Two Suggestions.
First, I'm a bit surprised there are no clan-related ribbons. A few clan ribbon ideas of mine: a ribbon for donating a certain amount to your clan (encourages financially supporting your clan), a ribbon for being in a clan for a certain amount of time (discourages clan-hopping), and a ribbon for getting a certain amount of clan points (encourages clan activity). Second (and this is a bit more of a nooby suggestion IMHO), I'd love it if there was a method of permanently obtaining the XM1014-A. It's my favorite shotgun, and it's a shame you can't own it permanently. I think it'd make a good coupon exchange gun, personally.

My thoughts exactly. Plus, I feel like my three ribbon ideas all would motivate players to support their clans more than they already do; in addition, they would reward clan members who already work hard supporting their clan (like many of my clan's members).

A free of hacker clan honor ribbon -- for a clan never has any member banned as hacker/glitcher.
A hacker hater clan ribbon -- for a clan whose members report lots of hackers. -
@Arch: I don't really like that idea a whole lot.... Maybe if the limit was 3-5 different cheaters that got caught... I'm only saying this because one of my clannies never cheated in his life but he got banned... Also, some ppl might get their accounts stolen and the stealer uses all sorts of hacking. I like the hacker hater clan ribbon... Although, it might make ppl to make false clans to get those ribbons. So maybe a clan of maybe 5 or more would be valid for the ribbon.

I know there will be exceptions. Your clan mate should ask for a ticket for review to get the account and ribbon back. For others, I would say a clan can lost it free of hacker ribbon for 1 months time, then if there is no more hacker banned from the clan, the clan will regain the ribbon. The clan can also get rewarded by kicking and reporting its member hacking.
Remember that z8 only need to punish the clan when a member is banned as a hacker, and once banned, the clan's maximal number of player will be reduced by one. If a clan constantly has member being banned, it is natural that they can not get the ribbon. And legit player might consider to fix their recruiting procedure, or join another clan. If a clan want to exist, it either be careful with recruiting and strict its rule, or just pay more zp to keep it going (The position wasted by the hackers has to be bought back).
The main concept behind the idea is to encourage the community to fight hackers.
And z8 should consider to add more ribbon to distinguish the honorable:
no hacking and no glitch to kill others is fair play
no insulting and qq should be respectful
no account credit problem should be something else
And when your friends have their account hacked, please ask them don't use any add-on, scan the system with antispyware, and don't try to play in cafe. Like some other suggested, the hacking program might probably go with keylogger. Imagine their purpose to be free ---- they either want to ruin one game to let the player to go to the other game (someone paid them to do so maybe), or they want to do advertisement (hard to believe someone will sponse), or they do some secret to gain access to local information. So having a game account hacked is just a lucky thing. -

Well it's not that big of a problem anymore anyways... He had tried the tickets and to no aviel.. He's quitting the game for sure anyways so he won't even be in the clan which means that the clan should be able to still obtain the ribbon.
I agree there should be more ribbons that will make the community attack the hackers instead of the other-way around. Like for the HM ribbon... I saw about 10 different hackers cheating their way for the ribbon. I believe that they shouldn't just lose their honorable soldier but to also lose the HM ribbon... However, they claim that it's a perma-ban IF the report is legit... So I'm still waiting to see them banned permanently...
That should be a "secret" ribbon. Title it "random accomplishment ribbon". And for description, "An accomplishment that the individual player made to make CF a better game". Which in all reality would only be known by those who had successfully reported a hacker or a handful of cheaters. -

Agreed on this idea, but we need to polish it, otherwise, everyone who want to get the ribbon will report, and the support team will be busy reviewing the reports, there might be many that have no significant clue to prove a hacker, in this case, z8 can only think the report is wrong. And to work with lots of such report would be painful. -
Semi-bump.
Eh, I'm not too keen on the hack-related clan ribbons. We've had dedicated, well-loved members in our clan get banned for glitching/hacking in the past. We didn't know at the time of their recruitment that they were cheaters. The only ribbon awarded to an entire clan I think I'd truly support is one for breaking a certain clan rank (300 or 200, maybe?), but even that would be somewhat flawed, as farming clans currently hold several positions in the top 10. -

I like your idea. I willn't kill you now! -
Clan Ribbons are always going to be flawed because of "Fake clans" but it's the same problem with 100k kills and a 2.0 kdr and since z8games released those 2 ribbons at different dates, you can expect a few unsatisfied customers are gonna farm at some point.
I personally want accomplishment ribbons that cannot be taken away. Like the hero mode ribbon or the ribbon I am trying to obtain, the "iron man" ribbon.
All n all, a 300 clan points ribbon would be decent. Not really easy to obtain since I'm gonna be switching clans but it's still achieveable at any rate. -

i was happy reading this until you mentions the shotty being in the coupon exchange area, no way! it doesnt even need to be perm, just do missions and thats why its there. putting it in the coupon area would be a waste, even though they do need more idems in the coupons -

Why shouldn't it be perm? Do you not like it, or do you think it's too OP? Besides, I'm suggesting they replace a current coupon item with it (do we really need 2 permanent or temp. axes or 3 temp. MP5-Advs.?). -
Agree with you they could add the XM1014-Adv (or maybe Anaconda-Adv?) for 50 coupons and another gun for 70 coupons (a MG reskin, Kriss... dunno)
I'd like to see the Kriss back in the coupon exchange. Hell, I'd like to see an overall coupon exchange update. We've had the same prizes in there since I started playing in August.
