Kelly,
Good idea but I think you need an all of the above option. To get in the hall of fame you need to excell in several if not all categories. Just my opinion.

Everything you mentioned with the exception of creating gear. Bonus points to them if they did though.
The poll is set up where you can pick as many options as you want,so all of the above is 7 mouse clicks awayQuote:

Yes, I try to remain modest. It is difficult, but I do try. :smt102Quote:

I think this is a status that should be awarded after retirement.
