Please include players with 2 yrs of loyalty in the "Veterans"

No disrespect to anyone on here, but honestly, its just a recolored back vanity. You could buy a bronze or silver back vanity, and it'll have the same effect "oohhh here's something I'll wear for a while, then wear something else when that new item catches my interest"

And before anyone starts pointing at me for being a PL veteran, I've played AL during initial release, then stopped because at the time, PL was where my friends were. Then in May 2014, i gave AL another shot, and been active ever since.

If STS were to make it so that PL players cannot just jump in and grab a AL Veteran status, add another boolean to the code that checks for whether someone is a veteran or not.
check to make sure their account was created later than November 2, 2012 (meaning that accounts created before that date are disqualified); and have logged in within the last 90 days

Wouldn't that mean that someone who played PL in previous years, and then started AL in November 2012, would be disqualified, since their account was from before? Or are AL accounts actually different than PL accounts? If the latter is fact, the whole concern about people who have switched to AL in the past 90 days is baseless.

I was under the impression that the accounts were different, since plat bought in one game is not useable in another game, but plat bought on one toon in AL is useable by any character on that account.

This is just vanity. It don't add any stats , it don't add any special bonus. It just show how long you play. My friend Aecard got shield, know what? He had wearing it 1 day and he got bored of it lol. Just wait till we get another awesome back vanity available for all and shield...? nobody gonna use it

Initially, G and the rest of STS (this was during the PL, pre-SL time) wanted to make Platinum a cross-game currency. However it had something to do with Apple and its ToS that kept STS from implementing that idea.

Also, my previous message was written really late at night. So the logic was "half-baked" (I think thats what its called..)

but that would be unfair for people who had their account created prior to Nov 2,2012 and started on day 1.

I myself, started SL in 2011, and been playing AL since the day it was release on chrome....

i dont think there's a win win solution for this scenario ...

I just looked through Doc's AL Timeline, found the words "November 2, 2012" and "Release date" then wrote it here.
and again, as I said earlier, that post (and the current post I'm writing) was a half-baked (not very well thought out) post...

...just like the medium cakes that my alts were baking lol

With all due respect STS, can you please make the sheild for Vets look more appealing, maybe a Glow or something.. Its nice and all but..I been playing since the beginning and the Vet sheild look abit plain.. you know..
