ID Lines

It's become an increasing debate - ID Lines. What should and should not be there?

Shadow Academy Courses and Medals have always graced the tail end of the ID Line. Some members have bloated this section to exceed the beginning section of rank, name, order, position, house and clan. Oh yeah - and ACC rank.

Quite a few people - even thouse who admit that they went for every SA course to puposely bloat their ID line to look more impressive than they were - think that the SA course abbreviations need to go. Others still think that medals are pretty pointless there too.

I agree. Your most important information are the first two pieces. Rank and Name. Courses are rather pointless to brag about since a lot of the old ones were nothing more than a copy-paste form with rather simple notes. I don't know if abbreviations are removed if the course is removed automatically, but I'm thinking of people who have their ID lines pasted in places that aren't updated with the DJB site leave in as many as they can.

I did like the idea of a title based on how many you've done - something similar to the ACC ranks would be good. [SA: Scholar] or the like would be better than the alphabet soup people throw on their lines.

I also think that your dossier number should appear in there somewhere. I mean - it's how you get to the important info of medals, history and other junk but it's not on the most widely used method of identification?
