Active badge needs a revamp. 

We’re working on figuring out the right trade off between accessible and useful.

One thing I found weird, a lot of spammers have it, while some thoughtful users that I'd think are active are not. Would be nice to give it a nudge!

Same opinion here. I had to start unfollowing accounts that over post and/or reply with useless replies to each and every cast just to look active. I understand the need for growth but that system makes a potentially great place in a place for spammers and alikes. I'd like FC to reward quality rather than quantity

I am also wondering if it what makes it different/better than X so far is just the minor number of users or if it will really be possible to build a much better SN experience by implementing the right tools. Encouraging the F4F thing surely helped growing in numbers, but quality has quickly gone down...

Damn, this is a difficult balance between F4F gang and insightful club. Once this thing gets bigger, it kinda shifts irreversibly.
