Greetings.
I have got another suggestion, and this time it's about new rank. We all know that it is a struggle to become a Mod after you manage to get a VIP rank, so to carve that delay between those two ranks I am suggesting to add a new VIP+ rank for more experienced players. The same system has been used on the other servers, position known as "S-VIP", but I am planning to make it better.
VIP+ will be capable of using the commands:
!check <id> !rename <id> !ipall !mute <id> //not longer than one minute !unmute <id> !w <id> !vm
Features for VIP+:
Checking online users. Changing font color. Using the VIP+ tag. Warning players for camping and insulting. (?)
Notes:
VIP+'s will be forbidden from using their command over VIPs !w <id> is kind of moderator's thing, that is why, there should be a delay until VIP+'s will use that command in order to avoid spamming. VIP+ players will have to provide several proofs whenever they report a user, that means Mods can not have their trust. I will change the current VIP+ name to better one.
This is not the complete list of abilities for VIP+, I will edit this thread and add more sooner or later. I will be thinking about other changes to balance the ranking system.
Regards.

Nickname: Mast USGN ID: 130797 What rank are you applying for? VIP+ auhauhe Why do you want to apply? I am so fucking epic so I want to make the others be epic too. Will you abuse? Stupid question. * * 8) Are you planning to apply for MOD1 in future? VIP+ = Very Important Person Plus so I go and epicly skip all the shetty mod ranks. Final Comment: Fuck you all and your 1April pranks. ---------------------------------------------------------- Good idea. It fits good to the guyz (like me) that can't be MOD1 in a serious Community like -[IFwsI]-...Honestly, give me a half of MOD1 rank and I'll be happy forever.

Bad idea we have enough ranks as is, I still think VIP should be named Super-User but I guess it's just me.
We have done it before, even I recommended it in the old forum but it was rejected for good reasons, just leave the ranks alone it wont hurt to have the gap from VIP to Mod1 that much

We've also lost a lot of good users because of that big gap. It will just balance this system.

Those people were rank hunters and left because they didn't deserve Mod1 but couldn't stay in VIP.

You have got a strong point, but still, adding a new VIP+ rank will increase the amount of members in this community. Some people can not just manage to become Mod, we have Mast for a great example of this. Some of them do not have time to stay that much and etc.

I believe I've said this before in the previous forums. I'll say it again since I can't find that topic.
The whole "VIP" status was made not for moderation purposes. The VIP rank is simply for fun purposes as you're a "Very Important Player" on the server. You get colors and attributes which other players do not get.
What I believe you're trying to relay here is supposedly a new rank which could alternate as an in-between a trial for experienced players who wish to contribute to the servers as a staff member. And for that we've got Mod1, which is the basic staff rank for testing out players and the in-between for becoming an actual Moderation (Mod2).
The VIP does have one special *optional* feature that's the !check (!whois yates admin script) command. VIPs are not obliged to act as Staff Members but they can actually report players on the forum.
You can jump straight to getting trialed as a Moderator if we believe you're ready for it. I personally never went through the VIP phase because I played without it and followed the rules appropriately, so I got trialed as a Moderator directly. That was my in-between for becoming an actual Moderator.
If we were to tell you to "run for VIP first", it simply means "We (admins + community) don't know you much so how about you become VIP first and show us what you've got" not that "You need to become VIP first before Mod1, this is for everyone".
Becoming a VIP for you then would mean to show other Moderators on the server how well you follow the rules on the servers. If you're going for an additional bonus, you can report players using !check/!whois to catch the eyes of the Admins. This is mandatory as Admins reply to your apply most of the time from the demeanour of other staff members towards you.

I personally don't see the need to add a rank between Mod1 and VIP. If a VIP gains enough trust, it shouldn't be a problem to make him a Mod1. This S-VIP seems to be a VIP with mute powers.

As everyone said, I don't belive that adding a VIP+ rank is a good idea. We have enough ranks. =)
