I have a private message now saying I do qualify for a trophy just like Bob has, but if I activate it, one of my other badges will disappear. I think the whole thing is misguided and unnecessary. Just a distraction that doesn't seem to have a lot meaning as we don't know how badges are earned. "Likes" we understand because we hand them out.

So I had to look up how you get a trophy. Your post has to be rated as the best answer in the thread.
I didn't know you could do that and I don't see where you can mark an answer as the best.
Once we figure that out, we can get everyone trophies. It reminds me of the reputation thing they had a while back.
I wonder if you have to be a premium member to be able to mark answers as the top answer.

That quote alone I'd rank the best one of this topic. I completely agree we don't need no stinkin' trophies, but that quote will earn you one.
I now have a new phrase to use.

Good points brought up in this thread.
I see this as a extension as the participation trophies handed out. Serious aduts, I hope, don't need the recognition for doing something that doesn't need rewards.
Second, it's a typical action of IT, and most politicians, people who realize they have the system working and they fear if they don't do something someone will realize they are no longer needed, or very least aren't as valueable because all they basically need are a couple of baby sitters to make sure the system keeps running smoothly. I juar wish they, again both IT people and politicians, would just they finger out of procedure that are working fine.
