New Rank System

[coolzeldad]

The current system will be entirely wiped and no information will be utilized in the promotion process for the new ranks.

In other words, respected is gone - doesn't matter what status you were in new system.

Nothing (time, money, contributions) has a direct influence on promotions.

There are no dates made for the removal of the current system.

The new system must be ready to deploy before the old system is wiped.

I will most likely give a week's time in advance for people to reapply, as to avoid issues.
