Why Gg Posted August 8, 2015 Report Share Posted August 8, 2015 (edited) I understand this suggestion has already been made, but it hasn't gotten enough attention.This is a list of ranks that are currently the same colour:Owner & Global AdminForum Admin & DeveloperGlobal Moderator & Ex-StaffServer Support & Super DonatorThat's pretty much it, don't give me no bs excuse of how it's shaded differently and it's lighter/darker than the other, it's still arguably the same colour... And it's not like we've run out of other colours to use for ranks...Also there are some ranks that not only don't make sense, but we really don't need, for example:Global Admin & AdministratorGlobal Moderator & ModeratorAren't they the same thing?EDIT: Global have more power on the forums, never mind that. Server Support - Server SupportGlobal Admin - Global AdminGlobal Moderator - Global ModeratorForum Admin - Forum AdminThat should neaten things up a little bit.

Castial Posted August 8, 2015 Report Share Posted August 8, 2015 I mean I can see the shade difference, but hey why not new colors = clear, concise and fun. For the global thing, there might be extended powers for the different titles, you never know. Such as "Global admin" further admin control panel access. Also it's more of a hierarchy type situation, like Yoobs can say Legend "you were talking all that shit while I was mod, but now who's a higher rank". Quote Link to comment

Okay we got the whole "Global" thing solved then, nvm. Edited August 8, 2015 by Why Gg Quote Link to comment
Castial Posted August 8, 2015 Report Share Posted August 8, 2015 (edited) No, I believe Global just implies you have the same rank in-game and on the forums. That's what I personally think it means, but if we've got "Forum Moderator" it should already imply you're a Mod on the forums, but not in-game... So obviously "Moderator" would mean both considering Legend is Admin on forums and in-game, yet has "Administrator" rank.Like I said it's gotta be one of these three options, 1) They really do have more power, or 2) It's just strictly a hierarchy thing, scroll up for the funny comment involving Yoobs and Legend. 3) You're right it's a useless title. Just like Forum mods can advance to Forum admins, where they could potentially add new boards, solve forum issues if they're competent enough etc. Edit: Confirmed by Yoobs that global admins have more power on forums.

Why Gg Posted August 8, 2015 Author Report Share Posted August 8, 2015 Confirmed by Yoobs that global admins have more power on forums. I see...Colours should still change though. Quote Link to comment
Isaiah Posted August 8, 2015 Report Share Posted August 8, 2015 I agree I never understood the difference between Global Admin/Mod and Admin/Mod.Would suggest just making it one rank. If Yoobs wants to be the shot caller make him Head Admin so he's above Legend idc just stop making sloppy ranks. It's almost like every staff have a custom rank lol. Quote Link to comment
Zoradz Posted August 8, 2015 Report Share Posted August 8, 2015 Global admin 'apparently' has more powers/forum dev... Same situation for global mod and Moderator. I agree the colours should be changed/rearranged. Quote Link to comment
Yoobs Posted August 8, 2015 Report Share Posted August 8, 2015 Basically Global admin has forums dev permissions and admin ingame, global moderator has moderator permissions on the forums and moderator ingame but ingame Admin has just a bit higher permissions ingame and ingame moderator has moderator permissions ingame. I agree with color changes and i have tried to think about changes but im not sure what to go with to be honest but feel free to suggest? Quote Link to comment
