ooc very good suggestions gentlemen. Will ruminate upon all comments and pass the hat to determine # of levels, at moment thinking of 3-4 levels, ie General announcement to members, Commander & up, Cpt. & up, and nosebleed country, Commodore & up. However, simplicity maybe best to limit leaks, ie General announcements and nosebleed country, perks of reaching flag rank, hmmmm:)
