Re: Groups, permissions and access
Uh.............

Can you put the "VIP member" title for Blue members instead?

It's a bit confusing.

No changes were made to the VIP members group.

These changes are not to make your life harder on the forum but only to give the forum some type of structure and organization. It will also help you do more and participate more if you want to get more features and it could help your status and image on the forums.

To know who is who, you will soon see the color variation for each group under who is online area on the bottom of the forum.
Enjoy

Re: Groups, permissions and access
I tested with one of the test accounts and I am not getting any errors or experiencing any problems. What exactly are you getting when you try to post?

Re: Groups, permissions and access
Issues related to the "can't post" have been fixed. Your post was going through but it was sending it to the moderators before appearing and that has been fixed.

Re: Groups, permissions and access
Slight change in some permission and promotions of members from New member to Junior member > Senior member.

Now, you need 1000 posts to be a junior member, 2000 for senior member status... may sound like high numbers but it is do-able.

Also considering no ads for moderators and very little (a banner perhaps) for senior members and junior members. That should give you more a chance and motivation to post more in order to get to junior and senior member status.

Re: Groups, permissions and access
New theme deployed, now the forum looks almost like its parent site, sinodefence.com.

Any issues, comments? Post 'em here.

I like it, it feels more organised. Also I like how now there is an actual link to the main site. It was sort of strange having a forum for sinodefence, yet not having any actual link back to the main sinodefence website.
