Huwajux Posted November 23, 2009 Content Count: 4198 Joined: 03/23/08 Status: Offline Share Posted November 23, 2009 What with the new system and all, I'm guessing that there is going to be a drastic drop in the amount of HGs we have. Since former admins can now return, a bunch of HG applications flooding the CA section, and donating $20 guarantees you supporter status for life (albeit a cheapskate method ), I'm assuming there aren't going to be many left within a couple of months. Perhaps this is time we change the requirements for an 'Honourable Gamer'? I'm going to post a proposal in the CA section for this but as it is quite a switch in titles I'd like to see if the majority of players are cool with it too. Now that SG is purely a donation-funded community, we can use what little meaning the HG tag had to somewhat of an effect. If an individual manages to donate a certain amount (regardless of time-span), should they be eligible for the HG tag? For example, if someone paid their $20 but then continued to donate out of generosity until eventually they had racked up $100 in donations, they would aquire the HG tag. The description could be something as follows: "[sG.Hon] Honourable Gamer A member of the community who has earned recognition through their continuous donations. These individuals will have the option to wear the «SG.Hon» tag in-game rather than the standard «SG.Sup»" Ideas? Improvements? Criticisms?

However I think the HG title should be re-worked. Make is something obtained by merit rather than time/number of posts etc. Link to comment https://forums.steam-gamers.net/topic/24413-death-of-the-hgs/#findComment-291632

SilentGuns Posted November 23, 2009 Content Count: 4799 Joined: 08/14/08 Status: Offline Share Posted November 23, 2009 (edited) Sorry. Being a freeloader is fine and we don't need to change anything. Most of the applications will be rejected anyways. Award HG for actual outstanding activity in the community ( helping organize events, catching rule breakers, helping out new members ) not for paying or posting 400 one or two word comments.
