    Minecraft Name: AgentHare

    Suggestion: Add a rank in which people continually earn, bid and receive a rank. This is a one person at a time rank.

    Reason: We can continue adding [Eco7748393029] ranks until we have no words to follow Eco, or we can add something that will increase overtime.

    Any Other Information: It will work something like:

    Andrew opens up a thread for the rank, starting at 2 million. Users A, B and C all bid and User B comes out victorious with 6 million ECD. He is bestowed the rank.

    Having a head start, User A earns 7 million ECD of hard work and lucky lotto, however he is a Tycoon. He submits the app, being the required 250k from the previous purchase from User B. He gets the rank and User B returns to EcoMaster.

    User B gets a lucky lotto win and combined he has 8 million ECD and rebids for the rank , receiving it once again. User A becomes an EcoLegend.

    Repeat.

    Forum bonuses: Medal, a tag/banner thing like moderators get maybe.

    Please post feedback.

    Sounds a lot like my suggestion in TomKelly's suggestion post.
    http://ecocitycraft.com/forum/threads/suggestion.98555/

    I don't believe you should be able to bypass the ranks that are already in place. You should have an additional rank above EcoLegend, for those elite people in ECC. You may say, that'll take to long or something. Well, this is a hardcore economy server. Things shouldn't be handed to you on a silver platter.

    -1 The rank will be either Back, Georgie or Stolio. There's already too many medals for spending money on

    I'm confused.
    So if I bid 5 mil, get the rank. Then someone outbids me I loose the rank?

    Thanks Kuke.

    So I'm gonna need to -1 this. It seems like waste of money, for which could be a temporary rank.

    It's not like you have to buy it. It allows other users to save and spend money on it if they desire. It'll take money out of the economy.

    It'd only take money out of the economy temporarily as whenever someone makes a new bid, the money would have to be refunded to the previous rank owner. -1

    I like the idea of having a rank where only one user has it at a time, but it is lame that you lose your money when the next person outbids you. What's the point then?

    again, it's kind of like lottery. it's a risk you can take if you're willing.

    But you don't win
    You spend your money for something that you won't have for more than a week or so. That's not a risk, that's just stupid.

    It's not like lottery, because there's no bigger gain.
    It's not even a risk people will take.
    You bid on something, millions of dollars go into it, and then you lose it 2 weeks later because someone else bid higher. Then you're out of an expensive rank and you lost all the money that went into it.

    People are already reluctant to get ranks higher than EcoLeader, let alone get some ridiculous auctioned rank you might lose at any point in time. It's silly.

    At first it may be 2 weeks but eventually it will be months. It gives you an eternal thing to make money for that continually challenges you.

    What else is there to save money for at that point? Lottery? Get richer?

    At first it will be nothing, there's only a handful of people who would be able to afford paying a lot of money for a rank like this, and from what I've seen, they don't like wasting money. A rank that does nothing but make you lose money does not seem like a much wanted thing.

    You could always ask the people who actually have the money to afford such a ridiculous idea and get their opinion.
