This plug-in allows users to self-promote themselves to a provided static set of "ranks" using money or experience. Administrators can also promote/demote and specifically assign any of the defined ranks to a user at any time without taking player money or experience.
A "rank" is defined as a group and you can have as many of them as you like. Each "rank" allows you to define the price, experience cost, display name of the rank and the required group it will be using.
PayRank also provides simple chat coloring and formatting that can be configured to each rank.
See Configuration for further details.
Uses Metrics for sending completely anonymous data to http://mcstats.org for usage tracking.
