I’m not sure if this is a bug, but take a look at these two screenshots:
In this case, my avatar shows the discourse symbol even if it normally would not.
In this other case, @mpalmer’s avatar doesn’t show the discourse symbol even if it normally would.

Yeah, you have to handle the expanded-reply area (embedded posts? sorry spacing on the terminology) if you want to use custom css for the poster-avatar-extra div for specific groups. In my forum I just don’t use poster-avatar-extra within the expanded replies, but it would be nice if that could be worked around.

Hmm if we can repro this it is a bug @neil and should be folded into improvements with group avatar overlays – along with mobile support, and user page support..

Oh so that’s what the C in CSS means. I’ll look at the CSS again.
The markup is very awkward so I don’t think the CSS can be fixed until the markup is changed somehow.

From a quick look with dev tools I think that the badge is actually a DOM
element, it’s not added with CSS (maybe it can be done with ::after?). So
if it is as I think it is, the change needs to be done on the mark-up, not
just CSS

Yes and No. If the ‘group-team’ class gets added to the markup for ‘topic-avatar’, it should solve the problem, as then you could use `topic-avatar.group-team` so it only applies to that div/group of elements instead of the entire post/article that it is applying to now.
So duplicating the class onto the topic-avatar, changing the CSS to use `.topic-avatar.group-team`, should resolve the issue.

Remember to not _remove_ it from the other location, some customers are using it to e.g. put a special border around staff posts.

@neil perhaps worth adding to your list?

Already fixed it a while ago:
