Custom member groups

Edit Subject

How long is this going to take?
I need it now!!

WOW not looked on here for ages, and still the same. Shocking is all i can say........

Dear Webs.com,
We have all been waiting very patiently for this to be implemented and its now coming on for about a year for me wishing this feature would be made. We know it says 'The company has this under consideration'.

Could you please just drop us a reply here on what the lastest on this idea is.

Regards

Ben & Everyone Above.

This is one of the most suggested ideas of custom groups for the site and yet Webs.com makes no move to implement this and if they do they don't tell us. The closest we have gotten to a response from Webs.com is from Toby and them saying this is under consideration but that still is not a response from /webs.com Webs.com we want you to start participating in this discussion and tell us why this hasn't been implemented.

This doesn't need to be considered it needs to be planned. There needs too be the option to create your own custom members. As for example a ranking system where is someone gets a certain amount of posts then they get ranked up to a new member title. Also you should be able to promote people like we can now and have it stay. Also you should be able to make the restrictions of the member titles to be the same as a regular member just with a member title changed.

Lovin' the idea! Custom groups with custom accessibility permissions would be lovely!

This would also make sending e-mail blasts to specific members infinitely easier, which I'm just learning now is a bit tedious!

I think like a ranking system or group like you said would be great

Custom usergroups so i can have "Moderators" "Publishers" or any custom title that i can asign to any member.

also have colours for each member groups would be great.
like depending on post quality/quantity your will gain a colour to stand out in the community, making it an incentive to have a custom title and colour.

this would help ALL websites with forums and for the mainsites.
its such a simple yet important feature for a website wanting a community structure.

i hope a member of staff can advise at to what is going on with this request as you can see alot of people are requesting it.

Cheers

i need this could they do this any faster

Yes, I've been trying to figure this out forever!

I want to create members who are

1) Customers

2) Employees

3) Supervisors

PLEASE ADD THIS WEBS.COM!!!!!

I was an administrator on another forum where different member groups could be assigned, with settings for each member group. For example, a member would join and initially be a "limited member" until a certain post count within the forums, or until after a certain length of time, or both.

Having custom member groups meant we could give the members "ranks" and with each "rank" or member group came more privileges and abilities. One thing I would prefer is to be able to change members' message settings, as we're finding with our forums here that some people join for the sole purpose of spamming the boards by posting and messaging members with outside URLs.

With custom member groups and settings which allow administrators to change each group's settings and have the groups automatically upgrade to the next rank, this would all but eliminate one-time posters who join only to plug their sites or send spam messages to legitimate members...

I have actually been looking for other free sites that allow this, but not many other even allow 'Members' let alone different groups..

This is a great idea that I fully support.

You can assign members as either moderators, limited members, or Admin. But you cannot create your own groups. This would be a good idea though.
