                     The "Ranks and Heirarchy" Tutorial

Ok, last but certainly not least, is a discussion about ranks.

There is a rank system on this talker ranging from an Applicant (Level 0), 
which is what most of us know as a newbie or new user to the talker, to an 
Admin, which is an owner/administrator over the talker.

With each rank/level you get more commands.  One quick note though,

** Don't ask for promotions!  This will get you nowhere and in a hurry     **
** The admins and staff members of the talker do love having you here, but **
** demanding they promote you, or you will leave, will have no affect      **

The easiest way to track the ranks on the talker, is to type ".ranks"

This will list out the ranks, in order, from top to bottom, and from lowest 
to highest.  It will also show you the commands total per level, along with
how many more are added to that level.

This command also shows you what rank you currently hold.

This is a common output from the ".ranks" command:

Your rank is 2 (a Honor) <----- ***YOUR RANK***

1    a Student of Magic   (00030)          69               100
2    a Honor              (00270)          8                108
3    a Wizard             (02150)          40               148
4    an Admin             (21000)          19               167

There are 167 commands in the system.


For more information on this command please see ".h ranks"

Well, that about does it for the tutorials session.  Thank you
for your patience and we hope that you enjoy your time here.

THANK YOU!!
