Ranks

Public message that appears in-game whenever a player donates an amount.

On RetroMC (server), there are 15 ranks:

• 4 for normal players
• 4 for donators (https://store.retromc.org)
• 7 for staff members (Sever Operator and Infrastucture have no in-game rank)

Higher ranks also have the perks of lower ranks (Trial Helpers have Mystic perks, Mystic has Legend perks & so on).
Note: If a player has already purchased a rank previously, they only need to specify the amount between what they have already Previously Payed and the desired rank to upgrade to. There are terms for donating to RetroMC, see https://store.retromc.org/terms.
