Combing through my social forum to clean it up, I looked through a few permissions and whatnot and noticed a few permissions that could be added to better manage a community.
Specifically, there are a few permissions that need expansion:
I suppose the thing to compare this to is how staff members can moderate the normal MassiveCraft forums, but only applying it to social forums. I'd like to think it's possible, since a forum owner only has elevated perms in their social forum and nowhere else.
The downside I could potentially see is that social forum owners or mods could delete threads on the social forum for no reason whatsoever. But at the same time, they can already remove players at will, and they own the social forum. And I don't expect there to be a lot of "abuse" cries coming form social forums, since their just player groups that people can leave and join as they wish.
Specifically, there are a few permissions that need expansion:
- Edit post by self
- Delete post by self
- Edit thread title by self
- deleting threads that no longer fit the social forum (aka, recycling a social forum into a different one)
- trying to update outdated thread lists created by OPs that have gone inactive.
- self-moderate social forums by removing threads that would violate massive rules
- Edit post by other
- Delete post by other
- Edit thread title by other
