New Rank Permissions

[shppthwhtfx]

I'm not sure that /time should be given to Architects. This isn't because they couldn't be trusted with it, it's just that it is a rank that will rarely be used (like how T8 is supposed to be, but only focusing on the builds).

@Ind good observation, Architect is a hard achievement, /time would best be placed in Honored status, I personally feel.

@aeon's @ind architect is lower on the chain of permissions according to your model, and the argument is it's not about distrust, but because less people will have /time. That makes no sense o.o please reread your arguments and change your minds

@aeon oh right, I forgot about IA ...if IA is made then they can have a side project of investigating reports of /weather storm abuse =) ok give them both to honored+

I was thinking the same about making a new promo thread for the new ranks, though I think we can make it simpler with the fewer ranks.

Rank Cooldowns
As for the cooldown between everything but member/honored: I don't think architect/honored architect is relevant, it would still take a month theoretically since they became member to get to know them. They should be able to make that switch whenever they've acquired the proper amount of trust/helpfulness (or whatever we're making that rank require) after that one month of playing period. And I think it would take about a month for a true architect to create the awesomeness that SHOULD be architect.
so lets make it a simple "you can't be promoted the first month of being a member, after that you get a promo when you meet the requirements for whatever rank you're shooting for" Is there a way to tag someone who's been rejected a rank so we're not spammed with requests every day? That /note system fishy tried to start? A separate area on the promo thread? A "please don't ask every day" to our members and trust they don't?
