Achieved Completionist Status for this Hacktoberfest! (Now aiming Completionist++ prob)
Sir @francistrdev, I've got a serious issue!
Thing is I had once logged in using my college account to DEV, and then requested to delete it a month ago. It's still not deleted and somehow MLH added it to connections(Also, the profile is not explicitly connected to MLH):
Now I either need @star_dev account to be deleted as I requested a month ago or it to simply be removed from myMLH profile. But nothing has been changed. Also, my all hacktoberfest badges got transferred to wrong profile and I did everything, I mailed, I added a ticket on discord which got completed but issue didn't get solved.
If someone had been with something like this please help me!
@heyitsjem @ben @jess Can you look into this issue? @star_dev needs to be deleted in @dj29 request but is not deleted?
@dj29 You should be able to remove it from your mlh, but that's fascinating that it doesn't let you to begin with...
Are you able to log into that account again? Maybe you can request to delete it again and see if the DEV team can transfer those badges. You might need to verify that account is actually yours, but that's not up to me to decide unfortunately.
Yes, I'm able to log into it:
See? MLH is not connected.
And it says this on trying to delete it:
Also, I don't get any further mail.
Also, sorry to bother you Sir @francistrdev 🥲
No need to apologies! Again, I like helping and it brought me joy to see someone asked me for assistance lol.
I would submit an email to the DEV team stating that you would like to delete this account with proof of email that you use that for that account. Then mention to move all the hacktober stuff onto your @dj29.
Already tried that:
probably last week. Also, thanks as always!
I would just wait and see how it goes. If they don't reply within another week or 2, check back on the email
Hey @dj29, sorry about the delay. I'm looking into this now. Thanks for the assistance @francistrdev 🫡
Anytime :)
A few things:
Way to go for pushing through! That's a lot to accomplish for a week. 😀
Thanks. 😄
It was a good experience bro, next time we'll do better!
Sure, definitely we'll do better next time!
became a Completionist++ in this year's Hacktoberfest.
Does it end here or there is milestone 5? And good for you!
Thanks!
I don't think there's a milestone 5, since there's no new milestone on my hacktoberfest profile.
It might be that there's certain conditions needed for milestone 5 like more points and challenges completed. For now, I don't know if there's any new milestones.

Slop Coding: The Vibe Archeologist Strikes Again!
Just celebrated latest RustFS release with security analysis :
Published a walkthrough on writing a correction after a coding agent builds a UI. The hypothetical example shows how to specify a mobile overflow fix while keeping the existing React components and palette, then check the relevant viewport widths.
I'm building Ahed around prompt composition and follow ups. The article is labeled as AI generated and includes a prompt you can adapt.
The walkthrough
I love how the community highlights wins ranging from fresh FAQ templates to nailing Completionist status in Hacktoberfest, because those micro‑victories keep the creative spark alive. This week I finally organized my maine-license-plate.org converting a long‑standing backlog into a tidy, searchable archive that felt surprisingly rewarding. That sense of closure has already inspired me to draft a reusable snippet for future retrospectives, so the next round of achievements can be captured and celebrated even faster.
Got 2 badges for the same article 🥳
Relatable humor about daily Python struggles
You’re a Real Python Developer Only If...
Note: Getting the Python badge Wasn't so easy! 😅
Congratulation!
Thank you so much 🤩
Made some IoT progress with my students : make API data become real :
My win this week: I gave my third court AI talk on Friday, and the jokes landed. I've learned I don't love public speaking, but I'm proud I did it at all, three times, a year after my first line of code. I wrote it up here: dev.to/earlgreyhot1701d/ai-took-me...
