We're Alive Minecraft server OPEN TO ALL WHITELIST ENABLED" on the 7th

Ah, Leader. That makes sense. However, not everyone is going to be Military. I mean, most people in the tower will be Civilians. So having Alpha, Beta, and so on wouldn't be the most realistic. We could use different words with the same meaning... Like I said before, there will be "ranks" so to speak, Top Dog, Figureheads of an area (Water, power, so on) And then a mod in each area.

How about just sticking with forum ranks? Your rank in game would reflect rank on forum, encouraging forum goers to Minecraft and vice-versa? (Donators could choose their own prefix within reason or their proper ranking could be worked out or just a D (for donator)). I promise I wouldn't pull rank (much) :P

Actually, I like that. It's the simplest, however it may also be the most complicated. It would mean I would need to manually add everyone's rank into the forum because I highly doubt Kc or nik or any of the admins and what not would allow me to add a automated ranker into the server which would require access to the forum's server files. I like that idea though but with our numbers it just doesn't seem like a feasible option.

I think, what might be easiest then would just to abbreviate their positions?
Civillian - CI
Water - WA
Power - PO
Garden - GA
Medical - ME
Supplies - SU
Scavangers - SC
and so on.

Or you could just make it super easy on yourself and create two categories of CI civillians and OS overseers, meaning they each oversee their own specific departments.

The only problem that I can see is people getting bored of their positions. And while ranks on the forum are a good idea, it doesn't neccessarily mean that they are good players. I don't know about donators either, it doesn't make much sense to me unless you set up a paypal account for people to donate to your server.

I think I'm just going to go with the nice and simple (Tow) and (Mall) prefix. That way, if the other team catches someone they won't know if that someone is important and the people within their own team should know who is in charge.

Any news on progress Mr. Daredevil?

Yes.. The server is built and completed. There was a problem with the OS I wanted to run and the multiple hard drive thing that I can't remember the name of. DDR5 or something. So now it is only one hard drive, but the hard drive is still Huge.

So now I just have to install stuff and write the permissions (which are almost done) then it will be up.... Also, I need to find a place to put it. IT'S FREAKING LOUD. HUGE FANS.
