How would this work in practice? I wouldnāt want my community account linked to my bank account to confirm how big a Monzo user I am. And if itās self certify, I donāt think itāll do what you want it to doā¦
Iām not keen on this idea to be honest. I donāt think it should be forced on community users to disclose how extensively they use Monzo.
Related, I dislike that my badge shows I invested in Monzo even though whoever setup the forum probably thought it would be considered a perk.
In any forum Iāve used, Iāve always considered standard forum metrics (i.e. number of posts, number of likes) to be good-enough metrics to help gauge how much weight to give to an opinion.
This implies that if someone is not getting paid in Monzo (thatās the definition of full Monzo) then their suggestions would matter less.
What if they are suggesting features important to them so that they can go Full Monzo. I think community works quite well and everyone should be treated the same.
I donāt like the badge either Iād rather not have it.
Actually @simonb are you able remove these rocket badges if we ask?
Unfortunately removing your badge involves removeing you from the group this badge is prescribed too.
There is no group so it wouldnāt matter to me tbh
Nope no privileges AFAIK
How is your trust level affected buy being part of the group? Tell you what if you donāt want the badge maybe monzo can put me in the invested group and take you out
Not that ever seen or heard. Sometimes a badge is just a badgeā¦
The investor badge has nothing to do with any ātrust levelsā it is just a badge that is allocated.
itās the numbers that are the ātrust levelsā
So basically you want to pick and choose who you listen to, you can do that anyway.
Someone not using Monzo as their main account does not mean they donāt have the knowledge. It could mean they know too much about it, so donāt want to use it exclusively, or they get benefits from other accounts so donāt want to switch.
Iāve been with Monzo before it launched, donāt post of the forum that much, but according to you my opinion has no relevance, because Iām not full Monzo and donāt have a high number of the forum.
Itās a very short sighted opinion, to need to have markers on whether you want to listen to an opinion.
Also, if you have an investor badge, thereās no longer any indication of your trust level.
A newcomer could have a badge and never post, if they post just once does that mean the should be trusted just because they have an investor badge?
the answer is obvious - trust none without the M
No not at all, youāre taking it too literal, of course everyones opinion is valued. I suppose it is just an extension of the current ābasicā, āmemberā and āregularā badges which to my knowledge doesnāt offend anyone and nobody has said to someone that an opinion doesnāt matter because āyouāre only a basic memberā.
I just meant that if replies were split then it could help sway people either way and in terms of Monzos view. As a business it would certainly help with decisions if they knew that a new feature was in high demand from non-monzo customers as it would likely encourage them to switch
Haha you mention this everywhere now.
Shhhhh. The first rule of private lounge is you donāt talk about private lounge
Itās like Badger Pay all over again
I donāt know what that is but now I have the badger song stuck in my head, so thanks for that
Just remember to always leave home with your badger
