Badges and general chattiness of Discourse

Hmm… I agree with @aphity on this one. Receiving the super basic badges in wuite an anti-climax. Oh, I got a notification! No, it’s just First Emoji… I don’t want it to be completely turned off, however. If perhaps, there is a new feature to disable notifications for a specific badge section, say Getting Started, turning it off completely site-wide would mean disabling Nice Reply. After being on Meta for quite a while, I only received Nice Reply today. I would want to know when I get this notification, so it’s tough, really, to disable badge notifications. Also, turning off badge notifications may confue users as they wonder how come they have never received the badge in their notifications.
