Badges
Userbars for your profile and under your posts. Most of them you earn by posting, starting threads and getting ink. A few get handed out by staff, and no, you cannot farm those.
Your rank is a different thing: the plate under your name that changes as you post. The ladder is over here.

Undesirable
The ones nobody wants. Put on by an admin for the thing they are named after, worn on every post ahead of anything you chose, and they do not come off unless an admin takes them off. Catfish and Stained the software puts on by itself.
Reputation fell to the bottom tier, or the account was caught being a second one. Comes off when an admin lifts the stain, and not before.
Automatic
Caught running a second account. The stain can be lifted. This stays.
Automatic
Said something they knew was false, then kept saying it.
