You guys really need to get on top of those tags on avatars, they're becoming messy and completely disorganised, I really feel bad for any new members coming into VGchartz because they are almost an inside joke rather than a way to actually tell peoples roles on the site.

Is there any of the ambassadors left doing that role? See Conegamer is marked as one but not been online in almost a year, has it been that long since someone paid any interest to the ambassador program as to review them? What is a "beta tester" surely any supporter should have that tag as well if it's referring to the website since they use the redesigned front page...

 

Even in this thread alone you have "Gay Triarchy" "Rueple" and "Backseat moderator" worked onto avatars do you guys honestly not see any way that a new user to the forum would be confused seeing these?

 

 

Also.... I was wrong to make this post in this thread, but felt it on topic to again the inside chuckle here at "as long as it confuses users to thinking X is doing Y role"

"You guys"? We're moderators, we have no power over that, it's the admins you want to be talking to in this situation, they're the ones that do all the coding and stuff, we just spam the "ban" button and swing our hammers around all day... 

You guys refers to anyone who has any degree of say in what happens on this site.

and when you say "it's the admins" You mean "Site Admins" not the other 3 user types which have admin in them, and not anyone who just drops "Fun Admin" onto their avatar image since that would be fun to do wouldn't it?

There's currently 12 different types of user on here according to the users filters, are you suggesting that only ioi, Jlauro, Trucks, Talon, Machina and Torillian are the ones tasked with sorting out which of those 12 labels go on every other user? When you factor in that ioi does not do that work, are there any of those other 5 who are also not doing the role? When it comes to Machina, Jlauro and based on the comments here Trucks that also means that 3 of the site admins.... are not actually moderators so they wouldn't be the people who get reports of users who are messing with those tags, in fact factoring out ioi as well that only means that 2 of the active Site Admins are on the same page as the sites moderators.

Do you personally think that system does not require streamlining of some type? Or can you not see how it baffling to understand and I'm even looking at it from the point of view of someone coming up on 10k posts here and it just makes fuck all sense to me, I pity new users but it seems that feeling isn't something which filters up through people running the site, a forum shouldn't require a tutorial on the 12 different ranks and who is actually in them or who you need to turn to for assistance.
