Ahoy!
Few rank changes today, Hopefully a blog post to follow soon. Today I changed the way every rank shows up in the server to unify chat and clean it all up a bit!
For those of you that were online when I tested every icon under the sun between ranks, sorry for the chaos!
All ranks have the same colors, their icons have changed, every single rank now has the same icon, and its this »
Why change the ranks icons?
I was adding a new rank and experimenting with changing other rank icons, then it hit me how messy the current system is, Icons were either username *: message or username +: Message, Staff had their own icons.. this is just a mess! So everyone now has username » message.
I removed the : between username rank icon and message to gain us 1 more character and tidy up output, since this icon looks like a rank badge and an arrow pointing at the message it’s a double wammie in my books.
What about ranks without icons?
deckhand, sailor and lieutenant all didn’t have rank icons, which made removing the : look weird to separate the username from the message, so they all now have an icon next to their name, deckhands is white, sailors is blue and lieutenant’s is white.
So a this is roughly what it looks like now:
If you have a recommendation to improve this, please reply to this thread.
Whats this Privateer Rank?
Privateer is PirateCrafts first media team rank, this rank includes: Fly, Player Time (day/night/dawn/dusk) & TPPOS (Teleport to coordinates)
This rank is designed for the media team to quickly teleport to a location, fly and take screenshots of it for Build Of the Month & Gallery screenshots for the website.
So I would like to congratulate and welcome arinthros and Chailey to the Media team at PirateCraft! They will be taking control of PirateCraft Build Of the Month competition media & writing, Arinthros will mainly be doing screenshots and Chailey will mostly be writing for the blog posts and forum messages, so when you see a BOTM entry form in the competitions forum from these guys, its legit!
@ChaileyOfficial @arinthros
Sidenote: Anyone pestering arinthros or Chailey to use their new perks outside of their media role will be put in a pit filled with rats.
Sidenote #2: Do not post in here asking to be on the media team, This forum thread was used to recruit! anyone that asks to be on the media team in this thread will be put in a pit filled with rats.

I can alredy imagen us being 80 years old and still playing in the server. Allways updating it!

And well done chailey and arinthos (if I spelt that right) for that new rank.
You both deserve it.
Chailey for his long devotion to the server and all the help he gives.
& Arinthos for his build of the month mania, I’ve seen his USA white house build (from map); and it’s HUMUNGOUS!!

August 28, 2015 at 6:52 pm #20219Since we are on the topic, do you think it would be worth denoting players who have donated for permanent ranks with their own username color? It would be cool to be able to differentiate those who donate for boatswain after a few hours from the players who put 30 days of playtime into the server. It would be a nice way to thank them for their donation too!
We’d have to figure out how it would conflict with the current post-donation dark green too, because many donators have also earned their non-donation rank. Otherwise players with very little playtime who donate for a permanent rank after donating for captain would look the same as the veteran donators.

No, the idea from having structure in colors is that anyone at any point can know exactly what rank a player is, start giving people their own custom colors and that all goes out the window!
August 29, 2015 at 3:06 pm #20255hey ik this is a long shot but what about the bad player rank? its like an extra sinble next to you’re name and is giving to the people that are muted recently warned or are in the mist of getting banned for something.
