Jin Posted September 11, 2013 Share Posted September 11, 2013 (edited) The benefits of each rank is expanding. Six total moderators and four administrators, I think they can handle this much. Edited September 11, 2013 by Jin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raflesia Posted September 22, 2013 Share Posted September 22, 2013 Granting sponsors this ability will also give them access to unlock their threads. We don't want that. I have been searching for a hook to patch this, but havn't found one yet, unfortunately. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peter Posted September 22, 2013 Share Posted September 22, 2013 How do you feel as a ex-staff I can open my own thread close and hide it? I'm special. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have been searching for a hook to patch this, but havn't found one yet, unfortunately. We don't you want them to unlock their threads? Say that they want to temporarily close a gold selling thread, then re open it at a later time? They can use their ability to unlock the thread. I know that this can be abused, that's why if there is any form of abuse, infractions can be handed out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
idontbot Posted September 26, 2013 Share Posted September 26, 2013 I support this. As long as the sponsor can't go back and re-open their thread, no real harm can come from it. Besides, you guys did contribute quite a hefty sum of money! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LiquidMetal Posted October 6, 2013 Share Posted October 6, 2013 I can assure you that locking threads isn't a burden to staff, if anything they don't have enough to do. No support. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anaesthetic Posted October 8, 2013 Share Posted October 8, 2013 You shouldn't have forums permission just because you have the cash to spend on sponsor. No support. Why not? It saves the staff time and it couldn't possibly do any harm. This. I fee like ANYONE should have ability to lock own threads and change own thread titles. No harm can be done, and it saves mods time and effort for more important matters. Support. I don't see any harm in people locking their own threads.

Yugod Posted October 8, 2013 Share Posted October 8, 2013 (edited) I voted yes. Since no offense, but the staff we currently have can't handle it all.. Its just to many users and to little staff that is on parttime (due to work etc etc etc). I can assure you that locking threads isn't a burden to staff, if anything they don't have enough to do. No support. So not true, they HAVE quite a bit to do. But IF they actually DO it is a different question. I see a few staff members VERY active and doing a VERY nice job. However there are still threads that havent been locked... Or are posted in the wrong section etc etc etc. Edited October 8, 2013 by Yugod Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
