There were 42 camps in the wilderness, 42 non-refuge Levitical cities, 42 boys mocked and threatened Elisha, there are 42 months of antichrist.
What does this mean?
According to Bullinger 42 signifies "man's opposition to God." Does that fit with those examples? I can see how that might fit, but I'm not entirely convinced. It might represent God counteracting man's opposition.

This isn’t about gamification—it’s about recognizing the members who make this community thrive. The ones who:
🔹 Post consistently (Content Champions)
🔹 Lift others with replies (Community Engagers)
🔹 Do both (Valued Contributors)
A concern about spam has been raised and I thank everyone for caring about the community’s quality.
We must always aim for Quality Over Quantity! Spam has no place here—it’s our job to remove it, badge or not.
But let’s not assume the worst. Most of us want to contribute meaningfully, and badges simply make that effort visible.
Why Metrics Matter 🤔
Imagine writing a book no one reads, or hosting a party no one attends. Without feedback, even the most passionate among us would lose motivation. Badges are like:
✅ View counts for posts (but for engagement)
✅ Poll results (but for your daily interactions)
✅ A mirror showing your own activity (or lack thereof)
Let's Try It, Then Judge
Scroll to your new dashboard - https://social.ttn.place/setting/my_badges - to see your activity summarized.
Notice on the News Feed who’s already earning badges—they’re likely the members you already respect.
The best communities grow when we measure what matters.
P.S. Hate spam? So do I. Report it, and we’ll act fast—badges or not.
Thought for Today: Friday July 25
The master craftsman knows that years of work, and suffering as an apprentice precede his being promoted to the master of his trade. The Bible teaches that sacrifice and discipline are necessary if we are to be faithful servants of the Moshiach. Paul wrote: “I discipline my body and bring it into subjection, lest, when I have preached to others, I myself should become disqualified.” (1 Corinthians 9:27). Discipline your time; discipline your eyes; discipline your mind; discipline your body – all for the sake of the Moshiach
