    MiniRanks as a Donor Perk?

    Hi-

    Sythe and I are toying with some ideas regarding making a custom MiniRank a donor perk.

    Potential new perks:
    • A custom MiniRank you can use yourself. You would pick the icon and would then be able hide/show it like any other MiniRank.
      • You would not be able to give it to other people or trade it
    • A custom MiniRank you manage. You would pick the icon and would then be able to use it yourself and give it to others
      • Once you give it to someone, you would not be able to take it away (to prevent people selling them and then taking them away)
      • We may also allow you to control whether or not it's tradeable
      • There may be a limit on how many you can give out to other people
    • A custom MiniRank at one level ($300 for example) and then a second MiniRank at a higher level ($500 for example)

    We haven't decided on all of the details or what donor levels would be eligible for these. We're thinking the first perk may be $300+ and the second may be $500+. If we limit how many of your MiniRank you can give away, we may allow you to give away more at the $1,000 level (as an example).

    This is just something we're thinking about and we don't make any guarantees it will happen! Let us know your thoughts and any suggestions you have for how these perks could work.

    Thanks,
    -Matthew

    I'm down for a custom MiniRank, but would suggest keeping it untradeable (so your first suggestion). I'd just look at it as a personalized token. (Same concept as a UI/Custom Rank)

    MiniRanks as a Donor Perk?

    Thanks for the input. Just to clarify, the two things I listed could be separate perks. For example, at $300 you get your own MiniRank you can't trade/give away (#1), but then at $500 you can share that MiniRank with others (#2). I assume you support #1 but not the potential upgrade to #2.

    Correct, I think we shouldn't flood the market with more and more tradeable MiniRanks, however it would be cool to see what people come up with.

    guess I should clarify which idea I like more. But I think it should be untradable at least starting off

    What about 1 custom mini at $300 and a second one (or two more) at $500?

    MiniRanks as a Donor Perk?

    Certainly a possibility, but we also don't want to go too crazy with how many MiniRanks are out there. I'll add this to my original post and we can see what other people think.

    100% support option 2. This allows for services and businesses to give their workers miniranks. I.E. Bogla livechat workers can have one that shows that they work for bogla same for all the other livechats. This can work across questing and skilling services as well...

    MiniRanks as a Donor Perk?

    I actually Really like suggestion 1 + 2.
    First one I like because it's only for you, and no one else can have your MiniRank, which makes it special.
    Second one I like because you could either spam your Mini, or keep it to yourself so it's rare.

    MiniRanks as a Donor Perk?

    Here's an idea:

    $300+ Donors get 1 minirank as described(untradeable) for say 500 sythe gold.

    $500+ donors have the OPTION to purchase a 2nd minirank for 1,000 sythe gold.

    $1,000+ has the option for a 3rd minirank for 2,500 sythe gold.

    Anybody $300+ can buy the ability to trade their custom mini's for say a fee of 250-500 sythe gold.


    Any feedback on this? It adds 3 donor perks + gives sythe gold more use.


    It also will prevent the admin team from getting overworked creating mini's for every $300+ donor every single day, this way theres a cost in donation terms & in activity terms(where sythe gold comes from).

    MiniRanks as a Donor Perk?

    I personally dislike seeing a bunch of meaningless miniranks (+ w.e sythe gold is trying to communicate) displayed on the profile, so a bunch of meaningless donor miniranks that aren't only unique to the donor (second suggestion)...no thanks & please clean this stuff up instead [probably too late for though].

    MiniRanks as a Donor Perk?

    We already have those. Are you suggesting that if we allow custom MiniRanks there should be an option for them to be clickable? If so, should it be part of the custom MiniRank perk or earned at a higher level?

    Would be neat if possible for HIGH donors to redirect back to their site. Otherwise I think just images themselves would be nice.

    Here's a suggestion thread my boy @Excelont made a few months back on the topic Custom Non-Tradable Miniranks.

    Yea. Allow users to add a link to their current custom minirank at a higher level. It would be a nice little touch.

    Please don't make them tradeable. please.

    $300 -> 1 untradeable mini

    $500 -> 2nd untradeable mini

    $1000 -> 3rd untradeable mini (maybe link back to a site of your choosing?)

    MiniRanks as a Donor Perk?

    Why $300+? Because someone who is a $300+ suggested so?

    I like the concept, both concepts 1st and 2nd. But I feel the second idea should be restricted to say 5 mini's being able to be given out which isn't tradeable further. So it's like a club-type of concept. Or you give it to your favourite type of people? Also fine with the third concept, but still unsure of why at the higher end. $100 doesn't have many perks. Perhaps instead of prizeboxes this minirank system could be put in for that level, and then implement more at $300 and then another better version at $500 etc.


    Also like the idea that they could be clickable to a site. Not sure anyone would click it, but why not.
