We don't need the contributor and janitor levels if permissions are treated like a badge earned and not a level ranked up, it's deputizing and delegating functions so that Moderators aren't overwhelmed, and keeping the color system for permissions retains the structure we now have.</p><p>Also, this is my opinion, but I think that gaining such a permission should also invoke an upgrade to builder status. We've got 2 member level users with approval powers, which seems rather odd. We should bring them up to builder at least.</p> buehbueh /users/192105 tag:danbooru.me,2005:ForumPost/108912 2015-10-23T17:59:57-04:00 2015-10-23T18:01:52-04:00 <p>True, we could have purple for unlimited uploads and green for approve permissions like before. You don't usually have the approve permisson without obtaining unlimited uploads before that, so there shouldn't be any confusion about it.</p> MagicalAsparagus /users/313336 tag:danbooru.me,2005:ForumPost/108911 2015-10-23T17:54:19-04:00 2015-10-23T17:54:19-04:00 <p>I wonder why that was done. Before it was really simple to see who can do what. Maybe the colors could show the abilities instead of the user level if builders, contibutors, approvers... are more or less the same level now?</p> Schrobby /users/254161 tag:danbooru.me,2005:ForumPost/108910 2015-10-23T16:35:57-04:00 2015-10-23T16:35:57-04:00 <blockquote> <p>tapnek said:</p> <p>The level of Janitor has some of the abilities Moderators have unlike Contributors which only have no upload limits.

Searching based on rank starts losing meaning when a primary defining feature is no longer tied to a rank.</p><p>edit: Also calling it overkill is a bit much, when it's the system that is becoming more complex, but yet not increasing then the complexity of the UI to match it.</p> NWF_Renim /users/13392 tag:danbooru.me,2005:ForumPost/108903 2015-10-23T14:53:38-04:00 2015-10-23T14:53:55-04:00 <blockquote> <p>NWF_Renim said:</p> <p>It might be nice if there was some means of knowing at a glance if a user has unrestricted uploads or approval privileges, without turning to their user profile.</p> </blockquote><blockquote> <p>tapnek said:</p> <p>How about a special symbol next the user's name for each permission?</p> </blockquote><p>Albert thinks that's overkill.
