The powerlevels are, in order from -1 on up, Banned, Normal User, Local Moderator, Full Moderator, Administrator, and the not-so-often used powerlevel 4 for Owner.
You can swap things around a bit and add an extra powerlevel between Normal and LM if you need to have an approval system. Just be sure to change the rest of the code around it. ____________________ we're currently experiencing some technical difficulties |

powerlevels are dumb, make a system of groups with specific permission bits for each. Much more flexible. |

Which is just glorified powerlevels.
With more logical code. ____________________ we're currently experiencing some technical difficulties |

Posted by chungy agreed. power levels are not a very flexible idea unless you have a rigid staff hierarchy and that's all you'll ever want to have. (which is what this board has, but that's not what everyone wants out of board software) ____________________ Zelda Hacking Forum hobbies: delectatio morosa |

Posted by Grey MegatronNot really, there's quite a few differences. A typical powerlevel system is generally easier to program, but a group-based one is way more flexible. Group-based systems are generally more popular as they're more flexible, and is useful in cases where there are two groups who should only be able to do totally two different things. That's impossible to do on a powerlevel-based system (without nasty hacks at least). It's not much of a problem on Acmlm board due to the way our staff works and how we run stuff... but it can be a problem on stuff like file systems.  ____________________ AIM: gamefreak1337, MSN: Emil_sim@spray.se, XMPP: ailure@xmpp.kafuka.org

Example of "group power system" thing being better than current powerlevel system please ____________________ |

When you want to provide a forum that only certain people can use. Obvious example is the romhacker approval system we used to have. In that case you'd just designate a new permission for that and for the users you wish to grant access check that flag. Sometimes people want a hidden forum no one else can see (say for a beta test of a rom hack or some other kind of project.)
Also might make banning more flexible. If you ban someone in our system, they lose all their power level (-1), but in a flag system you simply uncheck the "banned" flag and they're back to whatever permissions they had before (if so desired). Or consider if the board gets hacked and someone starts banning people. All their power levels will be at -1 and it will be a lot harder mess to clean up than if you had a permissions system. (It means they'd have to SQL inject and hack more than just a number, for one thing) ____________________ Zelda Hacking Forum hobbies: delectatio morosa |
