I personally think the rank should be kept but with 0 perms and pretty much be the same as registered user instead only for people who were at one point in the community.
I also think people who get banned / kicked out shouldnāt be given the rank cause they didnāt really āretireā by choice.
There are a lot of toxic retireds who just come here to troll and talk shit and cause problems but there also are members who act the same way. The rank shouldnāt be completey gone but definitely shouldnāt have any special perms, just a way to distinguish between people who signed up and people who were in the community.
looks like we're just dead bodies then lmao
So why would someone who willingly leaves the community be entitled to anything special? When leaving the community itās your choice and you should be aware what you are giving up. If losing the ability to post on LoAās and in the shoutbox is really that important to you then maybe you would reconsider. If Retired is pretty much member with less involvement and responsibility then who would want to be member?
No one has answered my question. Why the hell does it matter if they have these things?
Might increase our members if we were to remove a rank that practically has the same privileges around member. Won't be guaranteed but a consideration to take into account.
highkey doesn't answer your question either but tyvmThey aren't equal to member. Members get to look at even more parts of the forums, gets the benefit of the doubt in a vague he said/she said situation, and are given a platform in the meetings (I'm pretty sure)
I just don't understand why people have an issue with this. The only difference between them being retired and them not being retired is that they can use the Network Chat and the LOA, which is barely any extra "power" than a random ass person who wanders into EgN and makes an account for shits and giggles.
Why is that so much power to warrant removing the rank all together?
I feel like I'm bringing up good points but that I'm being completely ignored by people who are on the other side of the coin. I want to understand these things but people are just agreeing with each other that it should be removed and ignoring my questions
Why does retired have too much power?
Why can't we just not count them as members and keep the rank?
Where is the "toxicity and trolling" that I haven't seen?
Why does the "toxicity and trolling" put the rank at jeopardy? Why can't this "toxicity and trolling" be dealt with individually?
