As an Alpha player, I am disappointed to see that people think they are veterans because that have loads of spare time. Its what you do in the community that makes you a veteran. Low levels need help with VoG? Help them. Your friend needs help getting a bounty done? Be a friend and offer your help. Veterans are supposed to be mentors, offering guidance and support to others that need it. They do the deed and don't expect a reward. Not some kid who seeks attention because they want to feel special. I don't consider myself a veteran because I was there at the Alpha, or I am a Day One player, I consider myself a Veteran because I offer my knowledge of the game and its mechanics to those who need it.
