In Game Sail/Title For Pioneers

I'd vote yes but not now. Because right now there are more important things for Rare to do. Maybe ask again in 6 months or so.

I personally vote no, as I think it would not only devalue the status of Pioneer into something people pursue to get the sails (which would likely result in more low effort posts and feedback, as people have many misconceptions as to what they look for in new pioneers), but I also think it isn't necessary. I think the ability to test features that aren't out yet is quite enough, and a Pioneer should care enough about the game to invest the time and effort into testing without rewards.

It's also not something people can sign up for, unlike the Founders sails and title. There was an opportunity for everyone to sign up for those. Rare sails and deckhand sails are a bit of a special case, because (obviously) working for Rare should have some in game perk, and deckhands do a very thankless job that puts them in the crosshairs for abusive behavior for free. They deserve the sails more than us Pioneers, I think.

Of course, I wouldn't say no to some exclusive items, but generally feel the game is better off only providing cosmetic options that are attainable by everyone.
