    Red face Random Acts of Kindness (AOK)


     




    The random "Act of Kindness" (AOK) is a 'Thank You" system driven by the community, for other gamers of the STS gaming franchise including PL,SL and DL and the forums. Players will be nominated by "you" and given awards (Intangible awards shown below) in order to recognize their random acts of kindness throughout the game. As there are many individuals in-game who do not get credit for their good deeds, this will serve as a way to commend their names through the forums. If you have ever seen someone who deserves credit, or wanted to thank someone but didn't know how, this is your chance. Nominate their names!


    "A random act of kindness is a selfless act performed by a person or people wishing to either assist or cheer up an individual person or people."


    AOK's main purpose is to serve as a way to bring together a community of individuals who are constantly helping one another. May it be through small ways or guidance/mentoring etc, without asking for anything in return. These individuals usually do not get recognition for their actions. This will be for everyone in the community, from lvl 10's- end game levels, and from every STS game including the forums: Star Legends, Pocket Legends and Dark Legends. This will not be a "premium" group/ so anyone can be nominated.
    Please read through the guidelines below thoroughly on how to nominate someone.


    Currently the only recognition offered is having their names listed on the Random "AOK" thread here (individuals with multiple nominations will have an icon next to their listed names ). I have also created a Signature icon and a AOK icon as a reward (It can be added on next to/onto your signature or can replace it). There are also recognition rewards for multiple nominations. I'll be planning on making more icons for the different games, RedRyder has also offered to help make awards.




    I understand that many in-game players may not be as active/do not know about the forums.
    Non-Forumers are still eligible to be nominated for AOK, if you wish to, you may tell the nominee
    in-game that they have been listed in our AOK thread. Starting slowly is good for this thread,
    spread the word and let this system grow



    • To nominate someone, send a PM to the AOK Team (JaytB RedRyder Robert7204 Apollo)
    • Nominations for any 'act of kindness' not listed can still be sent, the AOK team will check their eligibility
    • Nomination PM's should go as shown: (Title as "AOK Nomination)
      -IGN (In game name) of person being nominated
      -PL/SL/DL/Forums
      -Reason
      -Proof (screenshots <- optional)
    • You may inform the nominee (after he/she has done a good deed), that you will nominate them here.
    • If you are a spectator to an AOK by another person, you may nominate them as well.
    • This is not a T.V. show, please, no dramas
    • Please do not ask to be nominated or nominate yourself
    • Individuals can be nominated more than once
    • Lets keep the chat at a minimum on this thread and keep it for congratulations
    • Do not inform ones you have helped about AOK (that defeats the purpose)
    • When nominating, use their Forum Account name, if they don't/you don't know, use their main.





    What qualifies as an AOK:
    • Random gifting items that are useful to the reciever (or who are in need of the item) and has not asked for the item.
    • Guiding others through different maps/or guiding them as they level up
    • Helping someone with real life issues
    • Guiding others through with quests
    • Giving credits/gold to people in need (not to beggars in townes)
    • Giving vital/important information to strangers/newbies to the game
    • Guiding someone in PvP without them asking for help
    • Assisting someone in PvP who have less people in their team (or are losing)
    • Guilds that go out of their way to help others (Only AOK founders/team may nominate guilds)



    What does not qualify as an AOK:
    • Nominating yourself/alts
    • Anything that is not a "RANDOM" act will not qualify
    • Guiding/helping others because they asked you to
    • Returning gifts/items previously given to you by the reciever
    • Informing ones you have helped about AOK recognition rewards





    (To send a PM, click one of the AOK Team Member's name below in the "AOK Team section" and select Private Message)
    • On the title, put the nominee's in-game username
    • Follow the template on the guide line:
      IGN (In game name) of person being nominated
      PL/SL/DL/Forums
      Reason
      Proof (screenshot<-optional)
    • After you send in the nomination, the AOK team will check their eligibility
    • If they are successful, they will send a PM to the nominee and add them to the list.
    • Names can still be listed even if they may not have a forum account





    If you would like to create an award (intangible rewards e.g) signatures/logos/banners/stickers) send me a PM with the image and a description, creators will get credit for their work.*

    -Please do not use the images listed here for anything other than AOK or without prior consent from the artists. If you would like to use the images, please send the AOK Team a PM and we will ask the artists if they will allow it. Only listed nominees may be able to use them on their signatures.
    There will be AOK fans/supporters icons coming out soon which anyone can use freely. The images/artwork are all owned by the artists and used by AOK with their permission.

    I'd like to thank everyone in the AOK list for their acts of kindness, may it be helping out a friend when he/she is having a hard time, or helping out the new players by gifting them items they need or may need. (Just think how they might have felt when they randomly see "xxxx gave you xxxx") It not only shows what an awesome person you are, but the community in general. I remember when I received a lvl 14 pink forest leather from Haikus when I was still new to the game (it helped me pimp out my town outfit, I still have it in my stash!), that was probably what made me come back to the game every time, the fact that people were so willing to help me out, in any form of way .
    Your actions impact the ones you have helped, and in return they may one day pay back that favour by helping out another person.
    I have always felt that a community was what made a game so great (yeah graphics and all that fancy stuff are eye catching
    but at the end of the day, I'd want a group of mates to go around doing runs/farming/leveling).

    So yes, thank you. you my friends, are all awesomesauce.

    This is cool and all, but most people that I talk to don't visit the forums. I'd like to join this thing, but it's hard for people to get credit for stuff without people saying anything on here.

    We won't be posting up the reasons why they have been nominated up here. I doubt they would be attacked by beggars since doing an AOK
    doesn't necessarily mean handing out gold or items. Plus, there is still the mute button

    Almost done with this piece I've been working on, then I'll get to the avatars I'll be doing the elite set bear pixelated for the PL version. I'll do a DL one when I figure out what to use. Ideas are welcome

    Awesome. Actually, if you could sketch them out and I could refine them, that'd be great.
