I've clearly explained my stance, yes I'd prefer a one piece too but what no-one else has clearly stated is why they think the originally posted badge is inferior to JP's other than some differences in appearance.
Hello again Viletone,

I was just about to leave this infernal machine for a couple of hours but I spotted your response.

I can see, to a degree, why a comparison in two different badges up front, would suit some people, I find it hard to believe that you can dismiss the differences between the first badge and the other two as " some differences " it is totally spurious, IMO but I'm struggling to understand why you keep banging on about J.P.s badge as though someone has maligned it, I cannot remember anyone having a problem with his badge.

Again, if my memory serves me correctly, a couple of opinions have been stated that joachims variant is preferred, no one apart from yourself has mentioned J.P.'s apart from remarking that it has tabs and again, if my memory serves me well, that has never been an issue in this debate, can I ask, are you related to J.P. perhaps, you do seem to be going over the top in his defence, particularly when no-one has actually attacked him or indeed, his badge.

I am now totally confused with your stance, I'm sure I've missed something here ??

All the best.

Dave.
