Medals haven't been turned off, you just need to spend thousands of attacks in the right way (conquer/abandon) on the closest lvl 1-4 valley to you. Since I've recommended this to my alliance, we have been getting someone promoted to baronet almost on a daily basis without spending any money.
I originally complained a lot about the medal rate and soon came to realize Evony really could care less how many of us don't like it. So, do what I did, spend time farming medals and less time complaining and you'll get your promotion and make your own NPC farms.
