Rank System

Create a custom rank system where you can spend money to advance to the next rank. Using the command /ranks you will see a GUI of a list of available ranks. Each rank will have additional rewards then the previous: a set home, particle effects, meebles/skulls, etc.

The names of the ranks are to be determined.

Pros:
-This would be good especially for extreme since a lot of cool aspects of the server were removed from extreme, so there isn't much to work for. (Of course, the rewards for ranking up should be customized to match the "extreme" aspect of the server)

-Gives players something to work for as players will have something to spend their skulls on besides on nations.

 

If I understand this correctly, you meant money = skulls? If so,

Cons:
- The server will further lose the non existent incentive for players to donate.
- Adding perks to a "hardcore" game mode.

 

The ranks could have different perks for each world. Say, if you buy a rank with meebles in Classic you could get an additional set home, currency, etc.But forextreme, they should be changed to match the "hardcore" aspect of the world. For example the perks could help give you plot bonuses, currency, and other perks that wouldn't help make the gamemode "easier".

I don't think we would lose the incentive for players to donate if we just make sure not to put particle effects, /hat, /nv, /dis, color codes on signs, purple/orange chat color as an available perk from the ingame ranks system. We could also add other things that players would be willing to donate for: /nick.

 

Sounds good in theory but let's face it, 95% of people here donated for the perks that would give them advantage over others. Same can be said for the new players if there are any and if there's any useful perks for them.

A lot of people tried this and Meep seems to be quite allergic to change sadly.

 

I think that before adding any new rank, we should fix the ones we currently have and give them the perks that they were purchased for back.

 

We do not feel this fits the current vision of Extreme season 2. Denied.
