as for respecting their ability to research?
when was the last time you saw a Zeepk with multiple bids on the bay?


I'm sure there were/are some people who wanted the badge and didn't get it.
Maybe they will yet.
I hope they are worthy of it.
I hope you all are.
For the "This is how you do it" - I see that as the purpose of the Wiki, to whatever extent there is a "this is how you do it." (Sorry, BeBerlin, I posted that before reading your post, and, I believe I repeated your statement.)

For Zeepk - Do we know that these are forum members? Yes, I have seen forum members who have bought Zeepk's, but that clearly means that they did not bother to ask or look at the "This is how you do it" wiki. IMHO, if you buy something without doing any research, you deserve what you get.

I totally agree with the last three lines of your post.
