Badges // What ones are there and how do I get them?

Hi everyone. 
I'm wanting to see a list of all the badges that are available to get and what you have to do to get them. I know some are automated like the number of posts or the birthday ones, but there are so many others that I want to know what they are, how to get them etc but when you click on the individual badges the pages are broken. I've tried searching for it but cannot find anything that helps.
Thanks, Abby

    Namedropper is what I got when I put a forum user’s name (example @GabiB).

    Mentioning someone in a discussion (like this: @Name) is a great way to encourage dialog and let them know who you’re talking to.

    So, just like using the quote system like most other forums, still don't see the reason for it!
