I don't know what weak simple-minded school raised the OP but in the real world you don't get a prize for anything you do. No participation awards, no good try medals. Do something cool or original or exciting. This is what makes EVE great, it doesn't reward the mindless grinders who want a free handout for mindless repetition, EVE rewards the innovative and creative.


Well, you get bonuses, watches, little statues, plaque's, depends on line of work.

Ummm... no?


You get faction ships for free when you have FACTION standing at 10.0 from the cosmos agents. The navy is just a corp. Straight

Not even for free, for sacrifice... people who recive faction battleships bpc for standing work hard to get it. but 9.90 is easy job, 10.00 is true hardcore.

After quite a few yeas of grinding missions for these bums they can't even be bothered to say "Way to go" or "Good Job" I was hoping they would send over a plaque or at least a Caldari Navy ashtray for my Captain's quarters. Would some prostitutes and a case of Quafe be to much to ask for?

Disappointed as usual, welcome to EVE :(

shouldn't have picked the navy, man -.-

Kaalakiota: Title at exalted, upgradeable ring available at friendly, crafting patterns.
Hyasyoda: You can get a special quest chain at friendly, leading to [Hyasyoda Mobile Laboratory]
Lai Dai: Several rewards including War Hippogryph mount.
Nugoeihuvi: Several rewards including a fishing pole that allows underwater breathing.

you can also unlock the achievement [Ambassador of the State] when exalted with all Caldari megacorps.

i just locked an open door.. strange, yet symbolically compelling.

Well Done OP.

Can I ask what you have done with the billions upon bilions of ISK you have slowly built up?

You haven't lost a single ship according to Battleclinic, nor killed one.

You must be fekkin minted.

Send me some isk and I'll spend it.

Probably spent it all, pimping out his Tengu, with officer mods, and faction ammo.

Pay no attention to the haters Hevymetal, you're absolutely right EVE should provide some kind of recognition for stuff like that. I noticed under each character's information is a decorations tab, perhaps some kind of medal there would work.

Why should we reward someone for grinding standings for a NPC corp/faction?

Because everyone plays EVE differently and who is anyone to say someone shouldn't be recognized for the time and effort they put into something, even if it is just a decoration in their information.

I bet you want a medal for undocking next, how bout a pat on the head and Aura telling you "Good job" for killing that frigate rat?

This is Eve, nobody is going to throw confetti in the air and toot horns, just because you think you did something extraordinary. Seeking validation from NPCs is just sad.



I think this guy needs a hug. In my experience, people who are desperate to put others down do so because they themselves have been treated badly and will only ever be able to see the world in terms of bitterness.

I don't pve, but surely there should be at least a medal or something. OP's post is deemed legitimate.

Well, yeah. Seems to me that CCP is missing a trick by not having the "CEO" of the NPC corp send out a congratulatory email to you or something similar that would cost them next to nothing but give twisted obsessives like us the kind of reinforcement we crave.

I'm curious: how many hours of playtime would you say went to that 10?
