[SOLVED] For challenge-oriented badges, can you earn the same XP several times from multiple badges?

So today, I got 200 wins in Java. The respective badge awards 350XP so I was expecting 350XP. However I did not get the XP. I remember, however I got 350XP when I got 200 wins in C++ just a few months ago. So, does this mean that this does not apply anymore or is this something that I should report to Sololearn? Thanks! P.S. This is like the 6th or 7th time I should be earning this badge, so please let me know if this has something to do with the achievement as well.

Prometheus mail sololearn they are one who can answer this with surety, in past the xp is given for unlocking badge requirements in different languages. So contact them at [email protected] and explain them your situation.

Yes definitely HonFu . I myself have earned epic in Python, JS, PHP and HTML and gotten 500XP from each.

HonFu Read the attached message behind every badge and you notice the wording that they use "for each weapon" Also if Senior Developer could be earned multiple times I would be earning a lot of XP really quickly.

HonFu You won't see the badge reappear, but you'll get the XP, at least that WAS how it was

HonFu In essence, this applies only to badges for challenges.

HonFu but trust me, I have gotten XP like that before. It means that for any one weapon you get the XP. Apply this for more than 1 weapon.

I've done challenges in six or so languages... I think I never got the xp for a badge again.

Sonic I have checked though, and I had been credited with the respective 500XP

Prometheus, interesting, I didn't know or realize it! Should I go for epic again then? 😂

Is this true for other badges as well that you can cash in xp several times even if you can't get the badge again?

So if I get 50 upvotes on a code, I won't get 500 xp again for 'Senior Developer'? How does that make sense?

Prometheus, next to the badges I see the line 'using one weapon' which just means that you have to accomplish the described feat using just that one weapon. Where do you find the line 'for each weapon'? About Senior Developer you must be right, otherwise celebs like Mitali would have to be higher in level.

Prometheus, wow, you're right! Getting to 100 challenges in C was the closest checking point. I did it and indeed got the xp again! oO I would find it more consistent if this either didn't happen or if it happened with other 'virtual gainz' (Gordon 😏) as well.
