User blog comment:MisterWoodhouse/Fandom is upgrading to a modern version of MediaWiki/@comment-36009152-20190708161519/@comment-36009152-20190710235100

Days, weeks, months, eons, the anticipation is too much!

"I have nothing to announce regarding badges."

Does this secretly mean that the badges really are being phased out, is it code language that even the collected ones will disappear. Maybe if you write it backwards it spells “your badges can be thrown overboard with a life jacket made out of lead, how do you like me now, beesh”.

I grew progressively more insane gathering the badges in a certain order and you would undoubtedly be jealous of my splendid collection which looks too lovely, so hope they can find a home on this new MediaWiki thingy.
