Groups

[SanguineSon]

Hi all! I'm fairly new and was wondering if someone could clue me into what the "groups" mean. For example I'm apparently +FRATER DOMUS+. I'm guessing that means new but I really don't know and there was nothing in the help page. Also in the near future I might be writing some background articles for my own DIY chapters which I make for fun. If I was interested in putting any of these articles on B&C, how would I go about that? Thanks!

Well, the groups can essentially be considered a sort of "rank", although they work mostly laterally. +FRATER DOMUS+ is the regular user, and there are others for Moderators, Administrators, enforcers, guys who work for the Librarium, etc. For example, we are both +FRATER DOMUS+. Brother Tyler, on the other hand, one of the site administrators (grovel, grovel) is in the +++ADMINISTRATUM+++ group. Similarly, the famed Octavulg is in the +LEXICANIUM+ group, meaning he has a great hand in dealing with the Librarium and its articles. I hope that makes sense. Your group changes depending on whether you get some sort of position.

As for your DIY Chapters, the best place to go would be the LIBER ASTARTES sub-forum and read all the guides (Guide to DIYing and The Octaguide 2.0 are always the favorites), and then post your article like you would any other post. Of course, I strongly recommend you read the guides first.
