Oh this is confirming my complaining.
Confirmed
Man that was way to offical for my taste.
People who 'cheat' to see the confessionals probbbbbably aren't what we're looking for in the next CK, just so you know.
I was beginning to think you guys would keep ignoring it :love:
Ok so the original design of the confessional forum was for it to be secret from the other contestants, but not from everyone else (since we are the audience). However with extra ranks like Former Staff and Site Staffers in this competition we cannot make that so (without messing even more with the user groups.)
For example, since Jojee is Former Staff I can't hide the forum from her without hiding it from the rest of the Former Staff, and I can't make it public to the FS group without making it public to her. I don't want to take those ranks away from you guys since I don't want you to be without those perks for the duration of this.
So right now the Confessional Forum acts just like Private Feedback, only yourself and staff can see it. It might become public at some point if we can figure out a good way how.
Figuring out a good way how JUST might put you closer to being Eyeson's next Cid's Knight!
well,
you could post a thread in general chat, asking anyone if they want to be able to watch the competition. Whoever signs up for that, could get their own custom title for the duration of this event. Because obviously, if they're not aware of the section they won't want to see it, and even if they are, a number of them won't look. So the only solution I see, would to be to make a thread informing them of it's existence, asking who wants to see it, and then giving them a title.
call them Cid's Knight Fan or something

Giving a
handicap veiwing
rank to all former staff or recognised members who aren't participating?
Or temporarily stripping participants of all previous user groups
edit:beat me to it :(
If you really wanted to you could make another user groups with the same name (eg two former staff groups) and just put the participants into the second formerstaff usergroup then make that group unable to see the forum so they keep their title. But that sounds hard. I dont know how many button clicks and keystrokes are involved in these user groups
Or we could just trust Jojee
Ban Jojee. Problem solved.
well if it's just Jojee, the simplest solution would actually be to take away the former staff title
Something to note: Only site staff and ourselves can see it....
But I believe Flying Mullet is also a Cid's Knight in Training, and he's currently site staff
THE JACKEL
This problem is simple. Create two new usergroups, one with the same privelages as former staff, but can't see the confession forum. It could even have the same former staff title. Then move the members who need adjusting to the appropriate group. (Jojee and Mullet)
Eh easiest way I see to make it work would be as others said to simply just remove the current people's titles so that permissions didn't get all screwy. That's the best solution I see that doesn't involve messing around and making things overly complicated and posing a threat to mess other things up in the process.
I still believe posting a thread is a good idea, because basically no one will even know about it otherwise. Some of the Cid's Knights in Training didn't even know this section existed until a link was posted in general chat.

Hey, since when can former staff not close their own threads?
Edit: O nvm, I still can ^_^ Just can't in the private feedback forum for some reason.
Edit2: Anyway, just leave my PM space alone ;)
