I'll second this. I like the dog tags far better than any of the other suggestions since it maintains the military motif of the other rank insignia. I'd recommend adding two options to the poll: 1) The dog tags. 2) Keep the current icons in place.

This suggestion has more comments than many other threads that are older and supposedly more interesting.

You really are trying very hard aren't you Queen_Herpes?

This topic, however, does not have enough "thrust" to make it as of now. I do encourage you to keep showing your enthusiasm and support, taking this suggestion forward.

Let me get this straight...you added the dog tags, but didn't add the option for keeping the question mark? Gee, you're not biasing the poll at ALL, are you. How dishonest can you get?

I agree with Woodruff. The poll is useless if people aren't permitted to vote to keep the question mark. The question should not be, "If the new recruit icon is changed, what should it be changed to?" A far more meaningful question is, "What icon should be used for new recruits?" There is clearly a lot of opposition to changing it at all, and to fail to acknowledge that severely limits the strength of your suggestion.

Yes Queen, 5 votes is a lot of support for an idea.

Yes, that is what the suggestion is about, yet that does not encompass everything that the poll should entail. And if the poll does not allow for the option of leaving things as they are and in fact REQUIRES that a change be made, then the poll is irrelevant and, quite frankly, dishonest on the face of it.

Man i liked JJ's feather idea,

they are new recruits so they will be light weights (like a feather) unless they are multis, don't give them a icon that is too cool, because that is not fair to those that i stuck with that ugly diamond!

The dog tags would also be a very simple looking icon for the NR's... remember nothing too cool, they would only have them for a short amount of time anyways if they were thinking of playing on CC for a while.

I was referring to before she added Dog Tags. The top runner, only had 5 votes. And my guess is that many people voted twice, so of all the votes that took place, many were doubles.

A priest, a rabbi and a nonreligious person are flying across the Atlantic Ocean, all for different reasons. There is engine trouble, and one of the wings catches fire. The plane starts to go down. Luckily, there are enough parachutes for everyone. Evacuation is orderly.

Implies a new recruit. Though all wear the dog tags, they are most associated with the new recruit going through basic.

It implies no such thing. I associate dogtags with the individual in the middle of battle since THAT'S WHEN THE MILITARY IS REQUIRED TO WEAR THEM.
