Funny enough I think that's what I said, but with other words. Of high rank, not common active guy.

Again, I'm pointing towards the fact that in two-three years from now you might have a problem with too many seniors - surely not everyone can be of higher rank.

OED also go on to mention older age and more advanced level - which go pretty well with criterias to become a veteran in Entropia.

It would be pointless to create a Senior Member program based only on Longevity, as many of the members who would meet your proposed 80-90% Longevity rating have not visited EF for quite some time, and/or are not very active. In fact, EU has changed so much in the last year or so, that many of those "pre-gold veterans" you mention would probably know much less about the current EntropiaUniverse than those members selected for the Senior Member program.
I'm not asking for it to be based only on longevity and I have never said that. But more on longevity then activity, while still keeping a decent activity rating (for all I care, keep the current activity rating, it's really the longevity I'm bugged about).

Again, this will probably not work as activity vs longevity is as you say "as many of the members who would meet your proposed 80-90% Longevity rating have not visited EF for quite some time, and/or are not very active" - which is why you could keep your current requirements but change the name to suggest that it's a mix of activity and quality.

Whatever, it's your rank. Keep it as you want it.

No, I'm saying that someone who has been active since pre gold (read: over five years) deserve more respect then one who has been around for two years.

Sorry m8 , but this is wrong IMHO ....

There are ppl around who can be THE absolute douches and they are 4-5 years around ... Do they deserve respect just for being around 5 years ?

NO way!

Respect is gained day by day

Thanks for looking it up. Obviously my brain would already qualify me as a senior/EFOF...

So there's just my fingers who I need to use more actively. It's like the mind wants to be active but the fingers are tired. And then there's all the clicking, scrolling, reading, ...
