    Can we give the "trusted" rank another name? Maybe like "full member"? Because I think the trusted rank should be given to users who don't have over three warnings (within a month or a week or something.) And it shouldn't really be a rank. Because users like me who had bought ranks doesn't want their ranks to be replaced with 'trusted'. (Maybe. I can't speak for everything) So maybe make it where their name tag is a different color or have it where their rank changes color?

    I don't know.

    I'm sorry if this is random and all over the place.

    I agree with the name change. A lot of trusted people who get to that rank I notice get banned for grief, there should maybe a like a test or something to see if they actually know the rules before they can get the trusted rank or something like that?

    Indeed! Knowing the rules are simple and easy, and yet people keep breaking them. (Even though most of the excuses are 'that was my friend!!!' or something)

    It would be nice because it'll be easier to see who's really 'trusted' and who's just been on the sever for a full 24 hours.

    yeah. there should be like a maze of rules for beginners to make it clear to them, cause 99% of ppl dont read rules and break them.

    The issue is the "trusted" don't follow rules even because they don't read them. The maze sounds like a really good idea.

    Ya the trusted name should be changed but not all trusted's get banned for breaking rules. I got banned for pranking a friend and he did not know it was me so he got scared and tolled staff and they banned me for griefing lol.

    I'm not saying all of them grief. Just too many for the name to actually make sense, because if you're breaking rules, you aren't really trusted

    Well, I think it'd be smart to leave the automatic 24 hour Trusting system in place, but grant moderators and above the ability to revoke the title and demote the player if rules are broken.

    I still think it should at least get called something else. I don't know, though. You're right, too. Not trying to disagree with anyone or anything. But it's just my thought making Mods have that power doesn't really mean the user is still.. 'Trusted' just because they have been there for a whole 24 hours.

    Again, it's just my thought though.

    The [Trusted] title is to show that the player has dedicated 24 hours to AEMSurvival. You'll need to be said rank to use [/Tpa] and [Tpahere] and to revoke that for a rule they broke, is a little too harsh [So if a donor breaks a rule, do we revoke their title as well?] , unless they've used an AFK machine which is an entirely different case itself. I would like to leave it as it is, the trusted rank doesn't define a player, donors have also broken multiple rules, not just players with [Trusted]. You choose who you trust, prefix has nothing to do with this.

    Sorry but I'm not understanding this, replaced with trusted once you bought a rank? It's the other way round'.
    Example:
    Member [Trusted] [VIP] [Supporter] [Elite] [Premium] [Ultimate] [Extreme]
    If you buy any rank after trusted, you'll get that prefix instead. [Trusted] will not replace any of those ranks.

    I agree with even donors breaks rules. I have already got one warning for posting a link in the chat. But I'm not having any problems with the rank itself. I'm just having a problem with the name. I understand a rank itself doesn't define a player, but I mean giving it another name like [Full Member]. Again, I just think the word "trusted" bugs me slightly because MOST (not all) trusted members are not really.. trusted.

    And yes, I already know that. But that's not what I meant. Let's say if we changed the rank, or added a new rank.
    Member [Full Member] ☞ [Trusted] [VIP] [Supporter] [Elite] [Premium] [Ultimate] [Extreme]
    Or if we change the rank it'll be
    Member [Full Member] [VIP] [Supporter] [Elite] [Premium] [Ultimate] [Extreme]

    But if we keep or add a new rank, if you're like me, who bought a rank, how can you tell if you're a trusted user?
    So you could make the username tag a new color (not just the rank, kind of like Mods how their username tags have colors)

    But then again, this is a useless update and it doesn't really effect anything. I just suggested it because it was just a thought of mine and it bugged me a bit. I honestly don't care if this is added or not.

    I am sorry if it seemed like I was fighting with you.
    I wasn't trying to make it seem like that.
    But I'm also sorry if this is out of the place and random.
    I tried to keep it neat but once I become busy when I start writing these things they go everywhere.

    Oh no worries, this is just a debate, not an argument so don't worry about it.

    Well you can't tell, even if said player is trusted [ not by title ] he can still have a change of heart and decide to break the rules, then again, ranks are just titles, trust players on your own record - ranks are just title, nothing more, nothing less.

    Well it'll be to messy, too much color when we do [/who][/list] or holding tab. We want it as neat as possible.

    Reason why we change their name color is to gather more awareness, some players will just overlook thus we want it to stand out and not get flooded in the sea of text.

    The issue I have is some people just don't read the rules and get the rank and I personally don't feel they should have a rank that specifically says Trusted if they don't even know the rules. There should be a better way for people to read the rules when they join, like a maze

    I agree one hundred percent with you, Speed!

    I especially like the idea of having a maze that you have to escape from and wrong answers to questions about the rules lead to dead ends.
    Or maybe a quiz-based system where command blocks control teleporting to the next question if you click the right button of an answer.
    If you don't want to force a player into doing it when they first sign in, then change the requirement of [Trusted] to add the extra requirement of taking that quiz/maze!

    These are all just suggestions, of course, but I think it would improve the quality of the community and pull people further in...
    They'd be more invested into the community and even the logistics of the world.

    We'e done the maze AND quiz bit...
    Players can easily just guess until they get it right.
