"While I'm seconding you, I do agree about rank and priviledges of the title. But you are right about a Navy needing discipline, as some of you know I have an insight on such matters."
*Winks broadly at Darkfire.*
"Although rank should not be based souley on personality. A combination of both coins earned and personality and the ability to lead. Because that's what beasts of higher rank are supposed to do. Lead."
"As to pay, I think the way things are now are just fine. Beasts with ambition tend to get what they want, and those who aren't as active. Well they'd just end up getting a free ride, and do you want a newbie getting a share of the loot that you worked so hard to get? I don't think so."
*Walks toward Darksun.*
"What do you think of that?"*Turns to all those gathered.*"What do you all think of that?"

"I am sorry, but I did not mean that rank should be based solely on personality, but it should make up part of it. No one is going to follow a crabapple. But those less active people would be getting a free ride, as to get good pay, you have to work hard and earn your rank. Do you know what a seabeast makes in a typical navy? About the equivilant of 10 gold a month, and that's just to live on!" (NT) -- Aaron, 15:17:52 11/04/02 Mon
