Morning folks..

I was just a bit curious.. is there a list of all Ranks somewhere on Seibertron? By Rank Im referring to the name under a posters username.. for example right now Im a 'Combiner' and was previously a 'Vehicon'..

I know its just abit of fun and not a sign of power or anything like that, just wondered what other names will appear under my username..

One other thing I was curious about were all the different colours that Mods usernames appear in and what it means.

Thanks in advance for any help anyone gives :)

Regarding user ranks, I don't think there's a set list kept anywhere, but if I get really bored later I'll try to extrapolate something for you based on post counts of different users. Only if I'm REALLY bored. :P

And as for the moderator colours, each colour shows a different function. Bold red is for administrators, regular red is for news admins, gold/yellow is for news crew, green is for global moderators, and purple is for Heavy Metal War moderators. Some of us have functions outside of our coloured domain, but the main thrust of what each staff member does is reflected in their colour.

Thank you kindly Jeep? :)

I wouldnt have thought about looking around and trying to work it out myself.. heh..

Dont feel you have to compile a list for the likes of me, Ill probably do it out of curiousity myself one bored afternoon.

Thanks again though!

From time to time I have received PM's asking questions about various colors for our staff positions and how some of us have colors and some don't.
And tonight I had a PM asking why Getter showed up as a news mod (orange color). I checked the "groups" and noticed that a good bit of the staff did not have their correct user groups as their default.

Now it is fixed.

I for one welcome this new colour coding system. As you said in another thread on the same subject Cyber Bishop, this will eliminate any confusion when it comes to knowing which mod or who to contact for a given situation or question.
