You don’t need a new topic for this question. I don’t know why Discourse didn’t issue you the badge you want. Reply to this with the post where your 1000 click link is and your post with 50 likes and I’ll look at it and try to issue you the badge you want.
Sorry for that and thank you.

The real answer as it turns out: badges don’t issue to posts in locked categories like Adult. We have to make changes to the back end of Discourse to make this work. I can’t just issue the badge to you.
Unfortunately, this requires someone other than me to fix and I’m sorry to tell you it’s fairly low priority/non-mission critical right now. We’ll try to get it done soon.
I posted my topic at the hosted games/works in progress category at first back in oct, then moved it in the adult section a month after and I didn’t get any badges then, even the 25 like badge.
But, I understand I just wanted to know. Thank you.
I don’t know what to tell you about the badges not being issued earlier, but after contacting Discourse support, they’ve made it clear that we really have no ability to issue badges for achievements in what they call “secure non-public categories.” Like Adult.
In their words: Badges are only awarded on public categories / topics and this is deeply embedded into the design.
As I said, I can’t speak to why a badge was not issued while your WIP was in a public category, but there’s nothing more I can do about it, unfortunately.

Ya - nothing any of us can do about it 
Discourse is not my favorite back-end support … and I am leaving out a lot by saying that 
So do you lose trust by not being on for a long time or can you be permanently marked as untrusted?
Your user level is affected by your useage; yes you can go down in user level from inactivity

Just something I thought I should mention to you as well Mary, it looks like badges you have on threads prior to being locked gets removed from your profile. I say this because I used to have alot of ‘nice reply’ badges and even got my first ‘good reply’ badge from threads discussing the Infinity Series. When @Zeroken09 mentioned his issue, I went to check my profile, just for curiosity and noticed both a decrease in number in my ‘nice reply’ badges and my ‘good reply’ badge gone. Once you mentioned about the badge not being issued on locked threads, I put 2 and 2 together.
I know, as you said, there’s nothing you can do on your end. Just thought it was worth bringing up to your attention.
