Here is my suggestion for an updated rank system. As of now we have too few ranks and too few ways for members to get involved after they achieve AdvBuilder rank. With this new system you would have more ranks, more commands, and a higher cuboid limit. Generally, it will also be more interesting for guests and low ranks as they know they have more to look forward to in the ranking up system other than the far off 150k block requirement of AdvBuilder. Overall, I think it is a plan with many perks and few draw backs. * GuestRequires: Functioning internet Cuboid limit: N/A * Builder Requires: 5k blocks minimum, a good building design Cuboid limit: 250 New commands: copy, paste, cuboid, line, tp, undo 60 * ArtisanRequires: 20k blocks minimum, good building design, good behavior Cuboid limit: 500 New commands: spheroid, write, tree, undo 120 * DesignerRequires: 50k block minimum, good building designs, trust with OPs Cuboid limit: 1k New commands: replace, paint, rainbow, undo 360, * BlockmasonRequires: 100k blocks minimum, good building designs, trust with OPs Cuboid limit: 1.5k New commands: tnt, gun, stairs, undo 600 * ArchitectRequires: 200k blocks minimum, high quality building designs, trust with OPs and Admins Cuboid limit: 2.5k New commands: slap, kick, mb, portal, * AgentRequires: 500k blocks minimum, superb buildings, extremely high level of trust with OPs and Admins, very selective position Cuboid limit: 5k New commands: tempban * Half-OPRequires: application on forum Cuboid limit: 7.5k New commands: same as current * OperatorRequires: application on forum, good behavior as HOP Cuboid limit: 25k New commands: same as current NEW PERSONAL MAP!!! * Super OPRequires: Determined by Zion and Mapsapper Cuboid limit: 50k New commands: Basically all of them * AdminRequires: Zion or Mapsapper Cuboid limit: 10M New commands: literally all of them *Please note that your rank wouldn't be reset, you would be transferred over to your equivalent rank (Builder = Builder, AdvBuilder = Architect), or higher depending on your block amount. *There would NOT be separate maps for each level. Zion would have to make an executive decision and determine the intervals at which new maps are allowed. EDIT: Shifted around a couple commands. Blockmason now has more than just /tnt

Fixed a few commands that I'd rather not give to users for abuse/security reasons. But other than that, i like it!

I think that says all. I've been wanting to take tempban away from advbuilders because they seem to misuse it. They will only be able to jail people below their rank, so i think it's okay.

I noticed something...
*Artisan Requires: 20k blocks minimum, good building design, good behavior Cuboid limit: 500 New commands: spheroid, text, tree, undo 120
Do you actually mean /text, or /write?
/text writes to a textfile local to the server. /write 'prints' text in world.

Haha yes I did mean /write. As of now, it is a HOP+ command, but I don't really see why. It is a relatively harmless command and I can see it helping a lot of people. I'm going to move around a couple commands because blockmason has only /tnt

Yo I think that this rank system would be great, I disliked the long transition between builder and advbuilder and it also gives more of a chance to see who can really be trusted with powers like temp ban and such. Man I hope this becomes the rank system, I am almost Agent

I do believe that gun was also removed from anyone under agent rank due to abuse but I could be wrong.

Unfortunately, a few architects decided to abuse it and thus got the privilege taken away from the rest of you. Though I'm not arguing against archs losing the /slap command (I don't think archs should have commands the broadcast globally) I do disagree with fixing the system instead of fixing the player. It is similar to removing building rights from guests because some tend to grief (I know some servers do this). By removing the command due to some abuse, its almost a cop-out. Wouldn't a better solution be a demotion of the player that is abusing the command? Clearly if the player abuses a command, then they are not mature enough or have simply not earned the right to use that command. Punishing the many for the mistakes of the few, in my opinion, is always the wrong course of action. P.S. I don't think I would mind a recalibration of the rank requirements (block count-wise). It seems almost too easy to get to the rank of arch, considering that is the highest you can go by simply building, and considering the amount of power archs have. I don't think I would be against raising the block count to 1mil, though 500k is probably more reasonable. Hmm, loads of ideas here, and I'm not sure it shouldn't be a separate topic, but w/e.

If arch's requirements were raised then the OP team would have to balance out all the rest of the requirements to keep it fair. Many of the new players we get (the ones that stay, not the ones who join once) would have to work harder for ranks which would be off putting since most people don't like to work. Also if the OP team don't balance out the other rank requirements there would be so much of a gap between blockmason and architect that most new people will not bother getting architect and either quit or complain therefore losing Hawknet customers.
Granted this is only the opinion of an Agent so you'll have to ask the Op team or Zion himself (asking County would also work).

Alright well. . . this is funny, in a way you wont understand, but Ill just go right ahead now I guess. How about if instead of changing the block reqs, we also recall those other reqs in their, like trust with the op team and good building design. That gets rid of the abuse and makes arch still reachable...dig?

I am thinking of updating the ranks too. New list since this current one is very out of date, and new limits and commands.
Also, I'll rummage through the commands and list all the commands that a rank can use. There are around 100 commands though XD

Well Zion if you're doing it anyway... Agents/Assistants could use a little more power. I'm suggestion give them the freeze/thaw commands so that they can stop griefers from griefing more while they type /tempban. Also it'd be nice if we could undo other people for a small amount of time (determined by the OP team) so get rid of fresh grief. Since Agent/Assistant is a selective position there shouldn't be any abuse of these commands and they would be very useful keeping grief down when there arn't any OP+ on.

That is a point, since we do select Agents and Assistants because we trust them. I wouldnt mind giving them a bit of undoing power. Edit: This would also mean they would hafta have IPBan though, just thought of that, but again we do choose them cause we trust them :

Well it is up to the OP team to decide this with the final say going to Zion, County and Haza.

temp ban is just /tb [name] seconds. Freeze can be easily abused by putting it on someone if they are annoying you. I say just a little bit of undo 10 minutes maybe. I don't agree with agent/assistant having full ban as that could also be used unwisely and then agents and such would need access to the "council chambers" aka the storage closet, budget is low see. Maybe just a tempban of 1 hour or 2. The thing that we have to remember is that agent isn't op or even hop for that matter and shouldn't have a lot of the commands that hop have

I am working on the ability for other ranks to undo others' actions for short amounts of time, around 10 minutes tops.
I'm okay with giving Assistant+ the freeze command. Also, tempban will probably be altered to use the database instead of memory, and we could get tempbans to last days, or weeks then.
All of these require software update, so they could do with further discussion before being final.
It shall remain a public discussion since I'd like the input, not only of Assistants and Agents, but also other members.

As long as it's not too much strain on you I'd love these ideas to be implemented. It would help a lot when there's an Agent/Assistant on and we're waiting for an OP+ to come on from Op-land or Beta or wherever you guys hang out.

I say we we post a sticky topic with the updated ranks and requirements after Zion finishes adding the new and rearranged commands.
Just gives people easy access to rank information and requirements.
