Well, your post came off as being bitchy about which combos you like and which combos you don't think look good. You don't have to say something directly to get your point across. You included what your friends said to prove your point that some badges don't look as good. To me, that is in VERY poor taste.

Each badge should be appreciated even if it doesn't suit your taste. It may not have any more special meaning just because of the jewels... But, I don't think that necessarily gives us the right to flippantly discuss the beauty of a badge combo. It's not just piece of jewelry. It's a personal outward statement of our commitment to ZTA. So, to me, criticizing any badge is off-color.

It's almost like a wedding dress. You may not like someone else's dress. But, you don't have to like it. How do you think someone might feel if they have one of the badges you mentioned in your post?

I don't care if you have been a ZTA for 2 months or 20 years... If there's something that I feel would help someone to be a better sister, I'll let them know. And, believe me, there have been things that I have done where I have been corrected. So, stop being so defensive. It'll keep you from growing and learning. There's always a different perspective. Be adult enough to realize that.

You say that you watch your actions and words on here. But, then you post this: C'mon. That's just insulting to many here.

Let's get this thread back on track which is about ZTA badges that end up on Ebay. Any subsequent posts that have any arguing of any kind will be deleted.
