Guild Wars 2

The title says it all. A badges to gold conversion at a rate of around 1 badge-1 silver.
Thoughts?

This already exists to some extent. I choose to use badges to buy my siege instead of gold, and thus that’s more gold in my pocket.

It gets a tentative yes from me. I know there is going to be howling about people instantly having 10g out of thin air, but I only have 150ish badges myself at the moment and it wouldn’t bother me a bit to let people do this.

I was just thinking about this while looking at the stacks and stacks of the badges in my inventory, thought it would be a good idea. People only have 3 uses of badges atm: to get the gear, to buy siege blueprints, and to buy the gift of battle.
