[b]Gold Stars - Because The ISF Values Resourcefulness Too (As Per Corporate Directive 847.11b (Amended)[/b]

 Following the collapse of the Interplanetary Strategic Arms Limitation Treaty, the ISF have agreed to take on the challenge of promoting responsible weapon use via the new "Gold Star Standard". No longer will the citizens of the galaxy fear the well-intentioned involvement of heavily-armed ISF Members, as the Gold Star Standard ensures that the most dangerous prizes are kept in the most responsible hands/talons/tentacles.

 Interplanetary Space Friends will now earn [i]Gold Star Stickers[/i] for demonstrating their commitment to the principles of safe weapon usage, responsible equipment ownership and ([B]REDACTED[/B]) in five fun-filled categories. Earning [i]ten[/i] stars* in a category grants you access to more exciting prizes in that category. Amassing an arsenal has never been so fun!

 The Five Categories** are:
 [b]Space Ship Adventurer[/b], for demonstrating an aptitude in using space vessels! Set a course for [i]fun[/i] and [i]excitement[/i], Space Ship Adventurer!
 [b]Space Ship Combat Safety[/b], for knowing when not to shoot at other space-faring vessels! Get those broadsides ready and remember to take measures to rescue survivors!
 [b]Rib Trekkie Scout,[/b] for demonstrating an understanding of how to use gear that will let you survive every environment the galaxy can throw at you! Remember, only [i]you[/i]*** can prevent firestorms engulfing entire forest planets!
 [b]Rib Trekkie Friendship Force[/b], for safely and responsibly using weapons in the course of self-defence and furthering the principles of the Interplanetary Space Friends! Don't forget, friends don't let friends waste ammunition!
 [b]Rib Buddy[/b], for ([B]REDACTED[/b]), spreading the word and successfully opening franchises of [i]Henderson's Ribs[/i]. Don't forget to smile at the customers!

 It's not all fun and games though. Members of the Interplanetary Space Friends will learn to fear the [i]Red Scowl Stamp[/i]. Betraying the principles set down in any of the Five Categories will earn one ([i]or more[/i]) Red Scowl Stamps from a manager of Henderson's Ribs. Accrue ten stamps*, and you'll lose one of your hard-earned ranks!

 Cards to track your Gold Star Standard will be made available to all members of the Interplanetary Space Friends via postal service, or by picking up your card at your nearest Henderson's Ribs - [i]Out Of This World Flavour![/i][sup]TM[/sup]
