haloman30 168 Posted July 6, 2015 So, since the beginning of Chaotic United you have had only one way of getting higher in the ranks - donating. In fact you could go as far as to say they were less "Donation" and more "Purchasing". There were always a few people who didn't want to pay a hundred dollars for a fancy prefix and some kick-ass permissions. Well, that is all about to change. Introducing a new way to climb the ranks of Chaotic United, the Time-Based Ranking system! This new system can allow those with less money to spare a way to get shiny ranks. And let's be honest, playtime matters just as much as the dollars that fund us. Those dollars are useless without a playerbase online to show their love for the community. And, if you are one of those people who think that spawning items takes away all fun and enjoyment, don't worry. Once you've been on long enough, you don't rank up until you "claim" your rank. Please note you can still purchase ranks normally despite the implementation of this new system. Think of it like an alternative way to get the ranks. Currently, the only limitation is that you can only go up to Benefactor, due to the fact that Supporter and Chaotic have WorldEdit. This could change in the future at some point. Also, if you earn a rank, and wish to purchase one (say you reach Benefactor and want to go higher) you can contact either me or AwakenedRage and you will be able to buy a rank with the discounted price (the same as if you actually bought Benefactor). With this system, the Guest rank has been re-implemented. If you are a new member, you will need to be on the server for a few short minutes in order to become Member. Time towards a rank is based on time online, not time since you first joined. (ie, 12 hours per day for 2 days is 1 day towards a rank) You will not earn any time towards your rank if you are AFK. Rankup Requirements (Last updated 7/6/2015): Member - 2 Minutes Donator - 5 Days VIP - 10 Days Platinum - 25 Days Creator - 40 Days Sponsor - 60 Days Benefactor - 100 Days Supporter - Not yet attainable via Time-Based progression Chaotic - Not yet attainable via Time-Based progression You might notice that the amount of days is equal to the price. I figured that would make it pretty fair and equal. This feature has only now been implemented, so it may or may not work correctly. If you have any issues ranking up, please inform a Staff member. We have plenty more in the works, and we hope you enjoy this long-awaited feature to CU. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

haloman30 168 Posted July 7, 2015 damn... wait so I basically only have to play two days without donating for vip or I should bought the donator first? VIP is 10 days, if you bought a rank already then I can manually add the time to your account so that the time will be deducted as well.
