OriVerda Posted June 21, 2018 Share Posted June 21, 2018 I'm proud of being a Founder, I'm happy with what I've received from DE even if it isn't something that will win me fights against level 100+ enemies. I wouldn't reverse my purchase for anything. But sometimes, well, a lot of times, I wish I could hide it from my profile. Sometimes it's a badge of honour, most times it's the mark of Cain.

16Bitman Posted June 21, 2018 Share Posted June 21, 2018 If you wish to hide it, why don't you change your glyph? I doubt many people will randomly check out your /profile in the game, but they will quickly see your glyph in the team health UI. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Entharias Posted June 21, 2018 Share Posted June 21, 2018 Honestly, you should wear it as a badge of honor, people that insult you for that, are just ungrateful jealous babies, don't mind them. And remember, thanks for making this game possible! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lanadra Posted June 21, 2018 Share Posted June 21, 2018 (edited) Yeeeah, with that glyph you're not exactly making an effort to hide it. Also, it's nothing to be ashamed of if you're not being a $&*^ about what you have that others don't, ergo, if you're not being a garbage person, you've got nothing to be ashamed of. At that point, just let it glide off and write it up as someone being triggered and jealous. Edited June 21, 2018 by Lanadra Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't be afraid of the trolls who can't respect what you did for this game. Founders are the only reason this game ever took off and succeeded the way that it has, so from me at least thank you for taking the risk on a crazy fledgling game that I now get to enjoy every day. And anybody who doesn't like your well-earned status, forget them. Edited June 21, 2018 by Lannen Typo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Katinka Posted June 21, 2018 Share Posted June 21, 2018 Funny you should mention that... I was saying pretty much the same in another thread recently: " Even in threads completely unrelated to Excalibur Prime I've been insulted and had my opinion undermined purely because I'm a Founder. I wish I could switch off that badge on my profile icon so people wouldn't know, which is a sad thing because that badge is not something I should be ashamed of or want to hide from the rest of the community, yet it's used as a reason to attack me."

tprx Posted June 21, 2018 Share Posted June 21, 2018 (edited) Why not make an alt account and use it on the forums? DE employees do it for obvious reasons, why shouldn't you? And since it won't interfere with your main account in any way (you won't play it), it's not against the EULA :) Edited June 21, 2018 by tprx Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also, don't be ashamed of being a founder. As long as you don't flaunt it in everyone's face, I don't see why you shouldn't be proud of having supported the game way back when. Haters will be haters. Don't let them get to you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
raz143 Posted June 21, 2018 Share Posted June 21, 2018 I do feel bad for some of the founders. DE certainly hold y'all in high regard, but a vocal minority come onto the forums with petty complaints and tout their founder status as if it makes them better than everyone else and ruin the community's perception of founders.

If someone looks at your profile, nothing. As they'll see your badge. In game, upon entering a game in progress or joining a squad before a match, not seeing that Excal Prime glyph will prevent someone from immediately becoming triggered. And while I can't speak for others, I don't look at people's profiles every time I enter a squad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oreades Posted June 21, 2018 Share Posted June 21, 2018 Honestly unless someone starts their post with essentially "I'm a founder and" or "something something because I'm a founder" ..... I'm not going to take any more notice of the little founder badge than I am going to take notice of what frame someone was playing in a random PUG game.

FillyRarity Posted June 21, 2018 Share Posted June 21, 2018 A founder's badge tells you the player is an old one and spent some money on the game. Anyone who looks deeper into it than that isn't worth the time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Goodwill Posted June 21, 2018 Share Posted June 21, 2018 It doesn't matter if you are a Founder or not. Some people are just disrespectful and uncivil regardless of your status. Hiding it isn't gonna make those people all of a sudden well-behaved. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It seems like bashing Founders just for being Founders would qualify as Bullying under the Forum guidelines but I have never heard of it being enforced as such. 18 minutes ago, Lanadra said: If someone looks at your profile, nothing.

Another person's pre-conceived notions are their problem... If a profile pic on loading is enough to "trigger" someone into being abusive, they were an abusive player to begin with just looking for someone to be abusive to. Basically, imo, you just bullied the OP into changing their profile pic...Congratulations.

Thanks for the update @OriVerda I honestly think you are right, who the hell cares if they get triggered or not, if you let pixels on a screen bother you that much then that's there problem.
