Gamification is huge right now and collecting badges are a great member engagement tool. I hope PMI releases a new collection of badges to earn/share!
I have to say I had to lookup the work Thomas :), interesting concept..
Glad you made this comment so I can lookup more on this topic. Saving Changes...

Rami - I'm adding @Rebecca's response just in case it is useful for someone.
Hi George,
Thanks for reaching out! The SME badge is actually a very old badge that was issued when the site was initially launched. It was given to members who were paid contributors. We are actually in the process of revisiting this badge to determine the proper way to award these moving forward.
If you have any other questions let me know,
Rebecca
This is good to know it's under review. Saving Changes...

Agree, as I get more engaged I like looking at the badges and seeing how each individual contributor has earned something.... Saving Changes...
