Comment (by jordesign):

 > To clarify, does this mean not-plugin/theme/reviews? OR does this mean
 must be in wordpress.org/support vs localised forums?

 Thanks for double checking. This was to mean  not the plugin/theme/reviews
 forums.

 > This isn't super straight forward for the forums, but can be done.
 Ultimately this means that we're going to have to create our own counters
 of replies for the purposes of this, rather than re-using the existing
 bbPress counters. Slightly complicating it, but not out of the question.

 That seems understandable. For what it is worth - a simple first pass
 would even be great - if extending to something like the separate counters
 is possible in the future. But would also understand if it makes sense to
 do it once 'properly' instead of in stages.

 > If plugins/themes/reviews are to be excluded, then just adding a
 checkbox for not included in badge count process makes this easy enough;
 with the caveat that it would only affect future replies once the feature
 is added.

 Limiting to future replies would be totally ok :)

 > Do you have some suggested text for this?

 I do now!

 "Congratulations @username on receiving the Support Contributor badge!"

 > We don't currently have any automated messages for badges. Perhaps we
 should consider adding that, rather than a support-specific one.


 That's an incredibly good point. I've just opened a separate Trac ticket
 for that.
