Lots of people are getting higher levels. Since 3 of the branches of our ranking system is based primarily on base level for rank promotion, I feel its time yet again to update.

Last time, people were starting to get above level 12..and like 2 people were level 14 or 15. So I simply added a new rank for each of the 3 branches, to cover 3 more base levels. This time, the leaps and gains are far to much, and I am not creative enough to add like 6 new ranks for each of the branches.

Also we've raised the minimum level requirement from lvl 5 to 7, to join the kingdom (also from 50 hours to 55, but that is of no consequence). So Conscript, Adept, and Vendor (lvls 1-3), and the ranks for 4-6, are not really placed well at the moment.

General Infini Ryo already took the liberty of devising a different setup, which I think is fine, so we will make it standard for not only the military, but also the magi and economic sects.

The new breakdown will be as follows, and we will slowly be transfering people to the new system, as they sign on I guess.

lvl 7 = Conscript
lvl 8-10 = Sentry
lvl 11-13 = Swordsman
lvl 14-16 = Knight
lvl 17-19 = Paladin
lvl 20+ = Gaurdian

That is the new setup for the military. Obviously the equivilents of the other 2 branches will fall into the same setup (vendor and adept are now also lvl 7, etc). Gaurdian was added as a new rank for higher level members. I will have to figure a new rank for the other 2 branches as well, I'd appreciate some suggestions.

The Navy is not affected by this change, as its promotion system is based soley on merrit. Also the special titles are obviously not affected since there was never any rank promotion method in the first place.

Alright well thats it!! I'll keep this stickied for a week or so.
