I still have a badge - but I don't feel I'm entitled to it. I haven't been particularly helpful for the past four years because I've retired and don't need an LMS any more.
I love the Moodle community and continue make one or two posts a year. Apparently that's enough to be considered as "helpful". What are the rules for losing the badge?

Hi Mel,
There was a typo in what Gordon posted. I think this will work:

Don't get many opportunities these days to justify my "Particularly helpful Moodler" icon.
Hi Tom,
I do the same as Gordon except that I use Virtual Box to be able to run Hot Potatoes on my Mac. I've no idea if Virtual Box is better or worse than VMWare Fusion - anybody have an opinion? The Java version of Hot Potatoes that runs on Mac has been in beta for years and there are no plans to develop it. It's much easier to make Hot Potatoes exercises on Windows and you can make WebRhubarb, WebSequitur and Quandry exercises too.
Cheers,
Glenys
Hi everybody,
Because I don't read German, I hadn't realised Alan had integrated
Hot Potatoes exercises into his
e-books. There's an example of a JCloze exercise here: http://stories4learning.com/deutsch/zucker/ - click through to page 12. You'll notice that as you type in words, the gap gets wider.
Alan has plans to integrate other types of Hot Pot too.
Cheers,
Glenys
Hi Gordon,
You seem to be right. Because of what he says on his homepage: " S4L also allows dynamic generation jumbled sentence puzzles pulled directly from a full online text by using an adapted version of the popular 'Hot-Potatoes' software." I assumed that his quizzes were HotPot too in fact they're Quiz.
Maybe someone else could suggest another site that does use TaskChain and where visitors can self enrol.
Sorry for creating confusion.
Glenys
