I briefly read through this, there is a lot of debate about this and things people are missing. The main points I can think of is:
1. Skye is right, it doesnt matter about vT donation, Yes they may have not used their own money but despite this, if you are going to be immature, that reflects on you as a player not a rank.
2. If a new rank was implemented and you were "serious" about be respected you wouldnt care for anything extra like a builders stick or anything, you would be glad that innectis as a whole respects you.
3. Many Goldies "think" they deserve a new rank because to many "immature" people have the goldie rank and have bought it down to a low level. I disagree just because lots of people have a rank doesnt mean its any less of a rank. AGAIN it reflects on you as a person not a rank.
I expect people will have something to say again but to sum what I think up.....A new rank would be a great idea but maybe the way it is gained is through a staff vote or something, vT donations is rubbish rank does not reflect respect or maturity or even commitment. Im sure staff will come up with a solution but just remember you cant please everyone!
Any ways after all Hretty owns the server and he has his minions to help run it, at the end of the day what they as a collective say goes.
Before I go on to even more of a tangent ill stop as I have lost my train of thought.........
