Since Nobody Checks Announcements... ...I've recently been promoted to site admin, and we're going through some changes right now to test features and help better the site.
So I guess I'll update you all on what's been changed (nothing is set in stone yet, we're still monitoring everything to be sure it works for people). Reputation:
Reputation has now been updated to where regular members will not be able to see who has praised/smited them. In order to see who has praised/smited you, you would have to be a moderator, or chip in $10 to HHU in order to become a Supporter. I may be re-instituting the option to purchase this ability in the Skrilla Menu in the next week or so, but the ability to be anonymous should make smite-wars a bit more fun.
Also, you may now rep 15 times in a day. Your rep power is worth 7% of your overall reputation, and you must hit 5 people in your praise/smite spread before you can hit someone again. Skrilla:
Banked skrilla now collects an interest of 2% instead of 1.5%. I'm currently thinking of making it 5% interest and doing the interest payment every 48 hours instead of every 24, so it equates to a little more, just, you won't get it EVERY single day.
I will also be adjusting how much skrilla you make for posting new threads/replying/getting replies/etc. User Profiles:
You now have User Notes as well as Visitor Messages. User Notes have a little less restriction than Visitor Messages if you want to leave something a little longer than the 1000 character limit that VM's have.
You can also see 9 friends in your friends' list opposed to the 6 you could see before.
Shoutbox:
I've adjusted the time to a 12-hour display rather than military 24-hour time.
You've got the ability to click a button to see the smilies in the shoutbox to use them in there now.
Users can now use as many as 10 smilies in a single chat opposed to the limit of 5 from before. Skrilla Menu:
You can now purchase daily and weekly lottery tickets in the Skrilla Menu in order to try and win skrilla in a different way. Moderators:
Stillz and Dareason are currently new Supermods.
Youth Authority was demoted to just moderate the Utopia Emporium and GFX Sections.
5th was removed as an S-Mod.
Genesis was removed as an S-Mod.
Legion was removed as an S-Mod.
Del Playa Ent was removed of his modship.
Malines was removed from modship. Permissions:
Moderators and Supporters have had permissions fixed. I will be addressing these in another thread once I finally get them all completely sorted it. I will also be adjusting (improving) regular members permissions, and I will notify you of those changes as well.
