The only way I managed to get a badge was “cheating” by making an important PB friend outside of WC who could boost me here.
Joined /powermonday and BECAUSE people there actively avoided the built in suppression, made enough important follower connections to finally get a badge. 
But not everyone can do that.

This is not cheating. Use out of band boosting is encouraged!

Proof of work!

I had to go seek that though. The badge shouldn't just be about who you know and who you know the only way to get a badge.

If the point is to promote "interesting" content over not, there are plenty of people with the badge making and promoting low effort and boring content engagement farming. And good content hidden.

Sure, if they actually see your posts.
The problem is that if you are posting to a popular channel, or replying to an active thread and you don't have a badge and other people do, your post will be pushed so far down that very few even see it, even if they have priority mode to "Everyone".

Yes,  a good content can make a difference in the way people follow you irrespective of badge..

Take a look at my feed sometime. I do as much as I can to promote other people, especially artists.

I leave thoughtful comments, tip and QC work every single day. I mention people and reply to boost. I participate in /powermonday to spread.

When I didn't have a badge, it was frustrating waiting to be shared! I try!!

That's missing the point, I think. PBers are encouraged to share good content around from ppl with or without PB.

See something you like from someone without PB? Take a min, follow, like and genuinely comment.

We have to curate PBs ourselves, kinda.
Seek new content/channel, seek new casters.

You definitely deserves a follow mate to putting across to all the ears who are not putting an attention to this.
