I know Veteran is for people who donated before V5. But, I had an idea. Maybe people who have been online the server a certain amount of time. (Like for example since 2011) They get the veteran rank? Please give some feedback! I would love to hear what you guys think!

Maybe instead if you have been on the server for a year? Cause people could have registered in 2011 but been on the server total like 2days.

I would think that an hours requirement would work. Someone could log in to the server for 5 minutes every week and that isn't involvement. At what point is a player declared inactive by the server?

Well, yea. What Miner_Man said. The server should reward someone who has been playing on the server continuously for a year or even close to 2 years. Just a thought..

Nebih, I think I know you want Veteran, because you've been on here for a whole year. :)
But the Veterans are only those who have DONATED before V5. Maybe if after you donated, you might
wanna ask an admin.

I have. :3 Approaching 2 years soon. This May actually.

EDIT: Another thing. Veteran does mean someone who has had long experience in a field or occupation. So Doing this would deem appropriate.

When we originally set up the Veteran rank it was not to reward our long term players it was as a way to ensure that those members who Donated to us before we updated the donation system received a fair reward for what they were originally told they would receive. This happened to match the beginning of V5 as this was when we introduced the automated donations and Points system.

The term "Veteran" was probably not the best term we could have selected, as it seems to be causing some confusion these days. Taking a definition of the term isn't an explanation of how we have used the word. But back when it was introduced (and still) it has nothing to do with how long you have played. Not to say this may or may not change in the future.

Being a Veteran isn't even the top level any more since our latest VIP upgrade Veterans are actually able to upgrade their account to include new VIP features such as the warps, chest/workbench access, increased McMMO, etc.

Not really sure if I was correct about what I said. But this is some really good info.
