I am noticing some changes to the WoM Forums. I would like to know what they are, so I can be familiar with them. I'm always active on these forums here. I saw that now the online thing next to your name, is now under your name. And how instead of having no test necy to your name if you are a regular member, it now has "WoM Member". I also noticed some new Sub-Forums.

 And, congratulations to Mellcor for winning the Skin Contest. Mou'll look all awesomer now. I just said this here becuase I didnt feel like making a new forum topic :/

I found something else. I've been looking at some of the Forum topics. I've been noticing that
some people who's rank is not the same as their badge. like, shaygrl's
rank is Contributor, but her badge is normal. And how Fisheatsbear's badge is Contributor, but his rank is WoM Member. IDK if its supposed to be like this or not. I just wanted to say, see if it is a problem, that it could be looked at.

Not a problem

Well, this is not a problem. Please refer to www.worldofminecraft.com/ranks.

It'll show you that it's more different than the actual WoM game. Forum ranking and WoM ranking are totally different systems. Hope this helps,

help is here

About the contributor badge, on the really old version of the forum, you would get a grey bar for contributor, but not any more, so if you see anybody with the grey bar, that means they got it a long time ago.

For fisheatsbear, i can only assume that he used to have contributor but it was lost in some update along the way.

Also I noticed that some things on the forum now give a cool yellow loading circle instead of just waiting for the page to load, such as searching users' names on the search page, or when commenting.

(And you missed an important staff member, luckily he doesn't come here often)

EDIT: Oh, and about the new sub-forum, moujave announced that on the main page of the site, it was made for all of the "news" topics that people kept making

Moujave was playing with the

Moujave was playing with the forums to help topics which had many replies so that the don't get squished and the text goes flying elsewhere. Mou also added titles under your username to help it squish less. Jak is right about the contributor badge as fisheatsbear was an old staff member.

Basically we don't do badges anymore unless for special reason :)


Needs more Moujave and H4X, definitely more Triddin with a side of Shnaw and some Deadly and hey, whats a party without PartyM!

Wrong... You automatically get the contributor badge depending on your userpoints...
