Dear Linux Community,
We’re excited to announce the launch of three brand-new achievement badges designed to recognize and celebrate your exceptional contributions!
Whether you’re sharing deep technical insights, helping others solve tricky problems, or simply providing valuable resources, these badges are our way of saying thank you for making our community stronger.
Bronze Badge: Kernel of Wisdom
This badge is for those who share insightful posts or helpful advice that strengthen the core of the community, much like the kernel forms the core of Linux. This badge recognizes valuable contributions that help others learn and solve problems.
Silver Badge: Root of Knowledge
Taking it up a notch, the Root of Knowledge badge is awarded to members who display a higher level of expertise and share content that has a significant impact on the community. Your posts and guides have become a go-to resource, much like having root access to unlock the full potential of a system.
Gold Badge: Master of Unix
The pinnacle of achievement, the Master of Unix badge, is reserved for elite members whose exceptional posts go above and beyond. If your contributions have set the standard for excellence and helped shape the community, this badge is for you. It reflects the highest level of mastery and dedication.
How to Earn These Badges:
These badges aren’t just handed out—they’re earned through exceptional posts, guides, solutions, and overall helpfulness. Our Admin, moderators and forum Leaders (Trust Level 4) will manually award them based on the quality and impact of your contributions.
We look forward to seeing more great content and rewarding those who continue to make Linux Community a great place to learn, share, and connect.
Please allow a few weeks as we review previous posts eligible for these badges.
Happy posting, and may the terminal be ever in your favor! 
— The Linux Community Team
P.S. / EDIT:
Once achieved, the following badges can also be used as your title:
Admired, Devotee, Champion, Regular, Leader, and Master of Unix.
(Visible on your profile page and next to your username in forum posts.)
