Tier 1: You have participated in one server session with no issues.
Tier 2: You have started to show a basic understanding of the server’s culture towards these games. You have proven you are not toxic towards fellow players and staff.

Tier 5: Your decisions are now mostly driven by your narrative. You need to have shown that you embrace your losses. You repeatedly prioritize your RP over better/optimal mechanical choices. You are by now known for your reliability and great storytelling. You have, at the very least, participated in your second Season of a game at Imperia.
Once rank 4 is achieved, you need to put in an application to achieve rank 5 and join the prestigious Lords of Imperia.

Tier 6: You have shown that your stories and roleplay now directly tie into, affect, and improve fellow players. You have shown a willingness to help others in the server.
