Whatever is decided will be fine by me.  As far as suggestions, I would go a bit farther and suggest a mixture.  Roll the perks over, keep the achievements and stars, and for the next version add ribbons or rank for achievements earned there. 

It is a good thing, in my opinion, to be able to recognize veteran players through ordinary chat channels or rosters.  I guess, for those that horribly disagree, possibly a new option to turn off their own viewing of stars, etc.  (toggle icons type of deal).

I dunno Greebo I get the feeling HT doesn't listen to what the minority of players want. <snip>
I see it differently.  I think he does listen, he also has a good grip on game dynamics and can think past the little box most people operate in. 

I can't count the times people have said "X is ruining the game, we should do Y", and HTC has come back and said "we did that before, and it didn't work as you thought it would" (or words to that effect).  :cheers:

My memory is a little fuzzy on the AHI to AHII transition but I think
all perks were lost  :old:

I do not believe there were perks at the AHI to AHII transitions?

I would not even consider resetting perks or achievements.

IMHO it actually wouldn't matter much. Those who have lots of perks can soon get enough of them to get their perk rides. Those who don't would only get their perk ride pushed a little further in the future. The only ones who would really suffer are those who are just a couple of points away from their first perk ride.

That is a bit of relief but i was willing to start at zero again since everyone else would be in the same boat.

I have to agree with Chilli at this point.   :old:
