The "ranks" in the forums and elsewhere on the site are just for fun. If you have a paid account, your rank will be the same as your account level. Otherwise, your rank will be automatically determined by how many messages you have in the forums.
At this time, user groups are only used to determine permissions on the site. In the future, access to specific parts of the site may be limited based on user group membership.
In addition to user groups for the paid memberships described above, the following groups and group permissions will apply depending on your account registration and activation status:
| Guest (anonymous) |
Newly-registered (not activated) |
Registered user | Approved user | |
