Guild Ranks

With the advent of guild ranks, guild leaders are now able to give out powers to as many guild members as they like. This is a great way to take some of the burden off a guild leader, and also a way to make guild members feel more empowered. Guild ranks are never in color, even if your guild has a Monument. They also only show in guild chat and the guild members list. Members that have a guild rank will still have their regular rank show up in the Players Online list and elsewhere, such as Main chat. Guild ranks are created by a guild leader and/or another guildmate(s) that is given the power to do so. Only the guild leader can assign a rank though. The process of creating a rank and assigning one are simple enough. Here's how Note: Admin intervention may be necessary in cases of catastrophic screw-ups.
