Perhaps, but they have made it clear what sort of gameplay they favour. I didn't realise when I got involved in game to be successful I'd need to be part of a popularity contest.
Getting a decal is being successful?
And how is this a popularity contest?
I'd rather not receive special treatment. In fact, I'd prefer if we were all equal in game in the developers eyes. I can't think of another developer that cherry picks groups for special treatment because they like they way they are playing.
The developers cherry picks events. A large group of CMDRs got to Beagle Point. A large group that isn't part of any official group by the way.
So, how do you explain that I, who doesn't belong to any group, have a decal?
Because I was part of an achievement! Not because I was part of a group.
Just as rescuing 10,000 players is an achievement.
I haven't complained about anyones efforts but thanks for the slight. In fact my intentions are for everyone to be treated equally, if that casts me as someone of poor character in your opinion then so be it.
So, since you believe everyone is not treated equally, which achievement would you consider worthy of a decal?
Mind you, there has to be some sort of milestone involved. Otherwise I for instance would already be sporting the "Most Aromatic CMDR in the galaxy" decal. And I feel only deserve that when my aroma reaches some sort of milestone. Like becoming tangible or something like that.
