[Suggestion] Server Join Date

Recently, Intelli restricted some functions of creative to donors and veterans and it got me wondering what my Minerealm anniversary date was. Unfortunately, the Join Date in the forum and the user profile screen only seem to reflect the date that I created a forum account. As is typical for Minecraft newbies on non-whitelisted servers, I was on the game server some time before I felt the need to create a forum account. Would it be possible to to have a join date for the game server in addition to the forum? Maybe even a "vested" date to indicate when you are considered a veteran?

I've always wondered when i joined.

Off topic, but what features? And what is considered a veteran?

World edit and world creation.

Also, someone asked earlier today if they could know their join date, Intelli simply said 'Not happening'... so don't expect this to get far.

I suspect that this information isn't actually recorded, other than "____ joined the game" appearing for the first time in chat logs (if they're kept). Maybe "veteran" status is actually based on forum age?

Nah, I'm pretty sure Intelli actually has a script for determining a players join date... its definitely not forum age, as its only a vague indicator of server age.

I joined the server months before the forums

Same here. Which is why I hope it's not based on forum age...

A person who has been on the server for 1 year or longer.

Nah it's not based on Forum age, I mean, my alt Goldthorn12 is a vet and I don't even have a forum account for him xD.
