Ranks

[noublipasa]

I think ranks on zone are a really good thing, I mean when a noob sees an elite or a Legend hes like ¨wow they are awsome¨.
But really apart from having a black colored plasmasaber whats the point of ranks? I can see the point as there are weapons only available for soldier but then.... nothing....
I remember when I started zone I was like ¨cool now im soldier I get to use stomrifle and plasmasabre! But after that the ranks are useless.
So I think we should do something about this like you can only use some gelat shop weapons if you are marshall or sergeant. This is just an idea.
What do you think about it? What would be the problems with it?
