Rank Systems

With higher ranks and privileges comes a higher amount of responsibilities. We tell here what they are so you can dictate your goals better.

In our guild, there are multiple ranking systems based on different activities of the guild. Members can hold multiple ranks, and all the ranks are accounted for in Discord. The first one, the general ranking, is displayed in Discord. But other ranks still matter for any advancement, in some cases significantly. Contribution points are not sole reasoning why someone is promoted, sometimes dedication, talents, activity are deemed more important. For higher ranks contributions are important but also work difficulty raises considerably to raise in these kind of ranks guild must know that appointed person can perform tasks within the rank.

Nobility ranks

Nobility ranks are given to people who are dedicated to the guild, and they have more vast responsibilities in one or more sectors of our guild activities.
