Argh, like I said, this issue was from last year, and believe me, bringing stuff from past is nothing but useless. But if you want to continue, then...

Thing is - as Meta said, even some professional wikis have badges (As far as I know, SAS Wiki is one of them, and I've never seen any spammy conception around there).

And also, if one is badgehunting, and therefore doing minor edits for badges or small / spammy conceptions, we can just:

- Warn them [if they minor-editted a lot]

- Delete their conceptions [if they did small / spammy conceptions]

- Block them [if they persist in doing so - block duration will increase depending on how many times they were previously blocked by badgehunting]

That's just a pratical and simple way to solve badgehunting.

And forget your discuss - it won't work. There's already many proofs that we don't need to remove badges - and the fact that there's no badgehunt in sight.

We can just deal with future badgehunts as well.
