That way, 'veteranship' will be granted on at least some sort of merit, rather than, say, someone who joined early and played for two months then never played again getting it. "Veteran" implies someone with a long time's worth of experience, after all.
I thourougly disagree on using an xp level. Not everybody who's been playing for a while has tones of xp is able to get the troops into more than one or two missions a day. Also "veteran" does not imply someone with experiance. My sister spent less than two years total in the army and had to be honorably discharged do to a torn knee; she is legaly considered a veteran.
That said we can't simply go and make every account registered before the onset of v2 a game vet either. What I would like to see is perhaps something along the line of those who have been members for at least six months or a year and have been reasonably active in that time made veterans. this would be much fairer to those who have not had much time to play
sorry about your sisters knee,
you have very good ideas too, however the more than six months idea would be rather hard cos that means about 11,000 players turning veteran.
then the movie joiners will complain and say stuff like thats way unfair they ALL get something cool and we don't.
