I want to thank the several people who added "Apprentice" certifications to me today; now the system finally says that I'm certified. I still think there is something amiss with the certification system.
Let me review just the first nine certifications:
- miniver certified me as a Journeyer, and he used to be certified as a Journeyer -- now he shows no certification at all, just like I did. He has ten listed certifications from people who are themselves certified; why is he uncertified now?
- nixnut certified me as a Journeyer, and he is currently certified at the Apprentice level.
- matt certified me as an Apprentice, and he is currently certified at the Apprentice level.
- ncm certified me as an Apprentice, and he is currently certified at the Master level.
- edw certified me as an Apprentice, and he is currently certified at the Apprentice level.
- mettw certified me as an Apprentice, and he is currently certified at the Journeyer level.
- cbbrowne certified me as an Apprentice, and he is currently certified at the Master level.
- jLoki certified me as an Apprentice, and he is currently certified at the Journeyer level.
- mobius certified me as an Apprentice, and he is currently certified at the Master level.
- khoerling certified me as a Journeyer, and he is currently certified at the Apprentice level.
- lerdsuwa certified me as an Apprentice, and he is currently certified at the Journeyer level.
How many certifications does it take? edw has 4 certifications (not counting himself), and is currently certified at the Apprentice level. Why wasn't I considered certified at all with 8 certifications from other certified users?
Is there some kind of "anti-certification" going around, that miniver and I have been tagged with, or what? Why would I have previously been certified and suddenly become uncertified? This is very confusing...
