Something i never considered before and that is the topic of faction ranks (on badges) and rebuilds.
When you recreate a character fully (ie: delete and rebuild) you will lose your faction badge and rank.
Ideally ill fix this one day by writing ranks to the db.
Until such happens, be sure to get a DM to witness your rank before you rebuild, or ask an admin to backup your faction badge info before you rebuild.
Only this way we can be sure that a person is the rank they say they are to give a quick re-promotion.
