I just got upgraded to members status on a forum and I wasn’t sure what “granted invitations” meant and I had to dig through the badges list to figure it out. I can understand why there’s a link instead of the actual text (it’ll always be up to date) but it might be nice if the sentence explained more clearly what is meant by an invitation.
All I see is this: “Granted invitations” (screenshot)
It would be more clear if it read: “Granted invitations (you can now invite new users to topics)”
Or some other wording.
The url of the page I was on was: /badges/2/member
Yes, this is on my plate, adding more copy to explain badges when you are on the badge page and have not seen that page before – but I have not gotten to it yet.
There should be a “short description” for the /badges screen, and an “extended description” for the individual badge page. Show it all the time, no “first visit” stuff.
