I’m a member of three forums, have a ton of badges in one forum, a half-ton in another, and never got that badge, 😆 I’m fairly new on this forum and I never expected - or even thought about - getting it on this forum. That just the way it goes. Most badges come as a pleasant surprise when least expected. 😉
