Other Ranks?

I agree. I have actually screwed around with ranks on my own server. It isn't too hard if you are using essentials permissions.

Rank ideas:
Guest: very few permissions - the rank that protects against griefers, and also lets you know who the new players are
Member: Active member, give them some extra commnads, not too much, though(like the current lowest rank is)
OP: Trusted member... they have control over just about everything on the server, but some commands should be restricted so they cant accidentally crash it, for instance, TONS of cake crashes people's client if they are close enough to it, so restrict worldediting cake.
MIKE(superoopppppppp): has every command... he IS the owner

Loser, the ideas nice but ops know who to trust and not to trust by activity, bans, kicks, and by becoming friends. Pas used to be a reg player, I never had a complaint about him, got to know him, now hes an op. Frankly we don't need these because all it would do is separate players into categories we already put them into already. Sorry if it seems harsh.

The point isn't to separate players. The point is to prevent random new people from warping to your house and griefing it.
