Hi.


Because I believe I discovered the secret, I feel it is very, very, very easy to become one, in a single week, too.

To fully answer your question, yes it is easy!

Not in polls and surveys.

Yahoo no longer gives out a Top Contributor badge in that section.

Otherwise it is easy if you answer well or if you only answer friends or questions that have no other answers.

Simply answer a bunch of questions with a high number of Best Answers and you are likely to get a badge.

I have none on this account and I prefer it that way.

The badge is like a bullseye on your account and it does not show up come voting time so if the asker does not care about it then it is worthless to you.

I simply answer as best I can and that makes me happy now.

In my opinion, no it's not. I feel that it serves it's purpose which I feel is to separate the people who just mess around on Y! and those of us who actually try to give helpful answers. By the way I had one in Music & Music Players but I went on a vacation to L.A. and I lost it. Maybe an additional VIP contributor or maybe Superb Contributor badge would be more realistic than just making the standard TCB harder to get.

Yes, because you just work hard and keep answering as hard as you can & having best answers to the category. I just receive mine after 1 week of working on it. so it is too easy to get the Top Contributor badge. Best wishes!

Thats true on my last account I had a top contributor badge and so did a lot of other people because people could get them by answering one word but usually answers have to have more thought I think thats jokes and riddles and wordplay shouldnt get them either if we dont get them
