Member Ranks
You may have noticed members with different colored names. Colored names are given to members of a certain status. There are many different colors, which cater for the variety of ranks that we hold.
If you are asking how to become one of these members (other than Warned or Banned, of course), here's the guidelines that we use to determine who is deserving of the rank.
- User must post well informed replies/topics
- User must not spam
- User is helpful to other forum members
- User always embeds pictures in their topics
- User is kind to others
- User has been a long standing member
- User does not flame others
- User makes a dedicated effort to make members feel welcome
- Above all do NOT ask for it. If you do we will not consider you.
The two exceptions are Respected and Premium. You receive Respected when the staff decides that you are famous around the Halo community. Premium is only able to be got by having two featured maps made by you.
The Loyal member rank is given to members have have stood out from the rest. These members are helpful, active and show dedication to Forge Hub's success. These members are rewarded with a purple name and access to the 'Hub Pub' forum.

As spam has become a problem on our forums, an executive decision has been made to give select Premiums and Loyals the power to moderate the map boards and off topic. This is a temporary measure and the Guardians will be retired and reinstated as necessary.

If the players name is a pink color, this player has received a Warned status. The warning status is given to members who have broken a rule, but not one serious enough to result in a ban.
If the players name is like above, but has a strikethrough, this player has been banned from the forums. The player has severely broken a Forge Hub rule(s) and has been punished accordingly. He has received the Banned title, as well, until his ban period is over.
Infractions are given by the Staff, for if you do something against the rules. If you get three infractions, you will be put into Warned status, and five or more will result in Banned status until your ban time is over, after which you will be put back into Warned. Read the rules to avoid receiving infractions. In particular, avoid spamming, double posting, bumping, insulting other members, and bad language.
