Hi folks

Can we please remember to add a badge to anyone who joins the org?   I just added a badge for Lysander as he was asking where the Pilots Lounger was as he could not see it!

Thank you.

Smilo?    I think it is just the game leader or forum admin by default, but I think we ought to have it for anyone with the ability to add members to the org, so I'd be all for giving it to you as well.    There's an Award Manager plugin we use on the forums, so you give the award, they get the badge and a script runs on the server every 15 mins or so that updates their forum permissions so they can see the appropriate topics.

I think we're a bit wierd (yeah, I know) simply because 3 of the 4 of us are Council, so we get the ability via our Forum Admin rights and kinda forget about them! :blush:

Smilo, any chance of adding Paul to the award manager permissions?

Sure,

Currently members get award permissions through their moderator status. At the moment there are no moderators as I'm going to make GL's moderators for their respective forums. I will be updating the moderators tomorrow so badge awarding privileges should be restored. I'll make Obsidian a mod for SC. I

The script is very out of date and doesn't work for many games including SC. It's got loads of redundant user groups and old games. Fixing it will be a fair bit of work which I'll not be able to do till Saturday.
