The link to the main forum rules in this thread, under the "Respect Fellow Members" rule, needs to be updated so that it links to the new rules page.

Done.

Not to sound like a broken record, but I think all the sections with their own section specific rules need to have the link to the main site rules updated, such as Zelda Theory, the MD, Forum Games, etc.

Okay, done, I think. There was a quite a bit to edit. If I missed anything, let me know.

Few people have wanted Badge redesigns so I made a new template:

Template can be downloaded here.

Those look good, but can you make the admin and mod ones 180x32, and the others 32x32 (just the icon, no text)?

I think that would look awful.

That's the badge idea, Kitsu. I think Locke's idea works fine.

Misread. Didn't see the "just the icon, no text" part at first.

Ok so what exactly is wanted from all of this? Badge icons as well or just instead?

This post is the idea that's currently being discussed.

Those look good Term, good job!

I'm pretty sure that we want the Moderator, Administrator and Community Coordinator to stay as banners (180x32 as Locke said), looking like those you've made. The badges would just be 32x32 and only icon (shield for HN, sword for HK, book for AW etc). The rank name would appear as the mouse hovers over the icon.

I don't mean to be a *****, but why do I feel that Cassandra has gotten numerous name changes within a small amount of time? I thought it was one name change per 6 months? She was Peachy, then I think she went back to Cassandra (or I'm mistaken, and if so I apologize), and now she's Snow Queen. If I'm somehow mistaken, then please correct me.

Can we leave the banners at 35 px high? I don't want to do more recalibration for 3 measly pixels.

The first name change was to Peachy, then I had it reverted. Then, due to personal reasons, I had to change it to something else.

Perhaps it wasn't articulated well enough, but reversions we decided would be allowed within the 6 month period, however it would reset the 6 month wait. For example, UserA changes their username to "UserB" on June 1st, 2014. They would not be able to get a name change until December 1st, 2014. However, they get it reverted on August 1st, 2014. Now, they cannot get a name change until February 1st, 2015.

Snow Queen's recent name change did violate the 6 month rule, but only because she did it for personal reasons. To protect her own personal privacy, we agreed to allow her another name change.
