&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;div&gt;In March 2012, [[Paradigm]] implemented a new rank structure for all members. The system has an RPG-style fantasy theme, in which new members choose a path (based on their preferred style of gameplay) and advance through the ranks by earning points. Points are associated with in-game and in-site achievements and milestones. Some points are earned through special competitions and events, and all points are associated with a unique medal displayed within the [[Boxcar]] forums. Paradigm currently has over 30 earnable medals.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
At present, only [[bravado]] and [[FlAmEo]] have acheved the rank of Hero.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Paradigm Culture==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Paradigm prides itself in standing up for its principles at any cost. When up against a superior force, Paradigm has been known to use unconventional tactics such as [[AB]] and [[Spy Operations|spy op]] [[First Strike|first strikes]]. The members of Paradigm enjoy the scrappy, underdog reputation that is frequently associated with the alliance. Paradigm is known for not backing down when provoked. One of the most important events in Paradigm's history was the perpetual, seemingly suicidal war waged against [[Reservoir Dogs]] when that alliance was dominating the [[Earth 2025]] Alliance server through unapologetic cheating. Though other alliances have acted similarly, Paradigm is the only surviving alliance to wage such a war.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Because its leaders maintain an environment focused on the community rather than external politics, Paradigm boasts that it is the most fun alliance. According to the latest data posted by [[Pangaea]], Paradigm's has the most active member forums on [[Boxcar|Boxcar Hosting]].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Member Rank Structure==&lt;br /&gt;
{{Main|Paradigm Rank Structure}}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Paradigm has the most elaborate internal rank system of any other Earth alliance. The current system features an RPG-style of 'leveling' through the ranks by collecting medals earned through milestones and competitions both in-game and in-site. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Leadership Structure==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Paradigm has an oligarchical leadership structure composed of one or more Directors administering the Overlord Council, a group of past and present heads who work together to steer the alliance. [[Detmer|Sir Detmer]] was the first Director of Paradigm after implementing the current system. Detmer maintained Paradigm's historically autocratic style of organization, which was previously manifested as a President presiding over the Senate.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Paradigm has a War Council composed of members and leaders who share the responsibilities of strategic planning and running [[War chat|warchats]]. &lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;

==Modern Day==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The modern day Paradigm alliance prides itself in standing up for its principles at any cost.  Paradigm boasts that it is the most fun alliance because the leaders do not fetter the alliance with antiquated politics and allow the players to play how they want and to play stress free.  Paradigm is currently recovering from an all-time low in membership, caused in large part by our previous website being unexpectedly shut down and losing access to hundreds of previous members.&lt;br /&gt;
