably not adding any more. Why do you ask? I'm all ears!

I instructed the system to give a Charter ATP member badge to everyone who had posted before one day last week.

I went ahead and did it again now. All 393 people who have posted to ATP during the last couple weeks are now charter members.


But Sharon didn't tell me about ATP until August! Crying Big Grin
