Apr 18, 2012 at 18:09 | comment | added | Lorem Ipsum | @animuson Yeah, badges being out of order by itself isn't convincing (I've gotten vox-populi before suffrage in a similar vein), but your example is a question that I can easily believe would've quickly gotten the views if posted at the right time and place; not the one mentioned in the OP :) | |
Apr 18, 2012 at 18:08 | comment | added | Mysticial | It's definitely possible to get the badges in quick succession. I got Booster and Publicist only 10 min. apart - which might be an artifact of when the scripts run. But yes, there's definitely something fishy going on here. +1 | |
Apr 18, 2012 at 18:06 | comment | added | animuson StaffMod | @Hogan: How would it be any different than a user making 500 bogus edits to posts, or a user creating duplicate accounts to upvote their own posts? It's not appropriate behavior and shouldn't go unpunished. | |
Apr 18, 2012 at 18:03 | comment | added | Hogan | Is it really farming? The user is meeting the requirement of that badge after all... | |
Apr 18, 2012 at 17:57 | comment | added | animuson StaffMod | This user's badges were also awarded out of order (20 minutes apart though). | |
