Well I was thinking long term say year 4 or 5 you would be talking about the time frame to be considered a Founder 1-2% of the time the game had been around. I think the Founders are a great idea to promote the game just dont see many in game anymore, not like I did when I first started playing, honestly what happens anytime a Founder pops up on the Tortuga beach on an A server. They are surounded and recieve enough friend and crew request to crash the server. To me it just kinda shows newer players that there are players who have been around a long time and still find the game fun enough to keep playing!

Good Idea Max

Wow look at all the people who say no.. well i say yes... i was here when founders were going out but i didnt know what it was.

I voted NO. You were either here at that point in time or you came along later.

If Disney ever did a color or font for other players, it should be on an anual basis - every 6 months is too often.

Changing HOW a pirate is recognized I agree with. But, not changing the a Founder is DEFINED - different things.

While it would be nice to have a little medal or something next to Eliza's name - I won't whine if it doesn't happen (at eighteen months, the ol' girl would have a nice set though).

I'm sorry to all who arent founders but as most people are saying..A founder is a Founder nothing else so it's kind of fair to only allow it to the earliest of players. (not just because i'm a founder)

I think maybe a One Year Veteran Badge or something.

What are your opinions and if yes what kinda time frame and should you have to of been unlimited the whole time to be included?

What's the point of that? It would completely ruin the meaning of founders.

Besides, I don't get why people go crazy over a nametag.

I just want the Sparrow flag you guys got.

Captain Whale 10-24-2009 04:53 AM

LOL - Aye that was an awesome flag!!

While it would be nice to see some kind of Annual tag - different colors for the amount of years you have been a member the problem is pretty soon everyone has tags and they kind of lose thier meaning. I wish I would have found the game right away too. I missed the black and red bandanas too. But I got in on the St. Patrick's day green stuff and a mother's day tattoo and I am sure there will be more to come here and there.

I do like that they have some special items that show you were here when that happened. So I don't think founders should be changed. A badge for 12, 24, 36 months ect.. would be nice but probably not needed. I do think they should offer some kind of special clothing/tattoo once in awhile to give us something to have. Pirates sportin all of them would be recognised as having been here awhile.

my two cents...

Or the longer your a member the colour would change from all players (like 0-6 is just blue, then 6-12 bronze, then 12-18, silver then 18-24 gold... something like that).

This way players who continue to join / play would have something to continue to look forward to as their names advanced through the colours as they progressed through time...

Something like that :D

best idea EVER
