What is this medal next to my name? Look at the symbol, does it have any meaning or value? Does it appear in Halo 4? Whats up with the different colors?
What really puzzles me is that I have about 350 post and I have a medal, but someone (who I just saw) has 1,000 plus post but no medal.
What is going on here?
The medal represents your attendance/activity on the forums during E3 and how often you posted. It’s basically a “thanks for sticking around during the horrible servers” reward.
Thanks. 
First off, I will say this is not Halo 4 related, it would belong in the Halo Waypoint forums.
Secondly, Bowser is correct, I made a thread here with a lot of facts about the medals.

A lot of the information was confirmed by forum moderators.
Since this is off topic to begin with, did they also change the font of the site?

The post font? No, I haven’t noticed any change.
Also just to add, the medal was only awarded to cool people.
But they made an exception for me.
I never get anything nice : C

The font for the threads and forum categories. A couple days ago the font changed and it’s not very appealing to what it used to look like. I guess it’s on my end then. I’ll have to change it.
what I dont understand is how it bumped me down from top 5% to only the top 20% this afternoon

That I don’t understand either… are you sure?!
Makes me wish I hadn’t avoided the forums like the plague at the time…
But I’m happy with my little camera!

The new medal designs are pretty slick…
