Difference between Registered & Members

[final kaoss]

Alright to get everyone up to par, anyone under 5 posts is a Leecher. After they hit 5 posts they will be promoted to a member (which after that they get the member button, can change user title and have links in sig) by a script that automatically updates user ranks once per hour.

New Forum Software means new rules. I have ditched vbulletin in favor of Xenforo on december 5, 2023. As such, Registered users will need at least 10 posts AND a reaction score of at least 5 to be promoted to the Members group. So now, only users that post content that their peers approve of will be bumped up into the Member group.

Users in the registered group are restricted in they cannot upload attachments, avatars, background pictures, use signatures etc. Getting promoted to Member removes many of these restrictions.

Users in the registered group must use 2FA, this restriction is removed once promoted to Member, this should in theory help to block more spammers.

Also I would like to note that posting to subforums which contains cheats are disabled for the current usergroups due to that area being restricted to posting cheats only. So, you may still browse those threads & leave reactions on said threads. With Xenforo 2.3 coming up, there will be anchors wherever headers are posted (typically near the top of those posts).

If you have any issues, you may use those anchors & post a thread about a issue with a cheat in the parent forum. Example of an anchor:

https://xenforo.com/community/threads/header-testing.220395/#-dracula-x-rondo-of-blood-play-as-maria

That was copy/pasted from this thread.

https://www.vgcheat.com/threads/castlevania-the-dracula-x-chronicles.212007/

So if you have any issues, once xenforo 2.3 comes out, the anchor above will look similar:

#-dracula-x-rondo-of-blood-play-as-maria

You'll be able to use the full url with the above anchor in the url: Since the parent forum for this game is Playstation portable, you would for example take that link and make a new thread here:

https://www.vgcheat.com/forums/playstation-portable-chat.60/

As for usergroups that will have permission to post threads/comments in cheat forums, I haven't made any decision on if I will or want to do that yet.

First and foremost; posts that are posted in the cheat codes/gameshark etc sections are moderated. These sections are strictly for posting cheats/guides only. These sections are moderated to keep out comments such as "thanks" "it works!" and so forth as these types of replies aren't cheats, please use the thumbs up/down feature for this. That being said, adding your own cheats, custom gamegenie/gameshark etc codes are allowed, they will fall into the moderation queue as mentioned to keep out irrelevant content though but yes, you are welcome to add your own codes to a existing thread. If you would like to give feedback on something, then please use the consoles chat forum for that and other discussions related to that console.

As a reminder to some users here, I'm going to give a refresher/update on some rules concerning gamehacking codes and cheat codes. If you see a thread or a post where the author wasn't attributed properly (and you are the originator of said code; do not report it if you are not the originator of the code or your account will have appropriate actions taken against it!), then click the report button and provide relevant information on who should be credited and provide an original source from a CMS, (website, blog, forum, etc) that has a proper timestamp. Point out which codes need attribution and to what username should be credited, your report will be examined and changes will be made where applicable.
