    Its popular in the military. Normally would get coined once you completed basic and in your unit. IE presenter would have a coin in his hand and give you a hand shake. Welcoming you to the group.

    They can also be used as a thank you gift.

    It was suggested that coin holders should have a coin symbol in their user title.....something like our Canadian Forces members have with the Maple Leaf.

    Thoughts ?

    Why not? The goal of the coin is to show appreciation, and it's an easy way to show people who are less likely to be asshats to newcomers etc. And then we don't have to come over to this thread to check.

    Special profile pic wouldn't be used too much and look like one poster on first scroll. And if it's a posters colour, some named might be getting out as a rainbow to cover all the colours they would qualify to have up there anyways

    I wasn't looking for credit Den, just ribbin ya a bit...cuz that's what we do...

    to the other....

    I highly doubt there would be any "elitism" to worry about.

    coin # is inconsequential really. Anyone that notices the little coin could be directed to the ongoing thread. Would give other members something to shoot for if they so desire...

    I was thinking that it would make it easier to know how many drinks in a round
