True. @Lim But, I'll be fine with them as soon as the links are done, showing your BB posts, Paintings, and the actual number of everything you've done. It should also tell you your average awesome ranking like the old system did, so I'm still awesome lol.
I think it's ironic how the Awesome point system was replaced by badges; (arguably), it was to deter spam, and I can see the logic in that. But now, some users would just spam to max their badges, which makes it no better than before. And spam might even be more difficult to spot without the points listed.
@MarieCutie If you see that you don't have all of the current badges, that means you haven't started something. For example, if you don't have the Artist badge, then you haven't saved any paintings yet.
@LinkZelda I'm sure there will be a badge for Saviis.
He means the "stats" on profiles where it would show the exact number of BB comments, blogs, paints, etc. Those are probably gone and not coming back, but the links to BB post records and the various albums will be added when all the badges are released.
