The two sub forums not open to the public are the ones with the lock next to it.
Staff - Which is basically where we talk about mod issues. Also site upgrades.
Media - To limit distribution of media sharing.
In practice there is very little difference between the different levels. Those that progress, are given progressively more mod rights. (Edit posts, move threads etc).
We don’t need one, as we are almost all regulars in here, coming over from TIA. Over time, if more new people join us, we might consider the usefulness of such a sub-forum.
Sorry not been able to implement the changes. I thought I would have lots of time these last few weeks but turns out it has been the opposite ! Basically, as my boss resigned meaning I am now doing his work as well
What I will do during the season is implement some progressive changes. Like chat, twitter integration, fingerprint recognition, new themes and more.
