Is there a way to set your rank backwards? Like my rank now, could I go back and set it to Blank Flank again if I wanted to? Or if I get down to Unicorn, could I set it back to Dragon? If you can't, I think this would be a really cool thing to add.

It is not currently possible, and it's a very frequent suggestion!

This sums up quite well why this is not a feature. Although it is quite within our capabilities to bypass the technical limitations with a relatively minor amount of coding, the confusing nature of such a choice undermines the clarity that the badge system's very purpose attempts to portray. Perhaps in the event of a revamp of the purpose of badges, this may be possible (for example, unlocking various badges for all kinds of activities, only one of them posting; thus it would not be deceptive if a user had a different badge than their highest post one).

 

However in the current system, from what I know it is unlikely we will allow people to change their badges.

Again? Have fun with all the confusion that will come as a result of this being implemented. On all forums the purpose of these badges are just to show how many active posts you have. You can't personalise them or change them. You have avatars and signatures for that.

At thus time user selectable badges are not a feature, and due to their purpose user selectable badges are not something on the development radar. I'll close this question out as it has been completely answered. :)
