I think the whole scheme should be scrapped so we can see who gives a crap about titles. Lol

Honestly, I see some AoA's talking trash in PvP and bullying the newbies. I'm not sure if that's the type of community you wanted to promote (well, a few AoAs).
@Urqui
I've been in the AoA too. It's changed now from what it used to be before. Now, the definition of AoA is something completely different, not to mention the image. Have you seen the application forums? Have you seen who gets in? It is whoever warms up to Airrie and the other community the most. The community self promoted itself with and without the AoA and it will continue to. Remember when there wasn't the AoA?
Want me to prove it to you? I actually have before when Pandar was head of the AoA. It's quite easy for people with the wrong intentions to worm their way into the AoA. The second generation of AoAs has shown that.
These positions give people the "god-complex". I'm speaking from personal experience. It goes to your head, changes why you do things and how you behave. I can show you some clear examples if I need to, quote by quote.
P.S: We've met 3 times.

Sorry for the double post but I must address this statement.
They will never scrap this thing. If they do, then they'll start it again with a different name. The purpose of AoA is not to help people. It never was. The purpose is so that the developers can boast things that look good on paper. They can say things like, "We have given GoA awards to valued players. We have an AoA program to help new players. We have a friendly community which the devs interact with!" Etc. etc. It's all about StS looking good.
Edit- btw, this isn't necessarily a bad thing, but when you see AoA and think, "They aren't doing anything." This is why. They don't need to. For their purpose to be fulfilled, all they have to do is exist.

AoA was and is still an unnecessary program.
STS, Instead of developing this kind of unnecessary program, why not just develop a charity program? Not a one-time program but all year round charity program...people that's in that guild will think of ways to earn money and donate it to poor children? That's doable, I was in one guild in World of Warcraft where our guild leader would hold live streaming videos (you probably heard about this guy he's quite popular if you're a WoW player) and he somehow earned money from it (maybe from his sponsors etc. I dunno, I'm not familiar with that kind of business) the more people view it...he donated the money to poor African kids and he would literally (physically) go to the charity houses and make videos of how he gave money to them as proof that all our efforts are really going there. Now that's something remarkable, isn't it? Now compare that to this program...SMH...we did that as players without Blizzard, just a bunch of guys who got bored playing WoW one day and decided to make more out of it...imagine what this program could do with your backing...so much potential wasted...players and devs can collaborate on greater things than welcoming players and planning parties...
