Ranks of GBAtemp

[67birdman]

Just wanted to know the ranks of the forum, and the amounts of posts needed to reach
Thanks

If you're banned, it doesn't nccessarily mean that you are banned for ever. Rockstar was banned but was then unbanned for "Good behaviour" on IRC.

Generally speaking and in 99% of cases banning an account is the final step we take, and it is forever. I wont comment on Rockstars particular case because I wasn't forum staff at the time, but I will say that him being unbanned had nothing to do with his behaviour on IRC.

Im only really responding because I don't want people thinking that if they get banned they can come on the chat, suck up, and expect to be unbanned for it.

Aww I wish the special ranks were still used xD

A tad late, but I would still like to comment on this. As p1ngpong already said, you're mistaken. Rockstar was a special case, but being banned usually means you're banned forever. You need to have done something big to get banned, therefore it is very unlikely anyone would be unbanned after they've done such a thing.

People that might get a chance to come back are in the Suspended group (which at the moment only contains Jdbye IIRC). Note the might.

So... Jdbye MIGHT come back, right?

Those that are suspended... are able to come back... I think.

I kind of wish I had some sort of special duty. I miss having that power since I closed my own homebrew news site a while back.

Edit: Oh.... I have 5 ribbons.

Wow, one post and this thread goes crazy (LIKE ME AHAHHHA)

If there were still special ranks I would've wanted to be GBAtemp Insane Ape.

There is such a thing as an indefinite suspension.

"Jdbye" ain't coming back.

Honestly, why is there even a Suspended group? People in there seem to never get unsuspended and people we actually suspend usually don't land in that group

I've made that same point several times.

And Nathan, there are several other members that are also Suspended, not just Jdbye.

Yeah, I know that (heck, I was suspended once

), but the only one that's actually in the group is him. Makes no sense to me either.

And who are these people then?

Look at me I've been here a couple of months and I only have 1 medal or whatever you call it

That's good to know.

It's not about how long you've been here, it's how many posts you make.

There are two points to having a suspended group for those who are curious about it. Firstly with a regular suspension there is no way for other people to see that you are suspended, this makes it visible for all. And secondly we have to set a time limit on a regular suspension, but by moving someone to the suspended group we dont have to worry about the suspension expiring.

Could we maybe get more ranks and new medals?

There has been only one man worthy of that title.

You are not him.

I know its not exactly needed, but new medals/ranks/ribbons would look kind of nice
