Has the threshold for the Guidance Counsellor badge changed? I was recently notified that I'd achieved it, but it has since disappeared even though I'm now up to 12 Solutions... ---

Are you asking why the badge doesn't appear next to your username? Do you have the title turned on in your user settings? ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/inductiveautomation/original/3X/e/2/e20b673dd16ef04cd06e0fb76fcfb0c70af5ce3f.png) ---

Hmm, the badge is still enabled and only requires 10 solutions. ---

I did turn it on, which is why I noticed that it disappeared. My user settings no longer give me that option. ---

It has disappeared from your public profile, even though your profile also says you have 12 solutions. Log out and log in, wait a day or two and see if Discourse fixes a bug 🤷 We didn't take it away from you on purpose 🙂 ---

What happens if someone selects a reply as the solution, but later unselects it or selects a newer post as the solution? ---

That's what I figured must have happened until I saw that I'm still listed as having 12 solutions... ---

As a test I just turned mine on... didn't know you had to do it manually ---

Today I see it announced once again that I've earned it, and gave me the option to select it as my title. ---

You may be caught in a time loop. Look for feelings of deja-vu.
