I’m learning more about these forums and more about github and was wondering what the invite links are used for:
I’ve tried looking for answers tried looking for topics but I couldn’t find anyone talking about it.
It looks cool and would like to know how to use it.
Does anyone have information about this and how I can use it?
Thank you!

I believe its a link you can send to someone so that when they sign up for the forums through it, you get a badge! 🙂

wait so this badge
Campaigner
This badge is granted when you’ve invited 3 people who subsequently spent enough time on the site to become basic users. A vibrant community needs a regular infusion of newcomers who regularly participate and add new voices to the conversations.
I’m just confused because if this is if they sign up for the forums does that mean you email this to someone and they use that to make a make code arcade fourms account?

Three badges, actually.
You can get a badge for inviting 3 people and one for 5.
