I agree with the removal of Discord. I know it was up for discussion for some time because of the gap it caused for the community. It initially scared the Hell out of me haha, but I understand now. P.S. That chatbox is a thing of beauty, excellent work Jeffrey.

I have to say that Jeffrey did a perfect job. Chatbox is beautifully arranged, every part! Let's just go ahead!

Lately there has been some confusion about various groups around the site, so I'm going to outline the perks / responsibilities of each group and who gets promoted to them. If you still have questions, feel free to ask in this thread. Administrator Administrators handle administrative tasks. Cliche, I know. We are responsible for managing the site and its team. Senior Moderator Senior Moderators are seasoned Moderators promoted to a transitional role between Moderator and Administrator and assist in overseeing the rest of the team. Senior Mods have limited ACP access and are able to issue account / IP bans, as well as lift them. Senior Moderators are also capable of making account changes when requested. Developer A group crucial to the continued success of WebFlake, Developers are responsible for overseeing technical aspects of our site such as troubleshooting site errors, modifying and creating apps/plugins, or assisting with general "coding". Designer Designers gain access to themes exclusively, no moderation abilities. Their responsibilities include enhancements to our layout, branding, etc. Moderator Moderators are the workhorses of WebFlake. Recruited primarily to handle the majority of the Staff team's workload, they handle everything from reports, to download approvals, and general moderation tasks. Moderators do not have ACP access and must forward any requests / reports requiring that amount of access to a Senior Mod or an Administrator. Junior Moderator Junior Mods are a unique group. They're essentially another transitional role between that of a member and a Moderator. Limited privileges with not a lot of responsibilities. Administration uses this rank to evaluate whether a member is a good fit for our Staff team. Do not misinterpret what I am saying here, as Junior Mods still have the ability to issue warnings, lock / pin threads, etc. They are still a member of the Staff team and are to be treated as such. Expert WebFlake is fortunate to have several users who are generous enough to share their knowledge with various platforms and programming languages. Often times, we will extend these users the opportunity to become a member of our Experts group to allow other members to identify them as trustworthy and helpful members of the community, particularly in our support forums. While not a moderator or a member of our Staff team this group does gain access to a few special privileges (such as moving topics and access to all boards) to assist them in providing efficient support to the community. Contributor Contributors are users who are committed to providing quality content to the community. We heavily screen any user we consider for this group as Contributors are able to bypass the file submission queue. We do not have any specific criteria for Contributors other than a respectable volume of quality submissions but we do evaluate a number of other variables. Frost, Snow, Blizzard, Vortex These are members of our four-tier donation system who have made or continue to make regular contributions to WebFlake's donation goals. Donators gain a myriad of perks such as substantially better download limits, profile songs, display name changes, profile features, and more. You can see a chart on our donation page - https://webflake.sx/donate. Immortal Our highest non-donator rank that includes all perks from previous ranks, including access to profile songs, no wait time on downloads while being able to download twenty files per day at 250 kbps. You'll need to stack up 1,000 content for this rank. Legend Legend is our first rank to gain access to animated profile photos, cover photos, and signatures. Legends are also able to download twelve files per day with a two-second wait time at 175 kbps. This group requires 500 content. Veteran At 150 content, you'll begin to distinguish yourself among the community. Veterans can download nine files per day with a ten-second wait time at 100 kbps, give seven reputation points per day, and have an inbox storage increase that doubles in size from the previous rank of Regular. Regular Once you have reached fifty (50) content, you'll be promoted to Regular and gain access to seven files per day with a fifteen-second wait time at 75 kbps, and six reputation points per day. Novice Novice is allotted five files per day with a twenty-second wait time at 60 kbps, and five reputation points per day. Novices also unlock access to use our Chatbox. This group requires 15 content to reach. Newbie Upon creating an account on WebFlake, you'll automatically be placed into our Newbie group which has the least access. Three files per day, thirty-second wait time for downloads, and a download speed cap of 50 kbps. Additionally, Newbies can only give three points of reputation per day.
