As the site grows and member's trustworthiness becomes clear, different levels of access and abilities will be permitted. There are (or will be) two new User Groups introduced. These user groups will allow higher number of PM's to be stored, ability to email members, mass PM's, larger albums, signatures, blah, blah, blah.
The first new user group will be "Founding Members". This group is comprised of any member who joined before September of 2011 and who are active in the forums, and who have more than 40 posts.
The second new group will be "Trustee". This group is comprised of members who joined after Sept. 2011, are active in the forum, have made substantial contributions (quantity not taken into consideration), and have displayed a general attitude of selflessness. As time goes on, members of this group can be added and members can be merged with the founders group.
There will be different incentive based award levels associated with these groups in the future also.
Our site will begin experiencing growth that at times, will seem unmanageable. Many of the same simple questions will be asked over and over by different members. It will be very easy to become irritated when this happens and I only ask that you try to be aware that you were in the same position once too. Nobody is obligated to do anything here, but any assistance you offer will not go unnoticed.
