It's a bit shallow of you to think this even matters to anyone.
I joined on the first week on release - December 21st 2009 - and so my account was lost and I had to reindentify. I'm not going to sit here and waste my time explaining to you, even though I could.

Would be a pointless addition to the game; provides no benefit to gameplay at all and like Milo said it would open the door to discrimination against new players
