two types of ? rank ie freemium and premium [Done]

Post by rebelman »

* Suggestion Idea:

To be able to distinguish between premium and non premium new members

* Specifics:

Like every other rank have a gold and silver option depending on whether or not they are premium

* Why it is needed:

If a ? has paid $20 to play it shows a level of commitment and they are a lot less likely to deadbeat and players would possibly stop dropping games when ? join, if they realise that ? is a premium member.

I believe it is the mising link in our current rankings chart and its creation would have several other benefits including deciding whether to allow them enter clans, tournaments etc.

i kind of remember this being suggested before.

I dunno why it was rejected or whatnot but this seems like something that wouldn't take much effort to implement. Then again, it just takes 5 games to lose that ?

I don't think there have ever been any premium ? members. Most people don't decide to shill out $20 until after at least ten games.

Not that I'm against the idea, but it just seems kind of useless.

Why not doing the classic silver and gold? Why are they red?

Because the silver and gold is new, not classic. The red, on the other hand, is.

I don't think this is a very big concern because the person will stop being a "?" after a few days if they upgrade to premium. It might have made sense to back gold and silver question marks when we updated the ranks, but I definitely don't think its necessary.

Gold/Silver would suck. We already have a red question mark. Why not just make non-premium blue? Then we keep the silver/blue gold/red theme.

go CC. Personally, I've played against a few new recruits with premium membership when they are in more than 4 concurrent active games.
