A few of us created a [new Discourse instance](https://discuss.python.org) and started using it for a bit. Then we decided to disable most badges. By then I had already earned some of the disabled badges. The badge events stuck around in my personal “recents” list (the dropdown under my user icon) but when I clicked on them I got a 404 from our server. You may still be able to try this; this is an example:

- [Discussions on Python.org](https://discuss.python.org/badges/5/welcome?username=guido)

IMO those events should be removed from my “recents” list (what do you call that thing?) or they should have told me something like “this badge has been disabled”.

( **UPDATE:** So maybe it’s not exactly a 404, but the response showed a “:(” icon with text “Page Not Found” and “Oops, the application tried to load a URL that doesn’t exist.” When you click on it from here you get a different but similar response: “Oops! That page doesn’t exist or is private.”)
