this is a periodic reminder to everyone who has badges, DO NOT OPEN THE BADGE ARCADE ON YOUR PRETENDO NETWORK PROFILE. you WILL lose all of your badges. for more info/help, go to the "badge issue help desk" thread in the support channel on the pretendo discord server!

despite not opening the badge arcade in PNID, using GYTB, or trying to meddle with my badges in any way, i lost my badges on the NNID side. still trying to figure out where they are or how to get them back. remember to back up your SD cards, people!
