HC Medal of Honor
Quote:
The Medal of Honor is awarder to a person who, while a member of the Army, distinguished himself conspicuously by gallantry and intrepidity at the risk of his life above and beyond the call of duty while engaged in an action against an enemy of the United States.
Imagine a star, far about golden points and quality points.
The highest award that HC has to offer, a Point of Honour presented by the Administrator of Heroes Community himself.
Like a qp, but much harder to get and much rarer.
There could be special conditions under which you could recieve one.
eg.
-Must be a HC resident (a member of 2 years +)
-Must have no penalties
-Must be an Honourable Hero
-Must never ask/hunt for one ( )
And it would be awarded for a post which, rather than the top 2% is like top 0.00001% of posts, so that only the most distinguished members would get one.
That would be wicked.

I think in such cases it would be a great honour simply to be nominated

The QP's we had before we took on the sword and shield still remain on our posts - we just can't ever get more. The shininess is over for us now

Minimum two years sounds reasonable.
Honorable is fine too.
As for penalties though, I prefer Consis' suggestion

hehe, I agree 
Anyone that received penalties - but stuck around and still kept this place worth coming back to should still be eligable

This would be an awesome idea, maybe some things like this could change:
Being a member for 2 years, that then takes out many respectable posters, such as Iris, Kookastar and other people.
Maybe make it 6 months, that might be better?
And as for the honourable, make it for anyone except for people that have -3 or less qps, 1 red star.

I dont agree with this but why just have one medal?
Why not have medals for different varieties of posters.
Medal for best noobs, medal for famous Vet.
Medal for the hardest working, medal for the best mod etc.
The works.
I dont agree with it because I think of many in different ways.
As usual no one agrees with me

lol actually I think that would be pretty awesome, having seperate medlas for seperate things like you said:
best noob, best poster or whatever.
That would be really cool

Either way it will cause friction or silent jealousy because people will think they deserve the medal etc.
Well if it is agreed there should be elections then so it would be fair
A poll wont work because there will probally be more people in nominee the a pool can fit

There are other Honourable heroes. It's just the highest rank you can achieve (ignoring post count), so it is logical that you'd have to have reached this by the time you get the next level.
I don't think that Undefeatable Hero is necessary because there are only 2, right? Doesn't make for much contest And post count is more for spamming than honour. You could say it shows that you've been here a while and aren't a noob, but that's why the 2 years minimum thing is in place so it doesn't go to some new rising star who fades out after they run out of jokes
Having to be a moderator sounds good as well. As for the other suggestions, they are similar to mine like the 2 years and 4 red stars. And having to be good at heroes would also add to the prestige, so that noobs can't discredit you on the grounds of the actual game.
Consis has got the right idea. William, on the other hand, hasn't. That's more like the poster of the month idea. 
@William:
The medal of honour isn't like poster of the month, which celebrates the great and entertaining posters at the time. This is a decoration of a member's history, and is very respectable, and they have to have earned it over 2+ years. 6 months is too short.
Again, it's not a star to say "Hey, you're cool!" but like, you are looked up to, and honoured.

Not true...
25 qps - admirable hero like RSF, Hydra
50 qps - praiseworthy hero like Dingo last april fools day
We can suggest all we want, the problem is nothing that we say is ever going to be implemented or take 2 years to implement...

Horrible idea Titanium.
FOr one who cares about who gets one medal.
For two It will be good for the person who wins it. The person will feel guilty also because there will be agreement or disagreement.

Well I've already talked to val about things like this, and I'm used to his responses by now. I'm positive val would politely say no, and we don't need status stars and points to prove who we are. In his own words (mid paragraph) "You're too status oriented" (I think there was a after that). But it doesn't really matter, because for reasons unknown all of the AoH team has almost stopped posting.
I think they're up to something, bigger than the fan-made manual.
Val's posting stats (substantially diminished now)
Posts in the last 24 hours: 0
Posts in the last week: 6
Posts in the last 60 days: 38
Posts in the last year: 745
Sfidanza'a stats (Sfidanza never was a frequent poster, but this is still very little)
Posts in the last 24 hours: 1
Posts in the last week: 4
Posts in the last 60 days: 26
Posts in the last year: 153
ThE_HyDrA's stats (I would belive he left, but he still posts at AoH)
Posts in the last 24 hours: 0
Posts in the last week: 0
Posts in the last 60 days: 0
Posts in the last year: 20
Lich King's stats
