Never mind “just a mistake”
Crazy
Hi
Not partially true, definitely true. Trust me, it’s infinitely more difficult to get people to understand the weight of my verbal warnings without wearing the badge. The moderator badge is a moderation tool, like anything else.
i want this bad
?
this to happen
I wear the lab rat badge because it goes with my outfit otherwise I probably wouldn’t wear it
Mixed opinions personally
Your choice to wear the badge though
Read the whole message then answer please as this is not what it is about
Fine
Read it and still some people like me don't care what lab rats say or do and the badge is a way for people to believe that person is what they say they are there are some people act like they are a lab rat but with the badge they can prove that they are what they say they are
Why do they have to prove it?
There can be impersonators that can spread false information that can let down the person that listened to the impersonator that can lead the person to have trust issues than with the badge
That is why they have the badge to keep the role in cheek
Hello
That makes no sense as the point is labrats spread false info
Why do impersonators even matter, what are they going to do pretending to be a beta tester.
yes
That is the meaning of inpersontors
What?
Its sarcasm
What harm is pretending to beta test the update
What are they going to so threaten to bug report them lol
A pretender makes you get your hopes up and can you get let down that things that you are waiting for never happen
What? That makes no sense.
What could get your hopes up
Forget I that is was even here
He is basically saying that a fake labrat can say there is a new “space” update and people would believe it
And the people who would believe it
Would tell it to other people
The other people won’t think it’s real until the person said the “labrat” told them
No one will believe them without a badge
fr
But the point is it is labrats who are saying that
And people believe them just because of a stupid badge
There will be no badge if it’s removed
oh really?
Yes thats a good thing, as it is labrats who are spreading these false rumors
Removing the badge means there’s no badge 💀
wait really?
I had no idea!
woops
No one will get believed which is better then false things
yeah
Both sides has its pros and cons
Its better to have no badge and no false info, than having a ton of lab rats who dont know what they are saying spread the false info
the badge wont get removed
but it should
Especially with a bunch of cc labrats bragging about labrat 😭
fr
I was a cc labrat
but I stayed humble
yup
because most of them are underage
I actually know one that is underage too I think
Some labrats are squeakers
im not exactly a squeaker, but I have a high pitch voice
Same
some kid though I was underage because he used a lie detector app on his phone 💀
bro was literally seven
💀
then he said, "Im gonna go get the Magic-8-Ball 🤓 "
like it is gonna do anything
The whole lobby literally said, "its just random"
and he said, "why would they make it if its random🤓"
bro said he was gonna report me to the discord
🤓 ☝️
This thread is crazy
Fr
Yessir
Its hard to understand where the creator is coming from though
Both sides have really good points
Other then people that like to brag about their role
waffles went crazy with "if the badge gets removed the badge gets removed" bars
Real
If the badge gets removed cause of people ima scream at them
why do u want the badge
pluh that is horrible reason
What do you use it for though
Have you ever use it in your game
It’s just a cosmetic
for discord and yeeps you should be able to toggle the name color (and icon) kinda like the zipper but not just flat out remove it
idc if it gets removed or not
I do

Idc if it gets removed too.
If they do remove it they could make a cosmetic that you can buy that's the badge but it's blue and it's scribbled out that way it doesn't mess with people's fit
There
Huh
I did it to my message
Just do it with mine
How about this I wanna know peoples opinions so react with “✅” if you like this idea and react with “❌” if you don’t like this idea (you can only pick one)
K there
I like them both so I will pick them both
K
Have you ever have one

What
The labrat badge?
No
Nvm Nathan said no
Its still probably happening
#🚨・game-reports if u haven’t already
Nah kaluka is MY friend
Who would have foreseen this, a cc lab rat saying something that will get them banned
No, hell is not a slur.
then why did he get reported
i might be dumb
For saying the r slur?
that was a diffrent person right?
That was the lab rat, right in front of them.
oh, mb
No wait, you’re right
Oh my gosh
i should fr be a mod
You’re observant, I’ll give you that
ty
Can he get unbanned if banned?
No, he did say it
Nevermind. After reviewing the footage frame by frame, they did say the r slur
Oh mb, sorry you had to get another person involved
It’s all good, getting a second opinion helps us see things we didn’t notice 👍
We’re all here to help each other out
it did just seem a lil weird he answered his own question
Glad things got figured out tho
but idk
A mod literally gave me a warm for reporting him for griefing in wilds
And then warned me for reporting him like what
bc abuse of power obviously
i should def be mod then
who?
ill be so cool
@ the_bulk
you should make a ticket
Didn’t realize being mod let you disregard the rules 😭
fr Xd
General support or report? My guess is support
probably report
Bro 😭
u sure its the_bulk?
I’m certain
like do u know the ingame name?
yea thats them for sure
It’s somewhat off topic from the post but any type of power abuse is so stupid
it is, but to whoevers abusing, it isnt
what did he grief
A skybase
in what map
What map
Wilds!!!!
Pluh😭💀
Do you have video footage
That’s the only way of evidence from what I know
Didn’t catch it on video, I’ll probably just get told off by a different mod
if I’m really lucky he’ll be added to the ticket and just ban me
If only I had some
Yeah I don’t think you can’t do anything without proof
Can’t wait to get told off by a mod about mod abuse
@merry python
On bro
can someone get Loading into a ticket with Galexyy?
Mods, send out the tickets.
yes
Honestly I feel the reason this has been happening recently is because of all the new ccs getting lab rat, a lot of the content creators are underage, and are toxic and can’t keep a good behavior. The CC can get in easily, because when they apply they don’t know how to. If we removed CC getting lab rat it would make it way less toxic and boasting in the Yeeps community overall.
Whats your user?
Alright yall dw about it it was a small misunderstanding i apologized and cleared up the situation for the two of us no abuse took place
Wilds gets wild sometimes :\
Lol
Hmmmm idk
without the badge there could be more misinformation spread. labrats are also a face for the community so not knowing who they are could cause issues. could be used for moderation purposes as well since labrats are held at a higher standard and may need to be warned in cases other players wouldnt.
A player doesnt really need to know who a lab rat is
nathan does encourage spreading the news of coming updates, but prefers only confirmed information. misinformation could be spread if people dont know who to trust
i also mentioned moderators
woww 🤩
There will always be misinformation about updates
Im sure some lab rats lied about a update

which is not really allowed lol
so why make it worse?
and this doesnt disprove my point about moderation
Idk
We still will know who is a lab rat
it shows the symbol for you regardless of wether or not theyre wearing the badge?
also whats the point of removing the badge in the first place
renan has every lab rat tracked
Some Labs rats feel better than people without it
Just because they have a badhe
well they can feel that way but if theyre harming others or being discriminatory its already bannable
i think this does more bad than good
and why take the good entirely just because some people cant handle it
punish the people
🤓Erm actually it's to test if thier is bugs for updates that's the main point and if you say no I will call your manager
Deff not karen
Deff not joking bc depression
Even good lah rats dont need it
Yeah we don’t need it, but it’s still fun and cool to have.
i think the only reason it should be taken is if ppl dont actually do what there spose to do. And also CC
Wdym cc
content creator
I got it from cc
Ik
I worked hard for it
ik
And I actually do my job
Thanks
but other ppl make cheap vids and challenges
True
that is the first time i've heard anyone make that reference in 2024
unless ur just saying thats no good and not making a sonic ref
You seem similar
you also do
🤔
Just take off the badge
Ok but take a looky over at this —> #1258915349274034186 message
The adventures of sonic the hedgehog
i forget where the lines from but i think its that

Real
Can y’all not post photos and videos in this channel. This is a formal discussion, not #🎨│archived-memes
I agree we should remove it so these kids aren’t so sad/mad when they don’t get it
What image are you talking about
Cuz I have
Multiple images
You think the kids that have it whould willingly do that?
Bro that's part of life, you not getting what you want

Bruh
Well the remove labrat thing is done because Nathan said no so
Whacha saying
That doesn't mean to litter the place w memes
Yes I do agree with this, ( I hate getting attention just bc of a badge, and no one should be thinking they are better then anyone just bc they are a lab rat) but I do think we need the badge for a couple reasons, here’s the main one, impersonating, if any kid hears about the labrat badge getting removed, they can go in any lobby, and say they are a labrat, with no way to prove it or figure out if they are faking
Don’t think many people will do it, just is a possibility

I agree, but to be fair just take off the badge. If it's annoying. It's definitely sometimes annoying for me, but I keep it on so players know there more likely to be in a safe place, and Im a reliable person.
Ye but I just wanna put on the badge and play, I think they should just get rid of the icon on the board tbh
A lot of people bring up “impersonation” and honestly who is gonna impersonate labrats/beta testers, it seems pointless (and new update info is always public so it wouldnt matter) and having a badge to prevent impersonation of a lab rat is less important
Hi brody
I feel like that's one of the small issues
True, there is just so many reasons now it’s confusing
Yes I haven’t seen that many people impersonating, but I have found some even with the still here
Well the badge wasnt created to stop impersonating anyway
Basically I think it should stay unless people abuse it, you should add a rule that if you see a abusive labrat you can report them
Exactly
I think it's a bit far to remove the entire badge
Yeah like a specific report section for that
Ye
Fr I just really don’t like that they wanna remove it just take of the badge if they don’t want it
I think that's a great compromise, to add a report section for abusive ppl
Yes that wasn’t the point at all I agree 100%, just I think some kids will impersonate as lab rats so people will treat them as kings and stuff, as we’ve seen, not 100% that that will happen, just a possibility
Except it’s not. They are still discussing how to fix the issue.
Yeah
Alright 
I think my idea was a good idea
It is
Some labrat like it
And it would be a type of special report, were I depends if you get banned or kicked from lb
If you don’t like it then don’t use it
real LRs can just say wrong updates and wrong leaks anyway

Tbh I feel like if they find any footage or proof of any labrat being a jerk and abusing the badge, they should just get rid of their labrat, and they should just remove the icon on the board tbh
Well the whole reason this arguement started was being so many lab rats were using their badge in a negative way, and if it was only a few lab rats then we wouldnt try removing it, but its because so so many lab rats were using badges to seem more powerful or an excuse to break the rules it seems fair to remove an addition (the lab rat badge) to their main privilege (testing updates). Yall never needed a badge but you guys were viewed as trusted
What was your idea?

A special report system for labrats
Even if they get rid of the badge to stop abusers, everyone still has labrat, just no badge
They could either get banned or kicked based on how drastic the issue was
And most are trustworthy, but the bad apples have grown so much they are kind of using it as a game at this point. “Who can trick the most people.” It’s so stupid
And it would be a type of special report, were I depends if you get banned or kicked from lb
regular people can abuse that
How
True, they would
False reporters would go crazy
imagine a person didn't get LR they would start reporting LRs
True
Ik it would still be difficult, but I think it'll work out
There doesn’t need to be a special report system, the current one works just fine for both lab rats and normal folk. That would just add more of a class divide between the two
That's what I mean
It's definitely not a permanent fix tho
But its smth
What?
I disagreed with your statement and then you agreed with me lol
It’s not any fix, it would make the problem worse
How
No
Also I thought u said smth else mb lol
THATS TRUE ASWELL, dang this is annoying
I swear
Just close the post this isn’t gonna get anywhere
I said that earlier my phone WiFi went out for a min
Like I don't want me and the other good lb to get punished for smth they didn't do
people never needed a badge
Ik but it is nice to have in a lot of ways
This isn’t gonna get anywhere
Tru
It prob be best just to close this
And re-open a diff one if smth gets brought up with the devs
It's rly just a loop
Nathan would only remove the badge if it was a last resort
It’s not a punishment. The lab rat badge doesn’t serve a purpose, so there’s no point in having it 🤷♂️
Pretty sure most lab rats are useful
People ask them questions in game
They answer them
Most normal people don’t know the question
What kinds of questions do lab rats answer that regular players cannot?
You already know he wants to get rid of finger painter too
Yea he does
What?
What’s in the new update
How long until the next update? What’s the next update? Some lab rat questions.
How about we also take away moderator badge? I’m pretty sure it’s also useless.
Fr
Oh yeah let’s also take away developer badge
Everyone knows how long until the next update, it’s on the notice board.
Its not it actually servers a purpose
Hey swag I Dm you to explain better I hope it doesn’t come off to harsh
Lots of lab rat content creators can tell you that, so most regular players would already know whats in the next upfate
Fair
Hi
Idk I have mixed opinions on removing the badge. This should just be closed
We rly aren't getting anywhere
Most lab rats have better knowledge than normal people and hear me out most
Moderator badge helps with crowd control and makes sure people listen to verbal warnings. It’s a moderation tool, like everything else is.
Most people when there’s a moderator there don’t say any bad stuff
Without the badge, people would probably say weird stuff
Like I hear people say the r slur
I’d prefer to keep it open, seeing other people’s opinions and suggestions may help us find a solution to the problem that doesn’t involve the removal of the badge
But when there’s a moderator there, they don’t say anything
Yeah so they take off the badge and then put it back on when they hear or see something that is a breach of the guidelines.
It’s like giving junior mods a badge
Pretty much useless
Jr. Mods don’t have a badge.
It is useless for us, because I don’t moderate in-game. It’s the same with the lab rat badge.
It's a cool thing I think maybe it should not be on the leaderboard board but outright removing it is too extreme. You are only saying that because your a moderator and get the attention you want anyway.
Or will
If promoted which is moderately likely
Nope. I don’t get attention. I have no badge, nor do I need one. I am a lab rat, just as you are. Do not attempt to make an attack against my character, you do not know me. Instead focus on the points that I make.
This is a problem that needs to be addressed. Removal of the badge is the only thing I can see that completely fixes this issue.
If all you can see is the attention that the badge gives you, I doubt you are mature enough to wear it.
woah bro calm down
see there's a difference between greedy and humble

Guys let let it go this has been going on for too long
The people who want it removed will always want it removed
The people who want to keep it will never think it should be removed
Can't we all just say it has pros and cons then just walk away?
It's terrible to see the community divided like this, over something as small as a little card.
True
It should just be reclosed and left alone.
Yea
he doesnt want to
Well, it's not doing any good, so why keep it open?
If it is removed people will advocate for readdition
he said "I’d prefer to keep it open, seeing other people’s opinions and suggestions may help us find a solution to the problem that doesn’t involve the removal of the badge"
but all our opinions dont rly matter ig
I didn't mean it like that, I didn't realize that this was the reason it was kept open.
If so, the name should probably be changed so new people do not restart the cycle of arguments.
yea
beacuse for now, its not getting removed
and the only reason is for "discussion"
Maybe something along the lines of "how to help fix lr power abuse"
yea
fr
Lets start then maybe I'll make a list
(Type cons of the lr badge below) what to fix:
Can lead to power abuse
Power abuse can cause misinformation
(Continue the list)
feel entitled?
wait how power abuse
they dont have that much power
expect a few ppl asking questions
if anything over time ppl have turned on me lol
Fitz is cooking something 🗣️
honestly i think theese 3 are the biggest ones
i feel like lb has done more good then bad
They have perceived power, that’s the problem.
yknow im kinda split 50/50 on this
i used to be a lr, and even then i talked about somewhat of a removal of the badge
the badge is causing issues, and the only issue I could think of being solved by it is impersonation, and it isn't as bad of an issue as some people have been painting it
i think it was kinda the issue with bug bounties, the badge isn't encouraging testing, mostly just getting labrat for the heck of it
and alot of the issue with CCs becoming LRs could've been avoided had there been no badge, because I know people were trying to keep it rare (albeit i see more negative)
tbf, removal or any decrease of stuff with the badge would cause some issues, but in the end it would cause a more positive result
but having the badge is cool I can't lie lol
btw, don't say the same for mod badge, as it still provides some functionality that is more beneficial than "harmful" (if there's any harm at all)
there's probably some more I could go on abt but I gtg
(this is directed towards everyone, and not just t1m3r btw)
Well that fell apart fast...
Just as a general thing, can I say most of us know about the pros/cons already and for people to contribute we need different ideas, not people repeating a chant that we've memorized.
So instead of saying what's wroung and yelling at walls for hours, why don't we just fix the problems?
Also T1m3r please change the name if what storm said was true...
It causes more issues than solutions. But I do believe labrats should get something in some sense. Content creators gets so much more compared to labrats, If we took the badge away they would get next to nothing ( Outside of bata testing which is 🔥)
Maybe something like an ID gadget. They could whip out to prove their identity.
That way people would be none the wiser of the lab rats... well being lab rats unless they whip it out
Or maybe just something goofy like that.
And if it gets too out of hand. You can just do the good ol crash the market trick. Make Lab rats so common that it's not that special anymore. This reason is a joke
That would be the exact same thing
Well how could we make both worlds happy
the person up the thread a litlle bit explains the main issue
the lab rats should get something for well....being a lab rat
But it can't be anything that lets people think they have power
The best way to solve this might just be something like lab rats get a few hundres butt-coins every update
Or get people that report new bugs some sort of reward
We need incentives people!
Gods of Gravity vs Yeeps of Gravity who wins fr
I think a good idea is if you only get the id thingy or gadget if you report alot of bugs
Or smth like that
Nathan is kind of not doing that
and probably the other devs aswell
Gog has more skill
Yeeps has a LOT more players tho
Its not about not wanting to wear it
Real
I play both, and both are good but I like yeeps because there are so many mechanics compared to gog, and yeeps is more social.
True
I just want lab rat because I wanna help with further updates
Finally someone who dosent wanna brag
this might be one of the most controversial yeeps suggestions ever 😭
Bruh no one brags 💀
I have seen many labrats who brag and exaggerate their powers.
Blud your stupid no one brags 💀
Wdym noone brags, I have seen many labrats who brag
Yeah sure🗿
If you used this little thing called COMMON SENSE, and EYES you would see that many labrats brag
Essay boy
I put common sense into my arguments while you say random carp and put an emoji in the front
Carp💀
Bro thinks his roasts are good
Bro is 7💀
Oh, you Cant think of a good roast, womp womp
Ain't no one stupid except you
Lol hell no
Can't you mean?
Grammar’nt
Grammer'nt isn't a word
Spelling’nt
Go study instead of roasting me, you clearly need it
Now your saying bull$h|t
You are
Can you solve algebra problems with fractions, no? Im smarter
I put time into my roasts, unlike you
Still cant think of anything to say? Wompity womp womp
At least i have some sort of love in my life
Womp womp
Thats the best roast you can come up with💀
I won, accept it
Labrats brag
No I'm just tellin the truth
Wdym noone loves me💀
your the one who made this a roast battle
And ill be the one to win it
I'll lock this again istg
Mmhmm
Even with roast god?
Ya’ll stop bickering like actual children
Just please close it
Me when no one checks the history
dang this really is the most controversial post here 😭
Cool.
If you’re not willing to listen, don’t talk.
I dont wanna hear anything about not removing the badge from you
You don’t tell me if I can talk or not
Feel free to talk, but like can’t you do it elsewhere?
Dude I said it as a joke
Sorry man, I didn’t mean to come off that way
I’m just sick of all the nonsense that people have said channel lol
What does jr mod have to do with this?
How?
This is true all I've seen with the new lab rats are gloating and stuff I wanted to become a lab rat once (and still do) but never made tryouts or missed them so I agree get rid of the badges
Ok ill keep repeating myself:
If you actually want to fix the problem, stop arguing and come up with solutions. Also T1m3r, if you want to stop people from arguing you should probably change the name.
Yeah im with Magician. I've been seeing more childish arguments then actual souloutions
One fix that kinda dosent fix the problem is removing the labrat icon from the board so labrats are harder to recognise
True
Instead of removing the badge, we should add an extra application or step for CC’s so we can filter out the bad apples. I know someone is gonna come and say “There will be more of a social divide!” But really, if we uphold a premium quality of Lab Rats that don’t brag and are mature enough to play with or without the badge we wouldn’t even have to remove it in the first place.
W
I said that one Nathan didn't like it tho
What was his input?
Yes
May fix future labrats but what about the old ones? Or am i missing something
We can’t fix the past, only reminisce, but we can fix the future - me
Ok finally some progress, good job guys. Maybe we can keep.an ideas list?
Maybe just a stricter policy, like a special toxmod for lr to better filter.
applications for CCs before they become labrats
No not a better toxmod
if alfas get items then you should to
Lawyer, we're just throwing ideas out there for now. Sometimes stupid ones can be good!
bro LRs are regular people we don't need a better toxmod
or better rules
the rules are already good enough and the bar is set and it really standard
2500 messages!
We know that
this is such a big milestone!!
And we already talked about hiw we should stop arguing
(Wawa I wasn't talking to you btw)
2570th (grr)
2571st
oh thanks
@worldly gazelle this one
Where is it
Guess I'm on that grind 🫡
Still, Im onboard with this
i'm on board with comrade
I saw one good lab rat once who said their only purpose was to report bugs and test updates early when someone was trying to get them to act as moderater
W guy
Dang I had no idea that there were that many power hungry lab rats
I saw you yesterday
People ain’t going to think you a Labrat to the point of reporting you so keep it so people dont impersonate
"so when dont have people who impersonate"?
Sometimes people say they have the badge when they don’t
are you talking about currently or if they remove the badge
If they remove or both
how do you impersonate having the badge if the badge doesnt exist anymore
you cant impersonate a lab rat without proof of being one
fr
Bruh same argument again
Billy and Amari's I mean
They should still reclose this ngl
People their say a Labrat sometimes even if they don’t have the badge and they still do to this day
So?
They cant do anything
Yeah they can’t but they fool a entire lobby and if someone says they ain’t one most of the lobby could be tricked into thinking their actually one and entire lobby might kick that person or report that person (also one time my friend got kick for throwing a impulse at a Labrat)
Dies in pain
ok?
the badge should get taken away
body simultaneously combusts
Just keep it
Give it up this isn't going anywhere
why
That was every labrat I've encountered who acted with or without the lab badge. Is that just me? Because the only labrats I've seen that's bad have been on yt vids
i have seen some bad ones and some ones who were neither, but I vote to not remove the badge just make it a bit harder to get in and just basically what@merry python said
Maybe all the rotten lab rats should lose their status if they don't straighten up
Fr

🤫
Jkjk whats your oculus name/ what was i doing? (Im bad at names lol)
Ngl I kinda miss my labrat badge 😭
I don’t think it’s necessary to be ingame but I think it looks cool 😎
I understand your opinion and that’s a valid point, but it’s banable to put yourself in a better point/better spot. If somebody is abusing his labrat badge (tell people „I will ban you“ or „if you do …. I will tell you what’s in the next update“ or something like that) your labrat will get removed so just report them or something (the title for that report would be labrat abusing) sorry if my English - this text isn’t that understandable.
Having the badge makes you able to do that in the first place
yeah, but putting yourself in a better position is banable.
that’s what I mean.
but that would be harder to do if you dont have a badge in the first place
True,well I like the badge and I understand your opinion but I think they won’t remove the badge. (But thanks for not hearing me out)
if you dont like the badge, just take it off?
Thats not about no wanting to wear the badge
I dont know why people say that
I thought all mods got it
let people debate bro
its not hurting anyone at all
and if it does its on them
My name was sipper.2022
You said “I’m gonna do a magic trick” and threw a sticky smoke bomb on the ground and disappeared
No
keep it!
Nope
Oh well a mod a met said they did
well if they delete the labrat badge they should delete the mod badge and item too. I mean they don’t need it. Why should mods have a item and a badge that’s useless?(maybe it has a use idk) they don’t have to proof nothing. they have the power to ban people so there’s no use for a badge right, it’s just to show? same for the labrat badge. „But they have to show that they are a real mod!“🤓 no they don’t. They shouldn’t say „I’m a moderator!“ or something. „no but they need it to show us“ no? That’s the same for the labrat badge „but mods are a higher rank in yeeps!“ there are no ranks in yeeps. (That just my opinion and I respect the opinions from yall , I’m not trying to start a huge fight with mods)
no they shouldnt delete the mod badge
you realize that lab rats arent trusted
but mods are
lab rats spread tons of false info
Not really
Like how?
idk how, but when I was lab rat people asked me tons of questions and told me tons of things about lab rat that arent true
dies af
people started saying that lab rats have everything in the game
not really. (I didn’t witness something like that but I don’t think so)
How did you lose lab rat and CC
i dont think the badge will get remobed
. ^^^^^^^^
Guys we've been over this please stop
Also can I get your YouTube?
me?
It dosn’t have a use except for showing neither does the labrat.
I havent witnessed it, but I have heard tons of false things
well mod is very different from lab rat
Really guys please stop
well then you shouldn’t be talking. (Not trying to be mean)
We've had this argument
I didnt spread false info
Its just my name
Not cool
K thx
no I meant if you didn’t witness then you shouldn’t tell people about it ~ use it as a argument.
oh
Who?
😦
the point is that people believe lab rats because of the badge
therefore false info could be spread
easily
What make you think they’re useless?
fr
well as I said I don’t know if it’s useless.
its not an argument, technically its a debate but alright
The badge and item are both useful
Same thing
what use does the badge have except showing off?
I mean we arent being mean to eachother so is it really an argument?
Labrats don’t need actual “proof” but you could argue that mods do
thats exactly what I said
It's the 3rd time I've only seen it, probably more
Also a debate is an argument
If you want to get technical,
If you dont want "arguments," go to general
I always viewed an argument as toxic and a debate as a friendly argument
I'm not starting another one
but I guess we view it differently
Bye
Argument aren’t really toxic it’s more back and forth but yeah.
true true
well ngl I don’t really care about the badge getting removed. It’s just cosmetic. But I don’t like the idea of it getting removed
I bet most of the people that reacted with a no didnt think about it
Anything that mods have are thought through and mainly purposed to help us be more efficient with maintaining a good community. Unlike the mod badge, labrat badge wasn’t intended to help labrats do anything because they only do things in the lab version… there for they don’t have a true use of the badge and it doesn’t need to be there.
facts well we should talk about people behind their backs.
I mean like. The badge shows people to not do anything stupid. And the magnifying glass let's them view users names from any distance.
shouldn’t they stay hidden to find people being toxic ~ breaking the rules?
they keep the badge off
then when they report someone they put it on
i think
facts
read the text that I answerd to.
Most of us don’t go around with the badge if we are searching for bad people. But it could definitely help if we are telling people to stop being toxic and stuff cause if we say we are a mod and they say “that’s not true you’re just bossing me around” or stuff we could show it as proof
True, I didn’t think about that my bad.
Labrats on the other hand don’t need to prove anything because they aren’t doing anything that requires proof like moderators do.
this is why the lr badge should be removed
it probably wont tho
True. Well I mean labrats should get a little reward for beta testing.
The badge or the entire thing?
omg im blind
badge
can't you reapply?
sorry, I cant spell or read rn for some reason
Some labrats don’t actually do the testing though and it would be very difficult to verify if they did or not
Cc get rewards cause we can clearly see their video
True
maybe they can do a attendance thing once you join the early update
I do believe the badge is a good use for cosmetic and could show that you have worked to be a more important part of the game, in fact personally I truly like the badge although sometimes it can spark issues that could be solved by removing it
And removing it wouldn’t rly affect the flow of the game
would be hard for people in different timelines
no like a automatic attendance
lr is very cool, you get to test out new features before it gets released to the public, but the badge needs to be removed because 1. some lab rats are just there for the attention 2. people believe lab rats, which could lead to false info getting spread, like how people think unreleased items, like cheese or gyatt block, are bannable
Yes but like it’s a labrat badge to show you are a labrat. It would not rly fit in the award category
Same as mod badge in that context ig
I totally agree
well wouldn’t that be unfair? All of the labrat would get punished because some labrats can’t behave?
Continuing reason #2… some people believe labrats about rules that aren’t true, labrats aren’t supposed to know every bannable thing and sometimes we see people getting banned from them believing labrats about bannable things being allowed and they decide to do it just cause they had a badge that was special
it would be unfair, but honestly its for the best if im being honest
i said honest 2 times
That’s our job mainly but it does help if you guys know the rules exact. It just could spark issues for the people that don’t (aka most labrats I believe)
im going insane
lol
Same.
I should probably update my pfp because otherwise that would be spreading false info lol
almost 3000 messages dang
that would lead to a massive labrat loss. Most of the labrats want their badge. A solve would be that you have to be a labrat for over 2 months to get your labrat badge.
that could work, but I think people would honsetly just wait
oh my I cannot speel
😭
Speel? it’s spell.
yes ik lol
ah okay.
Ooh😆 hru?
Good u?
What happened?
Good
😁
I think that we should make a tier system kinda like jr mod
So jr lab rat I guess?
Same
(I think) the reason they have it to verify is so let's say that someone isn't a lab rat but says they are, and then start spreading false info to everyone. That would be bad.
you seem chil
I Completely Understand Your Reasoning, But I Feel Now With Rab Lats In Almost Ever Lobby, People dont care as much anymore. sometimes even multiple labrats in one lobby. Its not rare to be a lab rat no more so people just treat them normally now.
Fr
Mostly but not completely and some play into it and some don't.
Idk its a complicated conversation 😂
What happened to your roles?
got banned a while back
Bruh its not hard to keep clean 😔
idek what I did exactly
Oculus name?
"Gender/Sexual Hate Speech"
So that
Rip brother
We don't do that sorry
🫡.
Holup
i needa find a msg from nathan
May be misinterpreting that but 🤷
(it was changed after my ticket btw)
i just finished pt1 mc story mode les go
but why did rueben have to die
😭
Rip
No????? There are certain situations where the badge is required. Things like verbal warnings people will disregard what we say if it isint shown we are a mod and its not like we can go around dishing out punishments for the sake of proving it. Also, how are people going to trust our word? If there is a discussion going on or someone is spreading false info on rules they need to be corrected and you wont be trusted with no mod badge. And lrs dont need the badge the best reason for keeping it ive seen is "proving you are one" which you dont need to do. People wont believe some random person but if its someone trusted like a mod it will be belived.
Complex?! AH-
This fixes every problem here
It is to my knowledge
True. Well same for labrat. If somebody is spreading false info about the new update you have to correct them and they won’t trust you if you don’t wear your badge.
When I was a LR I was spreading misinformation about the update on purpose 
nah-
If I was empty I would say that they'd get banned if they didn't give me 10,000 butcoins
(joke)
Oh wait why are you no longer lr?
Ban?
Crazy
Why
I think only trusted lab rats and active ones should have the badge tbh
taking off the lanyard also removes the badge from the board btw
It would be too difficult to monitor
I was gone a week is this still going on?
unfortunately yes because this community likes to be controversial 😭🙏
especially the moderator who posted this thread
Dude I hate when people flex about the Labrat badge😡I also do get unwanted attention but there’s an easy solution-Taking off the badge😀I never wear the badge anymore only when I see fans I put on the badge and then leave the server
Idk if they should delete it tho, we should just be able to record Labrats that flex the badge and report them to the Discord @jaunty edge
If you don’t want the attention just take it off
Read the whole message
😦
Why is there a war over here
Bc the mods don't reclose this thread
It's the same argument
But no one cares to look at the history
Over
its basically the same situation as creator badge in gtag
Apparently
thats why i barley check discord server (that arent only me and friends)
They should just make it so lab rats maybe get to show off the new items but other people can’t grab them and we can’t use them
Okay that’s a good idea
Just don’t wear it lol
Yea
Bro lab rats should keep the badge but people should know that lab rats are not above anyone lab rats are just normal players that get to test the updates a day early
Also lab rats don’t need any exclusive items or gadgets being able to test updates a day before they come out is a reward it’s self
5 layers deep
False information on new updates isint as dangerous as spreading false info on rules if you are spreading misinformation it can cause people to false report, break the rules thinking its ok, toxicity, etc. there is not reason to keep the badge in the least. And if the badge does get removed lr can spread disinformation or misinformation and be believed because people think lrs have a higher understanding of rules.
True. Well I think it would be kinda unfair,because all of the labrats would get punished because some lb‘s can’t behave / explain the rules correctly so it would be unfair. I will keep myself out of this situation. I personally don’t care about the badge getting removed but some people would care and quit (I think). Well thank you for staying chill about this situation. Have a nice day / night.
Its not unfair and its not a punishment and it never was all the issues that stem from removing the badge get fixed by removing the badge like impersonating a lr. Removing it fixes a variety of problems and causes none. But if people quit good riddance because that proves they think that the badge is a reward and shows that they are of a higher standing then a regular player which they arent.
would be the same if 10 mods would misbehave and the mod badge would get removed.its unfair for the other mods right?
Well they would probably fire or get in trouble depending on what they did I don’t think they would take the badge away for all mods cause the other mods did nothing
So yes it would be unfair to the other mods
No the badge benefits going to labrat version that’s a stupid idea
What do you mean?
If we don’t have the badge then how do we go to labrat
The badge is separate from access to the lab version
It’s a stupid idea dude
Can you give feedback on why you don’t like the idea.
Why would we not have our badges
Because many lab rats use them to brag
People can’t be banned for being under age
You can
They can
13+
If they can then I would have to report a majority of the people in my lobbies
On oculus it's 10+
Discord 13+
Abl is spitting fax
A lot of people here don’t listen to that rule and it honestly doesn’t matter too much
It does
Too many scams, grabifies, toxicity, racism and uhm other things
Well they are and no one really cares about it.
If it’s bannable then why are people not reporting under age lab rats or the under age people in the server.
Because there lazy and how do we know if they’re under age
?rule6
? rule 6
We don’t know if they’re under age or not.
Exactly
Also why are you guys spamming ?rule6
I think I found an under age guy
It’s a problem but there isn’t really a solution.
Don't talk about personal info
Like AGE
Did I ask for either of your ages
Urbtalking about it
You can’t ask for anyone’s age if there under 18 I’m pretty sure
You’re talking about it too
I wasn’t asking for your age.
I didn’t say you were
Well Abl1s is
He said ur talking about age not telling ur age
Then it’s not breaking any rules
🦖
Yes because 1. Mods wont ever misinform or disinform people as the mod team as a whole is mature enough to know not too 2. Mods arent above the rules each mod represents the mod team entirely and if one spreads false information wether on purpose or not will make us look bad which they can and will be punished for 3. Mods have things we require the badge for lrs dont i dont understand why devs would just remove it unless it wouldnt pose any issues in the future.
Instead of removing it, why not just let the RIGHT people get it, the more mature ones, the ones that can handle the attention without becoming corrupted. I honestly think this spews from the CC to LR program and the lack of filter between the two. A little timmy can get into CC (which has a less strict acceptance) and join LR if they just make a few videos, there is no filter! He would become a representative of the group can can taint their reputation. We need an extra barrier between CC and LR!
Русский, я вижу
Кроме того, это согласен с тем, что понятно, почему они должны сделать это вместо того, чтобы полностью удалить это.
No sorry, I just like the word 😆
О, я понимаю
Why do you even need the badge? There is no legitimate reason to keep it.
Your right, but if people want to get information about early updates, the reason why Trass didn't make the stuff we saw confidential, they know who to look for and who to trust. I know you might say "Lab Rats spread misinformation too!" but really, if we had the RIGHT Lab Rats, not the ones just looking for the badge, im sure it would prove some importance in information control.
Anyway, im going to bed
Goodnight debate thread
Это довольно разумно и спокойной ночи, товарищ
good night to you to
Ну, спи спокойно
Are people still arguing about this
Да, они есть
Смитись с этим, это мой родной язык
Well you obviously understand English why can’t you speak it here
Я не говорю об этом, мой ноутбук автоматически переводит это
Translate for me too will ya?
He’s saying his laptop autocorrects to Russian
Да, я на самом деле не понимаю английский
Lmao
He doesn’t really understand English well
Это переводит ваш английский в русский
Ohhhh
Чтобы я мог понять вас, ребята
Yeah so his computer autocorrects his own messages to Russian as well as ours.
Нет, ключи от моего ноутбука на русском языке
Не удивлен
