Personally I believe EVERYONE should sign-up. I mean, c'mon, this is one of the best deals you will EVER find ... anywhere!!
Recognition for supporting the site. The advertisers get ads on the site for supporting CD some way or another. I was just trying to think of an incentive for people to donate. I know we're trying to be all touchy-feely and not hurt feelings, but let's be honest: If you saw that people were getting a badge for donating, wouldn't you want to donate (if you could)?

Unsung FIRST Heroes get a badge, WFA winners get a badge. I can't win either, so I don't have either badge on my profile or posts. By your logic, those should be taken away too, right?
