Seperate VIP into two different ranks, one for Youtubers, and one for Mapmakers

I think that instead of having a VIP rank that map makers and Youtubers share, there should be two different ranks. Instead of calling purple VIP, which means 'Very Important Person', which is vague and both mapmakers and Youtubers can classify as, purple should be called the Youtuber rank. An idea that I have is that the mapmaker rank is a dark neon blue color. Similar to how moderators are a light reddish color, and senior mods are a dark neon red color. Diamond donors would be a light bluish color, and mapmakers would be a dark neon blue color.

I believe it was said a while ago that the plugin won't allow for it for some reason. Not sure though.

How does one get a dark neon color??? o_O
You can't? I have been watching some UHC matches on Youtube and the teams have colors like blue and yellow and stuff, I'm not really sure about how the plug in works but it's just an idea, it could be anything that is possible within the limits of MCSG, but I just thought that a dark blue color would be perfect for a mapmaker rank, I don't know why lol

I believe this is true, although it has been suggested plenty of times before (including once by me :p a while ago) I think we were told that something in the plugin won't allow for more ranks or something like that.

Although I believe Map makers and Youtube VIPs should be separate, I don't think it's all that big of a deal that they aren't. Like has been said above, it can be quite funny :p

Lol, it's a joke.

He's talking about how a neon color is supposed to be a bright and shocking one, a dark neon color would be contradictory as it doesn't make much sense. :)

I think the point he's trying to make is that a dark neon color doesn't exist, since neon colors are by definition, extremely bright colors. It's like asking for a reddish-blue color that isn't purple.

Anyways, it's a good idea in practice. I'm not sure how the plug-in wouldn't work, but if anything, we should confuse the community even more.

In every server, give it a random probability that someone would have the VIP rank, regardless of who they are. They wouldn't know it though, they see their name as green, but everyone sees it as pink or purple. Then everyone starts to bother them about "how they love their channel," or "team plz i fan," and before you know it, you're the first targeted in game, and you wouldn't have a clue. No one would even know that you're just a nobody because not everyone's memorized the VIP list. It's genius. It's like changing the b-day to your friend's facebook to the next day, and watch them get baffled from all the random birthday wishes.

I don't agree. VIP is given to people that has helped the server in a big way, and building a map is one —since without players making maps, well...
