I'd like to renew my original proposition of phasing out the "Achievement Awards."

"I have another proposal for 2015, and that would involve finally phasing out the Achievement Awards and Award Monitor stuff. We considered doing this once before when the Badges were first implemented, but we never followed through. I think now would be a good time to finally do this, because they are kind of redundant with the badges and no longer really serve a purpose (and it's always been less effective because they have to be manually requested and placed, while the Badges are automatic). Any objections?
