Changes to Forum Badges
Although Netbox (formerly Glee Forever Friends) has undergone many changes, one popular feature will be remaining as we make the transition to a forum that celebrates all types of media: badges!
Although Netbox (formerly Glee Forever Friends) has undergone many changes, one popular feature will be remaining as we make the transition to a forum that celebrates all types of media: badges!
We know that half of the fun of being an active member is the collection of badges featuring our favorite characters, so in order to keep this feature central to our forum we're made a few minor changes to the way badges are created, introduced, and distributed to members.
Old Badges
Many of our forum's old Glee badges have been removed and replaced with new badges. This decision was made both to save space for future badges and to give Netbox a fresh start. Glee characters are now allotted a certain number of badges in the store depending on how many episodes they were featured in during the series, so you may notice that some characters have fewer badges in the Badgebox than others. But this doesn't mean that's as many badges as each character will ever have! Future Netbox events will offer opportunities for members to get new badges of their favorite Glee characters.

Buying/Pricing
Badges are available to buy in the Badgebox (formerly the Choir Room). Because we will be offering more than just Glee badges now, badges in the Badgebox will we separated by the type of media from which they come (television, music, etc). Each badge in the Badgebox costs ✪ 1,000 to purchase.
-
Trading Badges
Badge trading has been disabled and will no longer be allowed on the forum. This is both to prevent the trading of moderator/event exclusive badges and to encourage our users to be active on the forum.
-
Event Exclusives
As stated in the Netbox welcome thread, Glee and the creation of Glee badges will no longer be our sole priority. However, to keep the spirit of Glee Forever alive, we do have events planned for the future from which you have the opportunity to win some exclusive badges for Glee and other types of media!
-
Moderator Exclusives
Similar to our old forum, each moderator on Netbox has a handful of exclusive cards of their own to give away. Moderators will have their own requirements for how to earn these badges. They may been received through games, events, or even gifted randomly. Moderators will explain how to receive their exclusive badges separately, so keep an eye out!
