Misbah, I don't have a top writer badge, but I believe I'm better than many writers with over ten badges. What do I care about a top writer badge? Yes, I'm ignorant, but I'm also practical. I come from the marketing industry, and I can fake an NYT top-selling book with a few thousand dollars. I don't think talent is about rewards and badges. It's simply about challenging the status quo boldly, logically, and with a strong sense of emotional connection. Talented doesn't have to be the best, but they have to be entirely different from the rest in a presentable way. Not a bunch of idiots who do crazy stuff that makes no sense, then call them geniuses.
