Not really sure I understand how adding new ranks would be unfair to current Officers in a guild. I know adding ranks will bring about its own set of problems, (how come he/she got this rank and I didn't, I out rank you, do what I say, etc.), but I've seen that in the game with just the Officer/Member ranks.

I think the addition of ranks would be a good way show appreciation to loyal members of a guild. Maybe something like:

Swabby: Rank upon entering a guild

Deckhand: Rank given after being active in a guild for a period of one month, does not receive any additional privileges.

Petty Officer: Rank given after being active in a guild for a period of two months and reaching notoriety level 15. Able to recruit new members, not able to eject members, not able to demote members below his/her rank.

Captain: Rank given after being active in a guild for a minimum of two months and reaching notoriety level 20. Able to recruit new members, able to promote members from Swabby to Deckhand, able to demote members below rank of Petty Officer, not able to eject members.

Commodore: Rank given after being active in a guild for a minimum of four months and reaching notoriety level 30. Able to recruit new members, able to promote members up to the rank of Petty Officer, able to demote any rank below Captain, able to eject any member below rank of Captain.

Admiral: Co-GM Rank. Chosen by the founding GM. Must be at least notoriety level 35. Able to perform all duties of the GM.

Those are only suggestions, ranks and their corresponding privileges would be set by Disney, the notoriety levels and time in guild requirements would be set by the individual GMs.
