  3. Many of you are going to have some questions while others are likely to be upset with some of these changes so allow me to address what I expect to be the most popular responses. Why the new groups? A better question would be: why not? We currently have nearly 500 members with 50 posts or more and roughly 125 users with 100+ posts. These new groups afford more access and better perks for being invested in our community. Why did you change the permissions for existing groups? Permissions were previously patterned around the three main user groups: Newbie, Member, and Advanced Member. To make room for these two new groups, we had to readjust some permissions in a way that not only made sense but made it a worthwhile endeavor to earn a promotion to these new groups. But why did you reduce the daily download cap for Newbies? Three downloads alone is quite generous given that you're not required to make a post, add a profile photo, or do, well, anything on our site. It may even be reduced further in the future because I want to reward users who make an effort to improve the community by contributing to discussion, support, or feedback. I already have X number of posts, why haven't I been upgraded yet? As soon as you make your next post, the system will automatically promote you to the appropriate user group. Why do these restrictions exist at all? To encourage activity and/or donations to improve your level of access. Sure, there are ways to circumvent these restrictions if you're savvy enough but when caught (and in most cases you will be), you'll be banned from the community. It's about respect, more than anything. Why such a big increase in posts required to make a file request? This is a trade-off. Rather than increasing the number of posts required to reach Member, I simply upped the requirement for file requests to 50 posts (ala Advanced Member). In theory, this should help protect the users who are willing to assume the risk to fulfill these requests. An individual with 50 posts in our community is much less likely to be someone who spammed their way to 15 posts and are also much less likely to be a trap account. Will there be more groups in the future? We currently have five with the two new groups: Newbies, Members, Advanced Members, Elite Members, and Legendary. That's sufficient for the foreseeable future. I'll answer any additional questions as they are presented.

  4. Or you can use the menu manager; which makes it easier as it is a drag and drop feature.
