Yes, give Alpha and Beta testerse MORE bragging rights and divide the community more? Sounds like a GREAT idea!
ok, the alpha's and beta's shouldn't get anything special at this point
---tho perhaps in the future a thank you something for all alpha/beta's and a smaller something for all the great players that have joined since 1.0 came out [a new badge.. the v1.0 badge anyone, perhaps when v2.0 is a reality and the devs are advertizing]
It's actually not a bad idea to give long-term customers something unique and different as a thank you for thier support, not neccesarily something better, just something different (a special paint "texture/color" (camo anyone?) that only they can use maybe.
On the other hand people who PRE-ORDERED the game when 1.0 came out were offered an in-game benefit for thier purchase. (me, i don't care about any particular perk, but some people would like to see it just because the devs said there would be something)
oh, and zam... stop trolling :P

Something to reward long-term players would be great. Making it only for ABs is NOT.
Anyone can earn the former, while only the select few who knew about VO in AB form could get the latter, which is incredibly unfair, as I'm sure I'm not the only person who wishes really badly that he were an AB.

How about at 5000 player kills.
This rewards everyone except those pansy traders :)

I think the forums should have a special translator feature, so that everyone can read posts as if they were written in actual English! It took me a few times through that last post.
I think alpha and beta testers should get a special AB-only forums, where they can sit around and reminiscence about good old times.
'reminisce'.
Other than that, it would be fun to have cosmetic changes that only certain players could access. The argument that it would be 'so unfair' to people who discovered the game at a later point in time doesn't really work here. However, the special features should not give any real advantage in battle, and there should be more than just those for having joined then and then (and I'm not talking about badges).
Maybe the Spellcast's 'camo' idea wouldn't be so bad. Perhaps areas on the ships' hulls where certain colours/textures could be applied (nose/cockpit: number of kills, wings: A/B/1.0/2.0 player, fuselage: trading success... these are just suggestions).

I think Alpha players should each get $1000 and Beta Players $500 from Guild when the game makes it's first $1000000.
To everyone else, I say: Where were YOU when times were tough?!

Knock off the rewards talk and play.
