SMP Rank Suggestion -- Architect

(1/3) > >>

Xeadin:
This is only a suggestion, but this rank would separate the highly skilled, highly dedicated builders from those that build to their own leisure. It's pretty much the equivalent to the Crafter in the Classic server, but not sure what kind of quirks you could grant an Architect in SMP-- probably teleporting permissions?

Anywho, the application process would be the same or similar as Crafter, where you'd need an admin's permission just to put it up and then an admin reviews it again and decides if the player has built enough fine creations to be considered an outstanding architect.

These players would also be able to help in designing new spawns and towns for new worlds (which we may be doing here in the weeks to come).

Tell me what you think. Also, the rank color would be the same as Crafter


The reason why I am suggesting this is I have personally seen some very neat constructions out and about throughout the server (Zezenov's town of Stettin, dedlymagik's city, Terrewee and ZXFEAR's joint city project -- just to name a few).

The reason we did not include any building ranks originally is because we are a survival server, not a creative server.

Xeadin:
I guess I didn't figure that into the mix... oh well :)

Let's stick to the normal program and forget I even said anything :P

Hold on... i have seen a lot of quite good building on smp, but the builders had so much trouble making it not because of lack of materials but not being able to get to area where they wouldn't die falling off.

I like the idea and maybe the only perk would be the ability to fly.

Persian only made good looking buildings because he could fly.

I believe that this rank could benefit smp in the long run, but only if you can realize how much good it can bring to the server. Sure our server looks nice but... the spawn really isn't that impressive and the moderator lounge is literally a box... No one likes boxes for building probably the most interesting structure in spawn is the warp station and no one goes there...

We don't need a humungous spawn, but at least something that draws people to explore rather then

Oh just run around the side look at the signs... have fun... that is super boring... and the spawn doesn't even flow well you spawn on a boring side overlook of a fountain inside a box... make it more grand and beautiful,

Like we say on classic less Quantity more Quality

Our goal was to make a simple spawn that the users could get info from. We succeeded big time. Your complaints about the spawn are exactly what we were going for. No one cares about the spawn, they just want to get out into the world and play.
