So as long as I pay 10/25/50 Canadian dollars then I can get a badge?

I don't agree with that logic, as it essentially would be the same as this: imagine you buying a GTX 770 and the vendor having a GTX Titan that they are unable to sell, then you receiving a Titan instead would be completely awesome! but totally not justified.. The badge represents your donation to the forums, even if it's the highest, it's still not the first 500$ single donation. That being said, if someone was to donate a much larger donation than 500$, after the pink badge is taken, they might do something special for that person. This is pure speculation on my part though.

Can you add a badge for people that donated something? I mean you're getting money from us and for those that don't have 10$ lying around and want a badge you could have a copper badge?

Just chipped in $500, as a thanks for years of wonderful content!

 

Dang, beat me (potentially) to it.

Very true. Simple way to figure it out.

Then again, some people might give more (like $15 instead of $10) so that will only be the minimum at least, not necessarily the actual amount.

Other people might donate and not want the badge (why? No idea, but they might not).
