    Hello community and fellow staff,

    I come with you a suggestion that I strongly abide by and it is "Life Time Ranks per Server"

    Currently, the only Life Time Ranks that you can receive are Global Life Time Ranks:
    http://shop.brawl.com/category/358736

    And if you want to purchase per server, you can only purchase monthly time limits:
    http://shop.brawl.com/category/361449

    I would like to see the server add A Life Time Rank for one server only.

    The majority of players here play on MC War and some, only play on MC War (me for example).

    I do not play other minigames and do not plan on playing on other minigames.

    An addition of a server only lifetime rank is very beneficial to players who only play one server.

    The Server-Only LifeTime Ranks, of course, will NOT be very cheap, but of course, it will be cheaper than the Global Life Time Ranks. Here were my ideas for prices.

    $25 for VIP for one server (LifeTime)
    $50 for MVP for one server (LifeTime)
    $100 for ELITE for one server (LifeTime)

    Some of you may bring up the concern that the server will lose money due to the lack of money. I find this untrue and here are my reasons for this.

    1) The more obvious one, some players, such as me, will probably never be able to afford even $60 for VIP and will almost never even think of trying. $25 is within range.

    2) $25 is actually not too cheap. There are 11 gamemodes in MC Brawl with 1 more (WildWest) being added. $60 is access to all 12 gamemodes which is only $5 per gamemode. If you pay with $60 for per server lifetime ranks, you will only receive 2.

    3) You do not receive hub benefits. Server-only donor ranks will not receive the awesome gadgets and particles etc. in the hub. This is another loss in the server-only rank side.

    4) The "little" regret. Take me as an example. I only play MC War right now and decide to buy the $25 rank.
    Now say I get very interested in WarZ (which I am looking into), I would need to pay $25 for that again. In total $50 which is still cheaper, but let's say the new WildWest comes out and it looks awesome and my mouth is watering to buy it. I would have to pay another $25 for the rank which is $15 more than $60 and I only receive benefits on 3 servers. I don't even receive hub benefits, so in some cases, this is a risk.


    Before I leave it to the community, I will say that the prices CAN change. Here are prices if the current ones are too low.

    $30 for VIP for one server (LifeTime)
    $60 for MVP for one server (LifeTime)
    $120 for ELITE for one server (LifeTime)

    The pricing above only allows a person to have VIP LifeTime server ranks on 2 servers whereas they could save the money and receive VIP server ranks on the whole hub.

    Thank you and please give constructive feedback.

    I agree. The fact that only global life time ranks are allowed is kind of annoying. Some of Brawl's new members are from mcpvp, and we really only play HG on here, so I don't see the point in wasting money for other servers that we're not even going to play on for lifetime ranks. This doesn't just apply to HG, it applies to anybody playing other servers that don't play on others as often.

    $100 for ELITE on 1 server? On every server it doesn't give you much really, and that's nearly as much as a 3DS. Way too expensive.

    I would buy lifetime MVP on WarZ if this was implemented.

    No, because the 3 month price is near these, it would have to be higher, say 75$ per server for lifetime MVP.

    That is true, I didn't take that into consideration. It is fine if the price will need to be adjusted, I just want the idea of server only lifetime ranks to be implemented.

    It is meant to be this way for players who do not want to have a rank on other servers as well.

    Thank you for the thread. I didn't see it.

    Thank you for your opinion.

    I lobe the idea!
    But as you already said, there are some risks. We, as normal members, need staff like @chickenputty. We cannot go in the server console and we can't, edit the brawl shop.
    Staff needs to judge this, but I say it's a cool idea :wink:

    What happens if we decide to discontinue the server?
    What happens if you want to upgrade?

    You should be able to chose another server to change your lifetime rank to (as long as all the server lifetime ranks are the same price).
    You pay for a rank upgrade (so in OP's example for prices, to upgrade server lifetime VIP to server lifetime MVP it should be $30, for example).

    I think that the prices you listed may work, however I think it would be beneficial to make them slightly higher.
    According to the Brawl Shop, you can get global VIP for 90 days for only $25. And as you listed, the price for VIP lifetime (per server) could be $25. I think that this is in error and also not in error: a twenty five dollar 90 day global VIP compared to a twenty five dollar 100 year (logically) server VIP seems a little bit overpowered.

    According to GamingStats, on average, people will play their favorite Minecraft server for 1 month in total in-game playing time in their lifetime. That means approximately 720 hours in total on one server. If you payed lifetime VIP ($25) for one server, you wouldn't be playing the one server for your whole lifetime.
    If you live 90 years, you will be alive for 788, 400 hours.

    According to several forum posts and blogs, the average person plays 2.5 hours on Minecraft every day. So, if you donate for the Lifetime VIP ($25) And only play War, you will have yourself covered. However, if you donate for the Lifetime VIP for 90 days for global, and you pay 2.5 hours everyday until the rank expires, you will have played a total of 225 hours. Since there are about 10 different game modes in Brawl, let's say you play every single one for the same amount of time, and you only play brawl for 720 hours TOTAL in-game time. This means that you have played 72 hours in each game mode. If we set up a proportion here,

    720/225 = 72/2.5
    10 over 90. This means that... Uh, I forgot what I was doing.

    In conclusion, I indeed overthunk this. Goodbye.

    I'm back from a break, but solutions:
    1. Discontinue the server: Give them code for a rank on another server or $X coupon to make up for the rank. Proper proof must be provided or the staff team can search it up.
    Of course, no refunds.

    2. Upgrade to Global?

    Two options:

    You can either just make it
    Global price - Server rank price = Rankup price

    Or make it more expensive than if you bought Global at the start.

    If you want Server ranks for 2 servers, you will have to pay full price for both.

    I do agree on this. But if this was for 1 server only, Life-time ranks would have to be cheaper.

    From what i see people generally limit themselves to 1-2 servers on brawl and i think lifetime ranks for a specific server would be a really great idea.

    This was a sale on mcpvp around EULA, thats why a few members including myself have lifetime ranks. However that sale did end up costing mcpvp a lot of money, imo they should just do year sales instead (1 year of vip, mvp, elite).
