I just don't see a point to handing out badges to everyone. Their supposed to mark something, not state the obvious. Like an 'otaku' badge. Some people here are only really into American series so that doesn't really apply to them. And since cosplaying is just a branch of otaku/nerdom then everyone in the site qualifies for that badge since no one joins a cosplay social networking site unless they like cosplaying which is an otaku/nerd activity. And some actually do take offense to the term 'otaku' or 'nerd' since in both originating cultures the terms are pretty insulting. We tend to wear them with pride, but not everyone feels the same way. You could be stepping on a lot of toes over a pointless and redundant badge that isn't going to tell us anything we don't already know about people.

But I mean lot of photographers I know also cosplay, and since the entire point of the site is us being cosplayers I think a 'Cosplayer' badge is ... pointless? Videographer is something extra on top of cosplay so by marking it actually means something.

Photographer or Videographer? For the videographers here rather than cosplayers?
