Tiering system

EarthCraft has it's own tiering system different than that of players of LokaMC or general PvP servers. A player's Tier is determined by factors evaluated by a staff member.

Description
The Tiering system in EarthCraft primarily deals with a player's activity on the server and attributes a player has. Inactive players who used to have high tiers will move down to a lower tier and more active players with lower tiers may move up to higher tiers. The Tier system is made to be as unbiased as possible.

Attributes
There are three attributes when it comes to tiering a player:


 * Fighting: A player's PvP skill, experience, or mcMMO combat usage. Basically how good they are at killing other players. High ranking in this category would include woppay, 420Orange and anyone who has a high status in PvP skill.
 * Intelligence: A player's intelligence when it comes to warfare, situations or general processing. For example, creating traps, making setups, making battle strategies against other players in order to defeat people more skilled than them in either influence or fighting.
 * Influence: A player's influence determined by factors such as money, men, and control. They could be the leader of a big nation, have good builds or have tons of people under their belt they could release at a whim. High ranking would be people like twerk4kanye or yugoblitz since they have big nations and massive wealth.

Ranges

 * 1-4: Low Range; Players who score this range are considered low in that category.
 * 5-6: Mid Range; Players who score in this range are considered average or mid in that category.
 * 7-10: High Range; Players who score in this range are considered high in that category.

Third Tier
Also known as Tier 3 / T3, this tier is primarily for newer players, or players who have no active involvement in the community. They score low on all three categories, or mid on one or two of them. Most Third Tiers don't interact much outside their own sphere of influence, and are often isolated from the rest of the world's politics.

Players in this tier are only capable of conquering a small town or piece of small land.


 * Examples:
 * Ian_Newton80
 * oWatur
 * _Wigla

Second Tier
Also known as Tier 2 / T2, this tier is for server regulars or player's who score high in one category, or mid in three categories. These players often are high in one category or score mid in all categories. Players in this tier are usually well known by the community and can be identified by others.

Players in this tier are capable of conquering small regions, while higher Second Tier players could conquer a small country.


 * Examples:
 * 420Orange
 * Endertainer (pre-Admin)
 * Inspectual

First Tier
Also known as Tier 1 / T1, this tier is for server players who score high on two categories, or high on one category and mid in two categories. These players are much more dangerous to come across or enrage as they have a significantly larger power over the other two tiers.

Usually, players in this tier are capable of conquering large portions of land or a large country, and players higher in this tier could conquer an entire continent.


 * Examples:
 * Cvijo
 * Lothrop_Stoddard
 * yugoblitz

Zero Tier
Also known as Tier 0 / T0, this tier is for server players who score high on all categories. These players are the most dangerous to make enemies with, as some can even scale beyond that of the entire tiering system. Currently, Zero Tier is split into three different subtiers: Low Zero Tier, Zero Tier, and Zero+ Tier.

Players who have this tier are capable of conquering multiple continents, and players higher in this tier are capable of conquering the entire world.


 * Examples:
 * twerk4kanye
 * woppay

Low Zero
Also known as Low Tier 0 / T0L, this is a subtier in Zero that specifically deals with players who make the bare minimum of Zero Tier. These players are classified as Zero Tier, but may not be as high ranking as other Zeroes.

Players who have this subtier are capable of at most conquering one to multiple continents.


 * Examples:
 * tavak
 * fadedyui

Zero+
Also known as Tier 0+ / T0+, this subtier is specifically for Zeroes who transcend that of a normal player within Zero Tier.

These players are so powerful and have such a grip on the world that they're nearly unstoppable to the main player base. Currently, none known active Zero+ exists.

Irrelevant Tier
There exists another tier known as Irrelevant, which only applies to Admins as they have no interference with the server.
