Ranks

Ranks, also known as groups, are awarded based on a combination of factors, including donations (currently unavailable), community involvement, and staff status throughout Inferris. Different ranks offer varying levels of privileges and responsibilities.

Rank Acquisition

• Donations: In the future, supporting Inferris through donations may grant access to certain ranks as a thank you.
• Community Involvement: Active participation, helpfulness, and positive contributions can potentially lead to a rank reward.
• Staff Positions: Moderators and Administrators are appointed based on specific criteria and application processes (currently closed).
