That’s good to know at least. I had a weird time with it, too. At least I was able to get on long enough to read that it was the certificate. After that I messed it all up. It’s on the pile of “fix this soon” things.

Posting here rather than PM to bump the thread, in case other people end up with this issue and have forgotten; I had to do some searching for it myself, two months later. I just got the Anniversary badge two nights ago, but not the Devotee badge. Currently 367 days visited and I joined on 10/1/21. Even more odd, I’m fairly sure I logged in on the day the SSL cert was expired and still didn’t get the badge…

I guess you were gone for a while, @LemonadeJoe, but just recently saw some activity by you so I’m giving this bump one more try.

I had a similar concern all the way back when the server downtime was announced!
just followed up with @LemonadeJoe about this very thing about a week ago. He said he would look into it at that time. Haven’t heard back from him yet, but it’s nice to share this boat with ya @Cormoran

Yeah, unless somebody found a workaround to sign in on those days, nobody was able to get the “devotee” badge last year because of the downtime.
I joined Nov 23rd of 2021, and visited 484 days since then, so every day except the certificate days, same thing for @Cormoran and apparently for you.
It’s disappointing to me because I think the “gamified” forum is fun and I really made an effort to earn the Devotee status, but @LemonadeJoe has many other jobs beyond verifying whether we should have gotten a badge, so we’ll have to wait another year.

Yeah, that was a bit of a bummer for many. People do love their badges, lol. Perhaps LJ can work this out but either way, it’s coming around again I was one of the few that logged in during the outage so I got my badge but still, I appreciate folks being a bit disappointed they missed out over the SSL issue.

It’s mainly because I wanted it for my first active year. I liked the idea of joining, and visiting every day for a year to really get a feel for the place.
I may not have gotten the badge, but I certainly got acquainted.
