I know this is a small improvement, but for groups with very strange Moderator names, it's hard to tell who has the power and who doesn't. It would be a simple option next to the other moderating features, and would allow for easy identification of members with power.

Maybe the group leader gets gold text?

I hope the Forum moderators and Bungie Staff don't take offence to wanting white and gold text. Just an idea.

That would be a cool addition.

If you don't got it, you want it. If you got it, you want more of it. Of course if you don't know what it is, it's hard to get any in the first place.

But then how would Ninja's look cool on AND off the forum?

Only nature can enslave man and only when the existence of each last entity is routed out and made to stand naked before him will he be properly suzerain of the earth."

I'm fine with the idea, in that I don't see any flaws with it. I don't think, however, that "to make who is a moderator/admin more obvious" is very good justification if the task requires a lot of work. If group leaders want it known who has what powers, they can make a thread listing all of the ranks, or a resource article with a list of moderators.

For the record, i'd piss my self silly if there was an Armatik action figure.

Mabian, the main forums can do that too, but for the obvious reason of members not reading the stickies, I think they use the current system.

But don't worry about this stuff too much, we're anxiously awaiting v3 of Bungie.net. Hopefully it'll be great.

Armatik.....I thought I knew of you from GIA, yes, hmmm.

Oh, and all you have to do is link Everything you say. Huzzah!

I don't see a point with it. Groups should have a resource, thread or news pin where the ranks are labeled and explained. It's unnecessary, although if text-color was aloud back in chapters, then you could designate colors for your mods.

The gold text is defiantly a bad idea. If/When Achronos posts in your group (he has access to all of them, and usually if he is in your group it's not a happy occasion <purely personal experience>) his gold text remains. That has a potential to be abused.

Myself and about 5 other people have thought of this. Custome colors for mods in groups is a good idea, but not original. It has been discussed many times.

Huh, I was not aware.

Well, gold text is out, but white text would be fine.

And for the Rescource reason, members usually don't read those, and with a gorup with 7+ moderators, it's hard to remember.

I like the idea, but I doubt that it will ever come to fruition. It just doesn't seem necessary. And if its not necessary, the Web Team (probably) won't bother with it.

Solution: make it necessary at all costs!

I would prefer custom colours and not just white or Gold. Whit would be too hard to see on the white background theme (forget what it's called, Mullins something or other) how ever colours would be pretty sweet.

Ya. Just we'd need another color for the 7th Column one...having just colors would be nice too.

I say colors for Security Roles is the best idea.

Web team! If you happen to be stalking around somewhere, consider this.. Looks like everyone would love this feature, not just a few.

That was either perfect or racist.

No signature found. Click here to change this.

I've always thought that was a good idea. I may not be able to have golden text on the public forums, but I can have them in my own group! It's like I'm almost halfway nearly 20% of an applicant for Bungie staff!

LET ME HAVE MY MOMENT, DAMMIT!

On a slightly more serious note, yes.

Maybe just have tags? You know, like the 'Member' tag we have here? This is coming from a group-o-phobe, btw.

Yes, but writing like this is bad. The modz don't like it.
From what I've heard...yes...I tried it one day, to see if it would make it white, and it did, but I never used it in teh open forums.

I think customizable colors for different ranks. Different colors, red, blue, white, black, (if it doesn't blend into the background,) and others. That'd be great.

I have to agree with you. That would be a great idea. Although I don't own a group, that would be a great addition to see that happen.
