Merc Medal System
We don't have Trophy's in Dust but would it be cool to have a Merc Medal System in game and on the forums under or on your profile picture?
GÇó Closed beta player - black medal GÇó Open beta player - blue medal
GÇó 1000-2500-5000-GǪKills - Bloodred medal with ribbon I,II,III,IV GÇó 1000-2500-5000-GǪrevives - Medicinal green medal with ribbon I,II,III,IV GÇó Hours played - Mountain dew green with ribbon I,II,III,IV
GÇó Forum Contributions - White Medal GÇó Squad leader Ace - Yellow Medal GÇó ISK given ( philanthropist ) - platinum medal and something something for gold
And so Forth for:
Tank Titan, Dropship Duke, Hack-a-Lot, Logi love, Nova knife Naughtiness, maybe even racial stuff. But there no doubt will be better additions
Might be nice to add to the whole merc thing to have something to show for your accomplishments throughout Dust on the forums and in game.
Your thoughts,

We don't have those connections. But besides that point, I agree that I'd like some award to acknowledge my achievements. But now I can't think of anything else to call it. Battlefield achievements?
How do we describe the achievements of an immortal clone? Things which form the timeline of this clone's active term. Hmm... Nice, the first 2 replies are actually sensible ones, and i think Vyzion has a point, you can't pin a medal on a replaceable clone so Battlefield Badges are better.

So you put a medal/badge/achievement on a consciousness? that is way beyond what i was talking about, but i am not as well versed in all things EVE as you are, and i am impressed, this is interesting stuff now.
Also excuse my english it's not my native language

Kills Ribbon : 8000 / 16000 / 32000
Help Actions (repair / revives / drop uplinks / scan) : 12000 / 24000 / 48000
etcetc...
Should be reserved to REAL Vet.
Okay, will change, i'm really bad with numbers so i will leave that to clearer minds, but the noobs should get a medal/badge for getting their first 1000 right?

No, no please continue, you and true.. made my topic more interesting for me, but i really think a badge system would be another group of devs than the ones working on core mechanics, FW, PC and stuff. More likely people like CCP Rarara and his band

I don't see why not. It would be a good way to encourage players to keep playing AND to do there best. If it takes too long to get a single medal then some players may see that as just another grind.
Your signature is mighty big.
Also you are right, there should be minor medals/badges for people that are new, but the really big ones should be for the ones that supported this game from the start/fly a lot of dropships and die/ and so forth.
A lot of people are starting every forum post with; I was here since closed beta... With Battlefield badges that's no longer a problem. Everybody knows you are a vet and not to **** with you. Problem solved and E-Peen shown.

While us will try to get "Honorific title" Pretty cool huh ? And Service stars will make us play even more in factionnal Warfare to get/be awarded by Reductions on the LP store. And these will be shown on the forums. Who wants to be called "Commander" "Specialized Mercenary" or "Low-tier Mercenary" if you're a noob With Faction affiliations on.
Mon dieu! Very nice, could be a very fine addition to the Battlefield Badges, Stars and titles. All these will make Killscreens a lot more interesting, also you have a better idea of what you are up against and playing with when looking at the rosters.
