Right now when people are promoted from wise guy to made man it happens right away when the cl clicks a button. What i would like is for the crewmember to also be given a choice in the promotion. Like maybe have it send them a personal saying 'your cl wants to promote you (accept) (decline)' kinda of like with an oc invite only for the made man promotion what does everyone think? |

Why wouldn't you want to be promoted? Surely, if you wanted to stay at Wise guy for things like graverobbing, you could have told your leader? |

Things like this can be easily role played. I had a CL once that created a whole back alley thread, which detailed the ceremony and what qualified the Wise Guy to become a made man. What he had achieved, what the CL valued in them and eventually, invited the rest of the soldatos to come and congratulate their new associate. That was the experience I was looking for in a mafia game. |

Although not exactly a big deal to have to click accept, I don't really see the need for it, to be honest. I would make a request to your crew leader, prior to nearing MM, to not be up for promotion. I've done this for one reason or another in the past, it works quite well, I think. |

Too often the CL forgets (so they say) there was an agreement to remain a wise guy for grave robbing purposes. |

The most important feature on this game is social interaction, with every new button we put in, it removes a little more social interaction, so we need to weigh the gain from the loss and honestly, I think this is something that is best done in a conversation with your family heads rather than a button press, and no, I've never heard of run-on sentences. |

You can request they put a note on you, which is something they can do. The CL, and the RHM/LHM can see it in the crew page, that you do not wish to be up for promotion, or whatever. |

I was thinking about something for quite a long time now... Those promotions between Made and Don are coming too fast... We might need to space the days requirement a lil bit and maybe even add some ranks... |

| Lowlowlife, just because a promotion is there does not mean a leader has to promote the person. You can hold a member back from Capo or Boss or Consig just as easily as you can hold someone back from Made. It's up to the leader in the end and should remain that way. There was a time there were "min times" for the ranks way back when and people were still just as speedy. What new ranks do you propose? | |

| The social interaction is by far one of the most important aspects of the game to me. What Geno said is my favorite part, a whole grand "ceremony" made of it rather than a button pressed and a "grats" message. Once upon a time o was a CL and back then we did our promotions in the coffee shops. You invited everyone into the room, and role played out the whole ceremony. To me that was a big things that signified an important move forward. Squishy has done a bang up job on this site, it runs smoothly, he takes concerns and does something about them, but he has tried to retain the human element as much as possible. Like him, I think adding another button to click would be too mechanical and would lead away from the social interaction this site is based on. | |
