Hi,
I have a question which hopefully someone may be able to answer. If, like me, you find this subject to be a bit strange then maybe this could be discussed at a higher level to consider the position of SWAT.
Firstly, if I was to buy a completed set of armour from someone on here who has passed SWAT then I have to resubmit to achieve SWAT status. I completely agree with this as requirements change plus for the individual, it will give a true sense of achievement.
However, if I was already SWAT and sold my armour, is it correct that I will always keep the SWAT 'badge'. This, in my opinion, is wrong. If for example, I built a new set of armour, had it cleared by 501st yet it was nowhere near SWAT due to inaccurate parts or weathering etc, how could I be allowed to be considered SWAT still?
When a costume is retired by one owner, surely the SWAT badge associated with that armour and owner should disappear pending new submissions.
I appreciate any other thoughts, comments, opinions etc on this.
Cheers guys and girls
