I hit the allowance ceiling once from odd circumstances (catching up lost reading time over one week, [in my edge case](https://meta.discourse.org/t/only-21-likes-allowed-in-24-hours/798/53).) That and I think the default number of given likes allowed in a set period was lower at the time.

Getting a badge for that would make me smile. And when I needed it the most; `*exhale*` A “hit likes ceiling” badge would say “okay, stop clicking the hearts or you gonna keel from reverse operant conditioning headaches again.”
