Category setting: do not count post created

ou can use a categories Edit -> Settings to turn off

Allow badges to be awarded in this category

That will mean that posts in the category don’t count towards getting any badge that uses posts as a basis for granting badges.

But it will not affect a members post count nor affect their Trust Level.

Yes.

On old forum boards, they needed this because post count was the most important thing a member could have. People were elitist with those counts and so.

On Discourse badges fill this role, so we enable disabling badges in off topic categories.
