twofoursixeight reports that the Patron badge disappeared from the Dark Gaming forum after a recent update, returning a 404 error and vanishing from user profiles. The issue appears linked to a previous bug where voice badges overwrote custom badges. Since the user lacks staff access, they are unsure if the badge was permanently deleted or merely hidden in the backend.

Continuing the discussion from Voice badges overwrote a custom badge:

After another forum update to Dark Gaming, I am no longer able to find the Patron Badge on the Dark Gaming Forum. A 404 not found error occurs when going to the badge: https://forum.dark-gaming.com/badges/108/patron It was there before, but kinda glitched. Now, it is just completely gone. If you take a look at a user that once had this badge, like Profile - Dian - Dark Gaming, the Patron badge is no longer able to be found.

I opened the inspect console and the version of the forum is :information_source: Discourse v2026.11.0-latest — Commits · discourse/discourse · GitHub — Ember v7.3.0

I am still not a staff of the Dark Gaming forum, so I am unsure if it was fully deleted or just hidden.
