    Minecraft Name: DancingDonut

    Suggestion: To add a prefix on the server or forum medal for being on the server for 3+ or x amount of years.

    Reason: Because many members need to be appreciated for sticking on the server for a long time such as @kukelekuuk00 (The best cactus) @MoofinK @DancingDonut @WeWinAgain @Jetscat @Unknownrider @BLTwitch and other members. By the years these old members are becoming rarer and rarer as the server grows.

    Any Other Information: I don't really have an idea of what the prefix should be. Maybe "Oldie" or "Veteran". I have to admit, I was inactive for some time due to school and being busy with real life.

    Link To This Plugin:
    No need for additional plugins.

    I apologize if I left out any other names. :oops:
    I personally only think that people who joined in 2011 are old members. (The
    first year of the server)

    Forum medal would be nice, but a tag in-game would probably drive me nuts. Even though I'm an old member, I don't want newbies swarming to me for free things or asking tons of questions. :p

    However, I know a couple people other than Kuke who also would not want the recognition. I'd all for the idea if it's a forum medal that can be applied for with the only requirement being on the server three years.

    Yes, but you do not acquire a medal.

    A forum medal would be enough, I dont think an in-game tag will be necessary

    Personally speaking coming from a relatively new member (1.5 years on ECC), this wouldn't truly be "necessary". As @MoofinK and @kukelekuuk00 stated earlier, it would cause a lot of trouble for them. Even a forum medal would be a little over the top. You get the trophy points and that should be enough. If a medal were to be added, I wouldn't care, but the in-game tag is over the top.

    Maybe our rank on the forum could just be like "Mayor | 1" or 2 3 4 etc. I kinda have to agree that it would cause issues.

    Trophy points and your joined date both show how senior you are.

    -1. Forum medal is enough. If this is implemented, I think only those with custom tag should receive it.
