***Moderation***
Administrator
The is only one administrator. The main admin does some of everything, but mostly handles the important things, along with decision making and thinking up new ideas.
Co-Administrator
They do some of everything, but they mostly handle the more important things. They help moderate but they leave that to the moderators if they are busy. They are pretty much just like the admin, but they don't have quite as much power.
Global Moderator
They are essentially the same as the moderators, but they are in charge of keeping the moderators in line and assigning the moderators a job. They moderator the entire forum and can also add new boards and categories. They are usually in charge of training apprentice mods.
Moderator
Moderators check for rule breakers and spammers, accept character profiles, and handle most any sort of member problem unless it is very serious. They usually only mod a specific category or boards. A global mod tells them what they will moderator.
Apprentice Moderator
An apprentice is someone who is new to the mod team. They will be taught by a global mod. Apprentice mods have less power than mods and will, as a strict rule, only be assigned to a few boards until they have proven themselves and graduated to Moderator status. They may not accept profiles.
***Specialty***
Graphics Designer
The graphics designer is responsible for creating the images for the forum. They create skins and images when a higher rank asks them too. They find new codes for the site when needed. They also moderator the forum, but have less moderation powers than a mod. They can accept profiles.
Advertising Team
The advertising team does most of the advertising for the site. They go to other forums and advertise and/or affiliate with them. They can moderator the forum, but have less power than a mod. They can accept profiles.
Newsletter Editor
They type up the newsletter. They are responsible for being up-to-date on the happenings at Vital Breath and to mention anything a higher rank asks them to in the newsletter. The admin will tell them who the winners of the "of the Month" awards are and they will announce it in the newsletter. They can moderator the forum, but have less power than a mod. They can accept profiles.
Mentor
Mentors are not actually staff, but they are very helpful. They teach new members how to role play, navigate the site, use site features, and learn the rules and other information about Vital Breath. They make info threads in the Newbie board. They may not accept profiles or do much of anything else. Unlike other positions, someone may be a Mentor, and another rank listed on this page at the same time.
