Resolved Badges missing?

[TD]

I know I'm high but it appears that ALL badges are gone?

 

[TD]

My sweet sweet badges.

 

[TD]

Yep, better grab the riot gear. These fuckers are not gonna be happy having to pick 6.

When I came back I already redecorated to 5.

...this is my fault isn't it.

What matters is that badges are back and Alu sucks.

I've always limited myself to 6

Cool, I think that solves the badge issue. Now back to the banning Jon thing...

Posting to see if I need to go select my badges.

Side note.

Are we sure badges were even the issue or did we just get lucky that fixed it?

I noticed in Ben's chart the names he highlighted all have D&D settings so I was wondering if that was why.

Or maybe badges / D&D don't like eachother.

Have I mentioned I'm happy I have my badges back?

Well, we landed on the badge quantity because it was very reminiscent of another add-on from way back and it’s easier than waiting to hear back from the dev. There was a similar system that used even smaller non-animated gifs that would add a block per every X value of reputation/karma, and over time… we’d fuck around and manipulate people’s stats manually. Eventually, if a thread got large enough or had enough heavily modified users in it, it would crash trying to load hundreds of copies of the same image and produce a similar dead page. You’d think it wouldn’t be an issue because the file would only be cached once, but since the server is calling on that file so many times per page, that can only alleviate so much of the pressure it puts.

I can only assume that with the leaps and bounds in technology since I was last more familiar with the stuff than I am now that servers have only become more impatient and less likely to sit around and wait before kicking out an error like that.

I feel like this has been solved but cannot decide on a singular post to mark as the resolution now that badges are back and we're to select our top 6.

Problem solved.

 

[TD]

MARK as the resolution.

That sloth is the best. It’s used anywhere applicable.

You likely have another one coming your way too, so these decisions aren't getting any easier.

That was the first thing I chased as the possible cause, but Crystal turned all the D&D modifications off and the pages were still broken, suggesting that wasn't the conflict.

There probably is supposed to be a limit to the number of badges. After skimming the code quickly I'd think it may be a conflict with the stylesheets and it fitting into the post info space, but I didn't try to mess with with it knowing Crystal and Lee already would have.

6 is enough for any reasonable human. Y'all out here trying to gather flair like you work at Chotchkie's.

6 is a good number, Mr. Fellow Lamb Chop 6 member.

...yeah yeah, you're right.

Take your damn react.

 

[Advocate for Ants! Mouth]

I also just realized that Lamb Chop is the only wolf/mafia related badge I have on display right now.

 

[Jon]

I think 6 is unreasonable

There are two ways to interpret this:

1) You've done a lot outside of wolf/mafia

2) You haven't done enough with wolf/mafia

Hey Alu sucks and has earned those Random category badges.

 

[Jon]

Hey Alu sucks and has earned those Random category badges.

Did he though?

I don't do that though. @Mark has made most of the random ones I have.

Correct. It all started with a nipple. The first legit badge added, if I’m not mistaken.

Nipples are the badge of the mammal chest.

The first ever badge was the seal of suck, I believe. But that was just a test.

You’re right. I knew you were involved somehow, though.

You're more than welcome to tinker if you want to, or even copy the style and make a test style to give it a try. If we find out it's not the badges after all, we can make Tortle Dude very happy indeed.
