I hope the old ranks that went ABOVE 30 Million that used to be located on the guild forums were put in a notepad somewhere....before deleting them...

No they were not saved. Its been 2 years or so since we went to the 30M gets their own rank. Mashene came up with our current leveling rank theme .. and you know how far back that went.

I got the feeling people wanted to start fresh with a new theme for ranking anyways. Might be a fun guild contest with some FSP prizes.

This thread needs some touching up .. its out of date.

Ranks updated a solid bit. Most of it is up to date. Will check again tomorrow.

So at the "Personal Ranking" the tax rate increases from 15% to 20% or that is an option?

Hi there,

The GXP ranks go from 10% tax rate after the 2 mill point to 15% which then changes to 20% after the 25 mill point which will remain throughout your FS ranks unless you ask for a tax rate between 20 and 25% on a custom rank.

Hope this helps.

-Carl

Oh okay, so you can adjust the tax rate once you get to that point if you WANT to but it has to stay between 20% - 25%... Okay, thank you for clearing that up with me sir.

You are welcome.

Gutie can lower tax rates temporary down below 15% however this is rare and at HIS discretion ONLY and like I said is rare and for a short time. And we don't really do this when it's not fair on those at 20 or even 25%. But if theres a good reason behind it he will definitely listen.

Tax rate is cut off by the game at 25% so it can't be higher

Okay, so looks like I will have to wait until I get to Personal Rankings then; I just want my tax rate to be increased to 25% is all.

You can always do deposits as well, effectively taxing you at a higher rate

That is a very good point Dakkon.

Also Tab, I just want to thank you on behalf of the guild for wanting to help out more and even wanting your tax rate highered

Not a problem JayLee; Just want to do something a lil more for the guild, even though it is not much but it will have to do! =D
