What is PlanetSide's veteran value?

[nexea]

I am very interested in PlanetSide but I have a question concerning playing it over a long period of time. I am wondering what kind of veteran value does PlanetSide have in the long run? That is, if every server has its own character statistics, what kind of statistics are global that can be shown off no matter where I go or what I do in the game?

I want to feel like I've gained something after playing this game for 6+ months.. something that doesn't go away or reset every 24 hours like some things in other games. Hopefully you guys know what I mean.. it's like having a level 99999+ character on Everquest meeting a level 1 person for the first time.
