DtK Hall Of Fame established

[[DtK] [C] Squall]

Dear DtK Community,

It has been an year since we transitioned to CS:GO. Since transitioning some of our servers have done extremely well (one reaching Top 3 Aus Server rankings, two frequently appearing in Top 10 and Top 15 rankings) and some are still trying to make their mark. It hasn't been an easy process however with the help of players and admins - Dying2Kill Community now has good footing in both the CS:S and CS:GO scene.

The success of a community or server can rarely be attributed to a single person but there are sometimes people who go above and beyond, putting in time and effort for the betterment of the community and servers. To show our appreciation and acknowledgment of such people, the DtK Hall of Fame has been established.

The aim of DtK Hall of Fame is to recognise and reward players/members who have shown exceptional support and dedication to the community and it's servers. Such players would continually exhibit a combination of the following examples but not limited to:

a. Promoting the community/server(s) in a positive manner
b. Taking the initiative to help get the servers populated
c. Providing valuable feedback and suggestions.
d. Being helpful on the forums/servers. E.g helping out newcomers.
e. Contributing via content (maps,models,etc)


Who can get inducted into DtK Hall of Fame ?
Anyone can. Members or non-members as long as you have a good history on DtK.

How does a person get inducted into DtK Hall of Fame ?

There are two types of inductions.

a. Server Based: Each server will setup a committee to discuss players who have proven themselves worthy on the server. If requirements are met, the player will then be inducted into the Server's Hall of Fame. (each server will have it's own Hall of Fame)

b. Community Based: Inductions are based on community efforts instead of server. Any example of this would be players who represent DtK in an external Tournament and win. All players in this case would be inducted into DtK Hall of Fame


What are the rewards for getting inducted into DtK Hall of Fame ?

A person who has been inducted into DtK Hall of Fame will get the following:


Global Rewards:
1. Forum custom rank image
2. A month's access to DtK CSS and CS:GO Store
3. More to come

Server Specific Rewards:
1. Increased DtK Token rate (4x)
2. Server specific perks - e.g Hall of Famers exclusive skins,trails,etc Please note each server will have it's different sets of rewards due to server mechanics.
3. More to come


When are inductions done?
There is no schedule, can be done every week or every few days, however inductions will be done in batches. Expect the 1st set of server inductions over the next few days.

Great idea. Good way for the right people to get recognition. Will there be voting on each nomination or is it at staff/councils digression?

[[DtK] [Jedi] Tyler]

Can there possibly be a way for other members to nominate people?

There will be a way to bring attention to yourself or another player. However keep in mind, people will be getting inducted based on merit and not votes, best way for someone to be noticed is via their actions on the servers or the community. The intent of Hall of Fame is not to reward someone's cumulative contributions over the years, we already have a system in place for that, Hall of Fame is targeted at players who are putting in the effort currently or in the recent past.

That makes sense

Can it be based on history?

Squall just said its not a history based recognition:
" The intent of Hall of Fame is not to reward someone's cumulative contributions over the years, we already have a system in place for that, Hall of Fame is targeted at players who are putting in the effort currently or in the recent past.."

I like this since it encourages newer people to help, rather than leaving it to the more popular and well known people who have previously done stuff in the past.

Hall of fame sounds very long term. Like the hall of fame in sports is for the best of the best who have proven themselves over their career.

Like Squall said though, we already have ways of honoring long time contributions (e.g. the Jedi and Life Member ranks). This seems like more of a way of recognizing newer players who are doing there part on the servers.

Yeah I understand that. Was just commenting that the name suggests otherwise.

Good program though.
