We have made some minor changes to clarify and simplify user titles for MacRumors staff and volunteers. Most now have one of the following user titles:
A couple of staff members have dual roles (for example, as both an administrator and editor), and this is indicated in their user titles.
Those with one of the above user titles followed by emeritus formerly held the position but no longer have the associated powers or responsibilities.
Members with the user titles macrumors Demi-God, macrumors Demi-Goddess and Contributor are not staff member or volunteers. They have paid for membership and as a partial thank-you we give them special user titles, access to a private forum, the ability to customize their profile page and photo album page, and ad-free viewing of the news pages and forums.
