We don't support giving special ranks or privileges out to members. I guess the best way I can describe it is that we want everyone to be equal here and while we greatly love and appreciate all the hard work everyone's been doing to bring players to the site, rewards like this would just cause problems. After they're released people often start changing their whole game play experience to get the award and they end up not enjoying the game because rather than making videos because it's something they enjoy they are doing it to get an award.
Later on then we'd also have to make rules onto what is consider worthy of the rank and what is not so we'd be either making it not fair for those newer to making videos, or we'd be giving it to everyone who makes a video and the rank wouldn't really mean anything.
It's kind of like reputation points on sites, while it's intended to be a good thing, it often just pushes the idea that one player is better than another and we just don't want that here. We want all our players to be treated equally and fairly.
This ties into why we don't offer special sections or in game rewards for our donors.
