I see a lot of member buttons with certain people, but half the buttons I don’t know what they mean, example VU Swat... the button sounds awesome! Like I want to be a swat member, but what does it mean?

VU contributer is common sense.

I was just curious if there’s a thread somewhere that lists all the buttons and what they mean. If not, could a thread be created in the new members forum so us newbies could learn about them? Probably a small not needed request, but I was curious.
 

KingPin!

Swat was recently bought in as a way to give members the ability to report faster for spam (without it you have a time delay to report)...they may well be additional access granted with the badge to “swat” spam at some point not sure in that bit?

most badges are just that ...some have additional features that grant them extra privileges

moderator, staff member, admin, VU vendor, swat challenge team have more privileges depending on where it is in the forum and what they want to do.

VU donator and Challenge Team have extra areas of the forum they can see

other than that as far as I’m aware they are to show different things like time on forum, media and other things, and number of posts

:)

hope that helps

very rarely will you see threads locked ...so if you think of anything else can always come back and ask :)

I'm so glad threads aren't locked often here. Something about that has always rubbed me the wrong way, like we're being censored or something (although I understand sometimes it's warranted).

Just another reason I love Vaping Underground!

Also, I had no idea there were extra thingies for donators. Where the heck do I find those? :)

nothing wrong with donors talking among themselves in that section with in the rules of course... i thing that section may see more activity as time progresses.

it is what it is ....people wanna donate they gonna donate for other reasons, just worth being open about it, ......:.it’s there, but not used much is where it’s at right now

So are there confirmed plans for that section?, what are they?

“We” and staff team discussed would be a more fitting description to use don’t you agree?

not looking for a fight was just answering a question as it stands right now, if there are plans ...great, all that was needed haha
