Is there a definitive guide to PEP, BBBs, etc. I keep seeing these and only sort of have any idea what they are, how you get them, etc. More, what except for icons are they used for? How do you earn them? Decide you want to?

It must be the old Tech. Writer in me, but it annoys me when I can't find out what something is, if I want it or don't?

TIA --

I do have a suggestion however? If you put "PEP" in the search box, you get info about the individual badges, but not the discussions about what this is and why you might want to start getting them. I did try that before I started this thread. If the who/what/why/when/how posts you linked to above had shown up in my search? I wouldn't have started this thread.

What I wanted was what's linked above.

Just sayin'

Do you use mobile view? That might be the reason you didn't see the info/links before.

In desktop view they all appear at the top of the PEP forum.

I didn’t know there was a pep forum!

If you look at forums it’s under skip. And, until the post above I had no idea they were related or what skip was I may add.

Well it sounds like you are on the right track now. More & more BB's are being finalized & published almost every day lately. Good luck with them!
 
Yes, of course, and I accept that blame. In fact, i covet that blame. As does this tiny ad:
