Thanks, Ray! I find myself liking the new badges more than I realized I would. Easy to see levels! In fact, I quickly realized I need to bump my Acknowledger level up. According to these badges, I have started 51+ new discussions but only marked 5-9 of them “answered”!
Where can I filter for a list of discussions that I, myself, have posted?

the easiest way is to go to the homepage and search for your name then filter by discussions on the side!
