The CSS in page code doesn’t appear to differentiate new/returning user notices from staff notices, though these are very different types of notices. So, as near as I can tell, suppressing old notices via CSS suppresses all of them.

I would like to hide old new/returning user notices, but absolutely to **retain** the staff notices. Wondering if anyone can think of a workaround for this (short of [asking Discourse to include tag classes in the CSS](https://meta.discourse.org/t/post-notices-for-first-time-and-returning-users/112078/10))?
