Badges & Achievements
Hi there,
I got a notification, that I earned my 3 years' badge. This brings me to a page, which URL looks like this: techcommunity.microsoft.com/t5/badges/userbadgespage/...
This page shows a number of badges. If I look on the achievements page in my profile, the number of achievements listed there differs from the number listed on the special badges page. Why?
And, it seems that I can not access the badges page from my profile. Why?
Best,
Mourad

I started a list here:
Feel free to let me know if you see something missing.
Thank you.
Mourad-Louha , interesting. Finally I found the page you mentioned, same story. In my case two extra badges are
Perhaps they are not supported any more. Anyway, I could only agree these two actually are not achievements, as well as some others.
Hi SergeiBaklan,
yes, maybe they are no more supported. I have 4 more on the badges pages as in the achievements page, including the two one you mentionned and Add Bio, Set Location. I don't care too much of badges, but I think, that when a user receives a badge notification and is redirected to a page, that is not accessible from the profile, it is confusing.
Best,

Add Bio is in both collections. Location still isn't set.
I used badges at the beginning to calculate some MTC stats and compared with O365 network. Badges were practically the only source of information. I didn't check them for a long while, but it's still some interesting figures here. For example
- Member of the week, earned by 237. Assuming one new member in a week and with 53 weeks in a year (actually some less) we have 4.5 years. But MCT exists from June 2016, half an year less.
- 100K milestone earned by 99,611. Where another 389 disappeared?
That's more weekend exercises, nothing serious.
