The active badge is going away. Spammy accounts are aggressively gaming the system to get the badge. Making the rules stricter just makes it harder for legitimate users. We’re past the point where a simple rule based system will work. We need something better.

Introducing the Power Badge, a new ranking system from Warpcast. It uses a PageRank-like approach to recursively find power users who are active and post content that the rest of the network finds interesting. Unlike the active badge, it does not have a set of rules that you can follow to earn the badge.

Power badges show up on user profile, just like the old active badges. They're intended to be a signal of quality to users browsing Warpcast, and to frame developers and other devs building in the ecosystem. Warpcast will make power badges available over an API.

How does a frame dev know a user has this badge?
