As this is the discussions board I thought I'd post this as an idea (although I believe I posted roughly the same on the old forum...zero response of course 
)
Listen up Devs...how about giving some in-game credit to the vets who play....no end of r60+ players flying around with under 40k mantis kills...so...how about something...in game...free...(not the skin jobs you get with membership) that indicates that a player has put some long hard slogging into the game...say something after 50, 75, 100k and up mantis kills...may also give a little more incentive to the game...and don't tell me about the gold skull scenario...it proves nothing really...in fact a parsec must be equal to who knows how many gold skulls as it is a badge for sheer perserverance...nothing more.
Opinions appreciated...of course this idea will be poo-poo'd by those who like to zip through the game (and subsequently whinge cos they are bored and the next system isn't ready before tea time). But there are a fair few of us who have been in-game for longer than most (yes we have belly-ached and moaned but stuck with PG because it is, essentially, a damn good game). How about we are given some recognition for that.
And if, Devs, by some strange twist of fate, you actually decide to honour us...make it COOL....make it worth wanting...pour encourager les autres...something that stands out like a boil on a ********'s *** for all to see.
I have 107k+ kills, 735 missions accomplished, 521 bps, all in-game rares (probably the 1st to do so back before the two new ships), 32 locations explored (most have only 31 but i know where the gold bp planet is...lol)...i am NOT a true VAGMSX finaliser (mainly cos it sounds pants and I have some Mizar/Sol whites to complete...Draconis will be a while so why be bored???)
And I love this game
edit: forgot to mention I have also been identified as the next Pope...and Star trek captain...and...anything you ever wanted to be suckers..lol
