Hey,
The Staff have discussed extremely thoroughly the idea of reworking the HKs. I want it to be made clear that this is not an HK decision, but a staff decision pertaining the future of a particular rank. This is something that is being seriously considered, but we do think there is value in hearing the community's opinion, as well as the opinions of the current HKs.
Here is the general idea:
Firstly, we would demote every Hylian Knight from their rank.
Secondly, with criteria that we outline, we would pick a few new Hylian Knights to represent the rank.
Thirdly, we would work together with these new Hylian Knights to rework the rank in the most efficient way possible, meeting these goals:
Many of the staff are of the belief at the moment that the HKs, despite improving their demotion and promotion system, are still very flawed. Many of us do not believe it is feasible to fix these issues without rebooting the rank. I would like to make this part very clear: This is not an HK decision. The HKs not being fully okay with this decision will not be the only thing that influences this decision. However, we are informing the entire community of this decision and allowing everyone to have their say.
None of this is set in stone, but I would like to make sure everyone knows that this is being seriously considered.
Thanks.

Thirdly, we would work together with these new Hylian Knights to rework the rank in the most efficient way possible, meeting these goals:
1. Have the community have more of a say.
2. Make the rank into more of a "reward" for consistently positive contributions than a rank.
3. Have the criteria for who can be promoted/who will be demoted make more sense and be more clear cut.
4. Rejuvenate the rank's activity level.
