I think that we should create different types of Veteran statuses, each with it's own unique requirements.

For example:

a) FFR Game Veteran - Achieve a Grandtotal Score of at least 10 Billion, have at least 10,000 games played, have at least 75% of songs FC'd, and 50% of songs AAA'd.

b) FFR Forum Veteran - Have at least 1,500 Forum Posts and at least 250 +1's to your posts (combinable, and I'll explain this later).

c) FFR Site Veteran - Be a member of FFR for at least Five Years, and have Forum Veteran and Game Veteran Status (Replaces both with this.)

d) FFR Elite Supporter - Be credited for at least 3(maybe 5?) different ideas to update the site that were achieved OR be credited for appearing at an FFR Meetup, and have FFR Site Veteran status (Replaces)

What I wrote in Forum Veteran about +1'ing posts, was another idea of mine. To eliminate some postwhoring, I thought we could include a "Was this post helpful/relevant to the thread?" With a "Yes or No" option. This yes or no option would be available only to members approved members (approved by possible application sent to moderator's or people approved to check over them?), to avoid people hoarding the +1 option or using alts to up their count.

I think the req's you stated for Game Veteran is a little bit high, especially for some people who may have been playing for years and still aren't good enough to AAA 50% of the songs, that's currently over 500, and the same for FC's, being a D4 player and still don't have near 500, nor do I have 10bil yet.
The different types of veteran's seems like a good idea to me, but it should also be able to work for lower tier players as well.
