+1 I like the idea of honoring the players who have dedicated so much time, effort, and money to the server this is a perfect way to do that. Just a small token of thanks to these select few players who helps make ecc the best server in minecraft.

 

This is a great idea! Maybe something like a sheriff star and when they retire just put the big red bar on it :)

Many previous Staff members were not necessarily... "honorable," and others did not spend much time on Staff and/or have a chance to put time into it.

If anything, maybe a medal/badge for those who were SuperMod+ that did not leave on bad terms... However, it would be very difficult to track that (we've had over 160 total different Staff members - they are not all logged).

 

I feel like some people would apply for staff/get staff SPECIFICALLY to get the medal, and not to better the community.

 

As MoofinK stated, not all staff members are necessarily "honorable". Despite the fact that there are many, many honorable staff members, I feel that it shouldn't be implemented. Also, some users would go for staff especially for this medal.

Good and Bad in certain areas

 

Current staff members don't need a medal, we get a little banner.

As for former staff, I feel like it would only encourage flaming and things like "Why didn't so-and-so get the medal?".

 

So you don't think there are people who apply for staff that SPECIFICALLY want to have the power/commands/respect/popularity that comes with being a staff member? You're always going to have people applying who have motives other than bettering the server, with or without a medal.

 

-1 this would create an increase of staff that are not in it to help the server

 

-1 we became staff to help the server, not for a pretty medal <3

 

besides, they get that banner.

 

thats not what im saying at all im saying that there would be people that will become staff for the reward. they will app and he wont know there intentions.
