Suggestion for Achievement Ribbon

[Shayla]

Legion of Myth (SWG) Achievement Ribbon

The Legion of Myth (SWG) General Order 030701-4 authorized this ribbon. It is awarded to members serving within the Legion of Myth (SWG) who shall have distinguished themselves by outstanding achievement or meritorious achievement and service rendered both in-game and out of game specifically on behalf of the Legion of Myth (SWG).

;D
I would like to recognize Kodoss for this ribbon these are my reasons why.

When ever I log on he is always there to assist in anything needed. On several occasions he has helped out me with getting xp, or creds. I always know that he is there to help me when I need it. God knows I'm the worse Rifle user in the game. I also know that he has helped most of us if not all of us at one point in time or another. He has done so much thought that I can't possable list them all.

In short Kodoss in my oppinion has met all the requirements for this ribbon and should be awarded it Post haste. Again this is my oppinion and I cant forse the issue but I think exemplifies what it takes to be a member of LoM and what we should strive for.

As written, the Achievement Medal is DENIED

Since I know you're an NCO in the AF, and I hope you've had a troop or two that you have written an EPR or a Medal on ...

... give facts!!

How much time did he help you at a cost of his own?
How much cash did he give you?
How many items did he give you?

Here, I'll help you ... I know he's put at least 33,000 into the PA Hall ... plus whatever it cost for the deed. He gave me 80,000 over the span of a few days to help me get to Novice Commando. That's 113,000 (plus deed cost) he's given to the guild right there.

Add that to the 'medal package'. If anyone has anything else to add to help Kodoss get a medal, post it here.

I'm all for giving medals to those who deserve them ... but I want facts, not "I like {name} so I want him to have a medal".

Would you like that in bullet format or do you want that in Statement form. Another question of mine would be do you need 30 statements for the justification or do you only need 15. Please advise so I can put the best leg forward. In the AF we only need to have 30 at the most.

Bullet format is good ... so is Paragraph format. I'll let you decide. (Remember, this is an Achievement Ribbon we're talking about now, not just a Recognition Ribbon ... make it goooooood.)

For an Achievement Ribbon, I'd like to see one of the following:

1. For a single event award ...
- Three ways that player selflessly went out of his/her way to make that single event/occurrence happen in a manner that other players didn't or wouldn't do.
- These ‘ways’ should have caused inconvenience or potential set-back for the player and/or character (i.e. time that potentially holds the character back and/or below his/her peers, cash not easily or quickly earned, etc).

For example:
- Shayla giving Allandhra an active (unused) Holocron at no cost would certainly be an example.
- Callandryn telling people to check the message board would not be an example.

2. For a generic award ...
- Four separate occurrences where the player selflessly (and without showing favoritism) went above and beyond what other guild members don't or won't do.

For example:
- Telling new people where the Trainer on Rori is four times does not count.
- Paying for the training, equipping and travel of members ... while sacrificing three days of his own time searching around the galaxy for such equipment and trainers ... all the while holding himself back from individual improvement would count. (As long as he wasn’t skipping other guild needs (like raids, etc).

(Note: Showing ‘favoritism’ to active and helpful members is accepted. Showing favoritism to a specific profession or to a single hunting buddy is not).

All activities worth a ribbon MUST be self-sacrifice for the betterment of the Legion of Myth as a whole.

For a Commendation Ribbon, I'd like to see one of the following:

1. For a single event award ...
- Five ways that player selflessly went out of his/her way to make that single event/occurrence happen in a manner that other players didn't or wouldn't do.
- These ‘ways’ should have caused great inconvenience or potential large set-back for the player and/or character (i.e. time that holds the character back and/or below his/her peers, an amount cash one could not expect to see again, etc).


2. For a generic award ...
- Seven separate occurrences where the player selflessly (and without showing favoritism) went above and beyond what other guild members don't or won't do – putting himself/herself (individually) at a disadvantage (or setting himself/herself back greatly) while in turn strengthening the whole of Legion of Myth.

---

For a Meritorious Service Ribbon, I'd like to see one of the following:

- God doesn’t even qualify for this ribbon. hehe j/k

1. For a generic award (there are no event awards for the MSR) ...
- Ten ways that player selflessly went out of his/her way for the Legion of Myth that caused a great loss to the player character AND held great risk of catastrophic loss to the player character.
- Show examples of how without efforts of this person LoM may (and probably will) cease to exist.

As always, this is all open to discussion with you officers. If you think a Ribbon is too easy or to hard to attain, post your comments. We discussed much of this in the past and wanted to make Ribbons (outside the Recognition Ribbon) to be difficult to attain ... worth of wearing.

Sooooooooo ... Kodoss hasn't helped anyone else in-game? No one has anything to add to this potential Achievement Ribbon?

[Aja]
