That's right, all of this badge hunting is overlooked! I think that was FinnManuisa because I saw on his wall that SuperLuigi6 congratulated him for all those edits. Yeah, him. No offense to them, but him and Andrey are the biggest hunters. Yeah, they have like 800 points already. Yeah, they are higher than everyone, even Killer and Pearl. Well, Pearl isn't even on the leaderboard. Anyways, the whole badge-hunting phase will probably die down by 2015. Probably, he brought it back to increase user-productivity, but people are taking it way to far. Correct me if Im wrong but, I think this is one of the reasons why the badges were removed. Agreed. Well, I just hope the problem gets resolved.

Right now, per say, it isn't really much of a problem but signs are showing that it may become one. For Fin and Andrey, whenever they edit, they edit in bulk, and sometimes I check out these edits :P, most of them are legit edits, others are maybe slightly questionable such as simple unneeded revisions of phrases, doing multiple edits when they could just edit it in one go and probably many more.
