Board overhaul is imminent.
New user levels coming soon:
-10: Full KoS - User has been identified as a user on the KoS List, and has been banned. -9: Name KoS - User is a new user who shares their name or part of their name with a KoS user. Their account has therefore been banned. -8: User KoS - User has been determined to be a user on the KoS List, and has been banned. -7: KoS - User is KoSed. -6: Closed - User has closed their account, and cannot post messages. -5: Pending Closure - User has requested their account be closed. It will happen upon approval. -4: IP Banned - User's IP has been banned for malicious intent. -3: Usermap Axed - All accounts using the user's IP have been banned. -2: Blocked: User is underage or threatened suicide. Until proving they aren't suicidal or underage, they remain blocked. -1: Banned - User is banned. 0: Suspended - User is suspended. 1: Timed Suspension - User is suspended until further notice. 2: Locked - Locked to prevent abuse. 3: Warned Level 2 - User is restricted in what they post. 4: Warned Level 1 - User is restricted in what they can post, but can still access all boards. 5: Purgatory - Cannot post messages, can view all boards. 6: Negative Karma - Restricted in posting. Be careful, or you'll get banned.
That's all, the other levels remain the same for now.
Also, a new user level: Administrator-In-Training, is coming. I'm going to be training SwordMaster13X to be co-admin.

Some more things:
A) Karma on the boards is not like it is on GameFAQs. To determine your karma, use this formula:
Moderated Messages/Active Messages Posted.
However, if you have 0 Moderated Messages, your karma is just your AMP. For now, your karma = your AMP.
B) Split List. Some boards will be split. The social topics will be moved to a social board, while the on-topic threads get moved to a general board. The main board will be renamed to "[insert name here] - Split", and a sticky will be created linking to the other boards in the split list on every board, including the Split List one.
Among these will be Roleplaying and Fanfiction, which hasn't been created, and Mario. The Legend of Zelda will be linked to Zelda Games *Social*. This will take effect ASAP.
C) Contests will soon begin, and the first will be Best Game of 1979. We'll proceed forward with "Best Game of..." to the present day, doing one a week.
D) The Poll of the Day may be abolished. I'm having a hard time updating daily. E) New game boards will be added eventually.

56: Board Moderator - Moderator assigned to one particular board. 57: Veteran Board Moderator - Board-specific moderator with experience. 58: Lead Board Moderator - Board-specific moderator, leader of his or her board's moderation team.
These are additional user levels.

Is there a reason you need seventy-seven different user levels?

I can do more in general, like assign certain privileges to only those of a certain user level and above, and I want to try to use many different names and be as big as possible.

A karma system has been integrated, but you must award it and deduct it, not earn it.

We finally added a board for every system.

Here's an FAQ for the new boards layout.
Q: Do we have karma yet? A: Yes. All users have been given karma for every post (or in sword's case, for every day spent on the boards). For every day you're online, you get one karma by default. You can gain or lose additional karma.
I add the daily karma. If I mod you, you WILL lose the amount of karma I've determined.
NKL - No Karma Loss 3KL - Notification, 3 karma loss 10KL - Warning, 10 karma loss
I will deduct a varying amount of karma based on anything else: Held, Purgatory, Timed Suspension, Suspension.
We'll add a dispute system soon, as well.
Q: Are there any private boards yet? A: Yes. Cheesy Beef Rings, owned by fish, is our first Private Board.
