FAQ: Everything you need to know about forum 'activity, account ranks and merit.
I wanted to know the capabilities of these ranks and positions. If I say more specifically, I would like to know the difference between moderators, staff, and DT. These 3 position holds much influence in the forum. I want to know the extent of these positions. And who holds the power to ban a user? As far as I know, moderators are in charge of different boards for spam and illegal activities and reporting them and deleting them. I don't know what the staff does, maybe they check the reports and ban them. As for DT they are the most trusted members of the forum. Do they hold the same powers? Like banning somebody? What are their limits? Can a DT be staff or moderator and vice versa. As for the rest of the ranks, I know enough.
Admins: no need to explain and there are two admins: theymos and Cyrus. The head admin is theymos.
Global moderators: they are more powerful than staffs as with a global moderator role, they can manage the forum globally while staffs only are capable of boards they are assigned in and are responsible for moderating those boards.
Staffs: explains above. Some staffs can moderate different boards but they must get assignments from forum admins to moderate boards that are not their local boards.
DT members: they don't need to be admins, global moderators or staffs to be DT members.
Default trust changes are what currently applying for forum DT system.
