Anyways - you guys are too strict - if that isn't architect worthy then I don't know what is. And while I don't think double promotions should happen, if kattoo sticks around on our server and continues building stuff like that (i.e. one more thing like that ^^), then I don't see anything wrong with an architect rank, that is skipping the time requirements. If he has been promoted to architect already, then I won't be making a fuss about it either since again - for me ranks are more of a COMMON SENSE thing than a matter of following strict rules but since we have been proven time and time again that many people lack common sense...

Fine timeline then:

day 1: promoted from guest to builder for who knows what
day 2: Made an epic architect-worthy terminator
day 4: Made epic mason-worthy thing. Gets promoted from builder to mason
day 7: Submits terminator for architect-promo. Gets promoted from mason to architect

This solves the doublepromo-"problem". The 1-week-rule for architects is, in my opinion, only there to give the player time to get a feel for how this server works (ie DRAMA) and what we think is
worthy of a promotion to builder or not. THAT is the only reason why I'm not logging in right now and promote him. Because he has not been around long enough.

Yeah, I get that. It just doesn't make sense... but Lim has spoken, so its a moot point.

I think this sounds fine to me!
I agree with Lim. You guys are too harsh and yeah. No double-promo.

Just wanted to give props to Kattoo for retaining the badass essence of THE TERMINATOR in his build. This is tricky to do in minecraft, as many users fall victim to over-simplicity and poor resolution, which is the quickest way to make a piece seem soulless. We need more awesome figures and fewer hotels IMO

BTW lots of GREAT 3D models have been made on the adv maps since I've been gone

oh heavens this

it's a good thing competitive nature of minecraft is being reigned in - details and such are in other threads - cos that's not how things happen around here. by the sounds of it, there probably won't even be an architect rank, and if i understand right, then the builder's skill won't be a factor in making promotions at all; it'll be judged by whether that user can be trusted with power and will help make the servers and the community a cool place to be so that people can carry on playing the game and building cool stuff like this. whilst you could say that the competitive aspect and going from promos leads to cool stuff like a fucking gigantic terminator made out of lego, the elitist culture that appears to have sprung up because of it isn't a healthy trade off. i'm not on the minecraft servers alot, so this opinion is less qualified than everyone elses, but the forums pretty much speak for themselves. and that's pretty much how it's gonna go down anyway, whether you like it or not

forunately, most people seem supportive of the change. hopefully, the mindset will change too, and it will spread to the wider community (and if they don't, they'll most likely be told to get on their bike ) and SpA will become a more integrated and like-minded place to be.

I know this has sort of been answered but i feel i should put my 2 bobs worth in , I went straight from mason to mod (heck i also went straight from guest to veteran ) architect (was) sort of (was) equal to mod, its just that mod was for people more talented with admin type stuff (myself) and architect, for people more talented with build type stuff (like all the architects)
