no badges showing in games
Is anybody else having trouble seeing peoples badges in the games? I go into a game and no ones badges come up next to their user names.

EA Staff (Retired)Hey there, @smbdirect.
I know there's been some trouble with the favorite badges showing up on the Flash chat in Pogo Classic. However, any badge or mini you have showing up as your avatar on the new Pogo experience should show up in the chat.
I took a look at your new Pogo experience profile, and it looks like you still have Spike selected as your avatar (which may be your default), so you'll need to set your favorite badge as your avatar to see it in chat.

Hi
How do I do that? What about everyone else's badge? Why aren't they showing up in the chat rooms? They ALWAYS used to, right next to their user names. I love seeing other people's badges.
Thank you

Hey there, @smbdirect. Sure! I'll be happy to walk you through it.
There's two parts, since you don't have any favorite badges set on the new Pogo yet.
To set your favorite badges:
- Click on your avatar in the upper right corner to open the avatar menu
- Select My Profile
- In the About Me section, click on EDIT next to the Favorite Badges
- Using the filters on the left-hand side, narrow down your badge types and then click to select
- Click Save Changes to save your favorite badges
You can have up to 4 favorite badges.
Now that you have favorite badges, you can select them as your avatar.
To select an avatar that shows in chat:
- From your Profile page, click on the pencil icon next to your avatar
- Your mini should be the top left option, and the rest of the row is your favorite badges
- Click on the avatar you'd like to use
Please let me know if you have any questions.

Hey there, @smbdirect.
I'm just checking in. How did it go with setting your badge as your icon for the new chat?

Hi
You are NOT understanding what I am talking about. Go into Bingo luau and click on a chat room. Make sure the room has at least 5 or more people in it. You will see that no one has a badge showing next to their user name. Why has POGO stopped this? There ALWAYS was a badge next to the user name!
Thank you

Hey there, @smbdirect.
That type of chat that Bingo Luau uses is specifically the Flash chat. As mentioned in Post #6, there is a known issue with the player's selected favorite badges not displaying in Flash chat. Thanks for your added report.
