Shpp: I already made a member7 (normal red) but I kept it secret. I gave it to Clo just the other day. =) There are 7 total rank colours... member, member2, member3, etc... member7... No "member1" to account for. =)
Here is some very helpful input by another player on this server which I would like to post anonymously, because it had some very valid and nice points to surmise the new ranking system.

Quote:As regards the ranks, I think [blank] is a little disappointed not to be able to progress through the ranks. It does create incentive for those users who strive to get more creative and put more effort into their builds. I think there are a lot of great builders on CFEW and some of the younger users are producing builds that are still interesting and creative without being huge architectural feats.
However, I totally get why you've had to simplify the ranks. I saw it take up a lot of Op time, especially with some users treating it as a race. Just too big a job and I get that.
I think that the move to introduce promos of Honoured and Architect do still sum up a couple of distinct categories of users - the users who don't necessarily shine in building but are pleasant respectful users who contribute socially to the server and are helpful, and the architects who might not be as social but excel in the design and creativity of their builds.
So basically I just wanted to contribute my opinion if you want to hear it. I think the new system is good if Architect is not completely out of reach to the average user. Maybe have a Super Architect for builds like yours Aeon, and Vray's, Shpp's etc. You can't apply for Super Architect, it is only by invitation or reserved for OPs eg.
Of course there is plenty more to CFEW than just the ranks so we will carry on enjoying to play regardless of the system in place
