I will be making it my task to be the first to receive the Diplomatic Incident medal.
And hull tanking? 
Judging by the screen, it looks like corps can create their own medals...if so, I'm totally awarding myself the "Made of Win and/or Awesome" badge

Already had a look - unfortunately apart from hull tanking there isn't much hilarity, although there is some wise eve-wisdom to be found for newbies

It looks like a lot of work went into this, but I don't see the value of these features. They don't do anything.
The decorations are fluff, true
The certificates are definitely helpful for new players - they not only provide a decent training path for new players right out of the tutorial, they offer recommendations on skills required for basic ship operation, basic tips on module and skill usage, training paths to specialize in certain module operations, blah dee blah.
And, really, they might've taken some work to put in, but I'm betting it was no more than the advanced tutorials and mission lines added for new players.

They don't mess with game "balance" (Sorry, cannot say that with straight face) .. they are just for "fluff" or "reputation-grind" and the biggest role is ISK-sink.

Unless it ramps up with each additional medal, I'm not really worried - 25m is chump change. And even if it does, it's a fluff thing anyhow, so who cares?

must all games have achievements now? XBOX LIVE! WHAT HAVE YOU STARTED!
but anyway, this could be *really* good for corps and alliances.
and... the diplomatic incident? .. 'successfully killed the CEO of a friendly corporation."
successfully killed? how can you unsuccessfully kill someone? either they're dead and you succeeded, or they're alive and you failed. it's binary.
Oh, nevermind

About medals i have questions :
- does it will be possible to refuse medals (to avoid being griefed with medals like "medals for being a tard" or "medal of the greatest noob of jita" or such ^^)
-does it will be possible to have medals at alliance level or only at corpo level
-if alliance / corpo dismiss does the medals remains ?
-will it be possible to throw out medals afterward to avoid that
You can delete and remove medals you don't want, as well as hide any medals you have from public viewing (they're hidden by default)
Also, each medal awarded costs a million isk, so its not like you can be spammed to death with terrible medals without it costing some money
You can only give medals to your corporationmates from what I've seen but I don't have alliance-level permissions

when you are awarded a medal, it is set to private by default (meaning only you can see it) and you have the option to trash it if you want or make it public if you want to show it off.
will it be possible to have medals at alliance level or only at corp level
for corps for now, the intention is for medals to be a corp tool but in the future we may look at extending their use to the alliance level.
if alliance / corp dismiss does the medals remains ?
yes, medals you have been previously awarded stay with you regardless of changing corps.
will it be possible to throw out medals afterward to avoid that
see first answer (yes you can)
a blog is forthcoming on certificates and should be out soon.
Chronotis stole my thunder

Well done turning this into a mud fight, do you want this topic to exist or be closed, because from now this can go either way.
It can't go either way. You've been owned so hard by Chaos (who has no face, no less) that it is impossible for you to recover any dignity that you may have allegedly had at some point in the past.
^5s Chaos btw.
I lol'd hard IRL - touche, sir. Touche.

besides.. racial hammers? for people who are actively hunting you this would be a problem I suppose... but if you're just running into someone by accident and they're in a mood to attack you, then it could act as a deterrent.
then again, you'll be completely free to not display your certifications, so what are you complaining about?
I was wondering where the post you responded to was because I was going to reply and destroy it, but I see you did a wonderful job of it already
I'd also point out that there aren't really any ship-specific certificates (Ie, there's no uber-raven-pilot cert), so its not like even if they were visible that they could say "Hey, he's going to be in a cerberus with <insert mods here>".
Instead, they can just guess based on your displayed certificates - and if people do try to predict your ships you can fake them out by displaying minmatar spec'd certs and flying a Falcon or something. This is not difficult.
