Nicknames and Badges: Feedback!

Contributor: Jaimes Jaimes
Hey guys! So we here at Eden are considering coming up with a badge and nickname system for your profiles. They can identify toy or sexual preferences, orientations, and possibly review/activity accomplishments. I have a list put together, and I would love some feedback about hits and misses. PLEASE bear in mind I have a strange sense of humor, and intend ZERO offense, but will apologize ahead of time if I hit a nerve.

If you see one that feels inappropriate or possibly offensive, please politely let me know. None of these are set in stone, I am just looking for some feedback and direction. The nicknames are intended to fit in line with the sex positive community we have, and they are meant to be fun and funny, while communicating a sexy-smart attitude, something our community does a brilliant job of rallying. So, here they are! Let me know what you guys think:

I only took a quick glance so will provide feedback once I have more time to think about them. However, right off the bat I noticed there is no badge or recognition for video reviews. Perhaps badges to distinguish number of reviews and type (regular vs. adult)?

I think they're cute and would be useful as markers of people's achievements. I don't believe I saw anything for someone who is consistently nominated for review rumbles, though. Or one for someone who has won the most amount of rumbles.

I think the Obi Wan needs a female version. Though, I seem to be having a difficult time coming up with an all-knowing/all-seeing female at the moment.

Obi-Wan can be 'Jedi Master' instead, or something to that effect.

I think the 400 reviews title is awesome.

'Riddle Me This' is appropriately snarky (so I love it).

I call dibs on 'Vintage Vixen'.

Still in beginning stages of ideas. No use in 200 nicknames or "sexpressions" as I like to think of them if no one likes them at all. Let me know if we are on the right track.

The 400 mark one cracks me up every time I read it.

Ah, totally missed that with so many in the list. However, I still think it would be great to recognize number and type as separate achievements. There are reviewers that have made a few hundred video reviews, they should be recognized for it. There are also only a very few that do adult videos (myself included) and it would be nice to be recognized for that achievement.

Totally considered! Will write that one down for brainstorming. I think that perhaps the achievements list should cover video reviews as well.

Luckily, the phrase isn't gender specific, so let's say that it's size queen/king!

I would definitely like to see something for adult reviewers vs regular videos and something to do with the amount as well.

This one stood out to me:

Peggy Bundy – Gender-bending couples (pegging)

While pegging can be a part of gender bending play it doesn't have to be and conflating one with the other just reinforce that stereotypes and by extension all the stereotypes about sexuality and gender roles that stereotype is built upon.
