Profile Titles and Community Badges
Profile Titles
There are several different titles that you may see in a Head-Fi'er's profile. These are used to highlight specific milestones, industry relationships, community involvement, and occasionally specific details the community should know.
Community Titles
Community titles are given to Head-Fi'ers once they've reached a specific number of posts on our forums. The following titles are automatically assigned by the system based on a person's post count:
Some users are occasionally given custom titles following exceptional community involvement, comical exchanges on the forums, or other Head-Fi-related activities. Custom titles may also be used as communal warnings in certain scenarios.
Community Badges
Badges are accolades for joining other members of the Head-Fi community at in-person events around the globe. They will be given for things such as attending or exhibiting at CanJams, taking part in regional meets or activities, and other things that we come up with. A Head-Fi'er's cumulative awards are always available in their profile under the "Awarded Medals" tab and below their profile title on forum posts.
