I voted title...I have a buddy that plays GW...too cheap to pay for a game...anyways...they have titles for many different things...Exploration, quests, etc...I think it would be good but only for major accomplishments.

"should" yeah i agree but the way this game operates, so much is already "after the fact", so w/e give something to the casual gamer thats been playing for a few years, they deserve it ; )

- voted for titles

I'm just thinking of all the awards given in the scientific and other RL communities for long-term achievement. All of them could be considered "ex post facto". Lifetime achievement awards, yeah that's the name for it.

The existence of most lifetime achievement awards usually pre-date the achievements at issue. Even though they are awarded for what has been done, most, even including awards like the Nobel Prize, exist during the time that people do the acts leading to the award.

Thus, most lifetime achievement awards are not ex-post facto in nature. There are not simply an additional benefit given for what has already been done, since people can work toward them from the beginning.

More than two years after the launch of EQ2, I disagree with giving people a reward for choosing a particular path in game from the many different paths available. That is just rewarding people who were lucky enough to make a certain choice.

I only have about 500 quests done. If I knew there would be a special reward for doing 2500 quests, I would have done that rather than wasted so much time on crafting. But I picked wrong, so why should one activity in game be chosen over another to recieve such an award?

Seriously, if they are going to give a reward for a high amount of quests done, I also want a reward for # of epic x4 raid mob kills, and also for having 5 level 70 crafters.

how about this. Just like there are quests that you can only get when your character is 'powerful enough' in other words a high enough level. Why not a super uber quest when your character is 'experianced enough' in other words a shit ton of quests completed.

kind of like sending someone to investigate something. you dont send a seasoned soldier just because he can kill a dragon, you send a detective that knowns how to spot clues and follow leads. I.E dont send a raider! send a quester!

for example, they could open up qeynos castle and the overlord's tower, add NPC Queen/overlord and give them both a quest that they will only give to the most experianced Adventurers
After all the game is called everQUEST
