so i didnt buy any mechpacks, some of them cost more than my entire annual games budget. i did buy stuff though, mc packages here and there when i had a few bucks left over after bills. looking at my purchase history i have spent around $70 on mc which when put together is more than i would spend on an arena shooter (let alone a minimally viable one).

any chance on a badge that shows i did my part in funding the game. i hate being called a freeloader by some whale with all the badges. it doesn't have to be fancy it can be the most boring badge in the game. in fact mc purchasers seem to have gotten the shaft as far as loyalty rewards go as well. It would be nice if there was a little customer appreciation for the little people.

You don't need no stinkin' badges!
Especially to prove your innocence. I can understand wanting one and if you persue it, might as well make sure the design makes you happy. I only used one badge before this one, even though I was a top tier Resistance buyer I used a lower one because I liked the design better. Same now, top tier Urbie buyer is a different badge, I just like the Trash Can.
If we needed badges to prove our innocence, we would need a LOT of in game badges.
Badges for former military.
Badges for games played before.
Badges for Mech/weapon types used.
Really, look at some conversations that happen here and all the blatant accusations even when you have proof otherwise. I alone would need an army of badges to prove claims against myself wrong.
Screw 'em.
If you still want the badge, go for it but make sure the design is something you like, even with a badge, it will not stop the accusations.

What op is talking about is the equivalent of a feel good participation trophy
Anyway, it's a dumb idea, being so involved with what people on the internet think that you feel the need to prove you spent money.

I've spent way too much money in this game, but I don't feel the need to **** on people who haven't spent as much.

So Faction badges are a horrible idea too!

Only badges that I recognize or take note of are founders badges. I am not opposed to them giving you a badge. It doesn't mean anything to me but if it means something to you, I don't see the harm but do see the benefit. You should be treated as a valued customer having supported the game in your own way. I don't think you're using the proper channels to get one however. You're posting on the forum for an audience to read. Better would be to ask customer support under general or account inquiries. They might be nice and give you one.

Don't forget Twitter, home of the booty call, some of the most insane pictures/tweets ever and ISIS recruiting.
