Thank you Eri <3

Well, all other flags are :place/country:, not :language:. You could think of Kurdistan as a place, not a state. :)
Native - :serbia:

Fluent - :uk: / :usa:

Moderate? - :sweden:  :italy:

Bits and pieces - :turkey:

atm? -              ^

Want to learn - pretty much anything, but mostly :latvia:, :greece:, Georgian, Modern Standard Arabic, Kalaallisut

Discussing it will go too far here. Let's say I had to prevent some fights in my class room about that matter, to call it a language rather than a place is safer.

A flag for Catalan language would be nice. Either that of the autonomous community of Catalonia, or that or Andorra?

Thank you in advance.

Edit: flag of Catalonia , flag of Andorra , both free of use.

Suggest anything that might need improving or snazzing up of any kind.  Different from bugs and fixes in that these aren't very important  :P

Here is what different staff groups can and can't do:

What a skald can do:
* Split threads into new topics
* Name new threads resulting from thread-splitting
* Edit any calendar event
* Merge threads
* Move threads to different boards.


What a skald can't do:
* Change or delete anyone's individual post
* Delete, lock, or unlock threads
* Sticky threads
* Add holidays to the calendar
* See or deal with anyone's PMs
* Ban/delete users
* Do major technical fixes

Skalds:
Curry
Para



What a moderator can do:
* Everything a skald can do
* Lock/unlock topics
* Sticky topics
* Delete posts
* Ban/delete users
* Issue warnings to users


What a moderator can't do:
* (Anything technical)
* Add holidays to the calendar
* Add those little country flags (or any kind of imagery)
* Work with bugs/downtime/whatever
* Change the news up there
* See or deal with anyone's PMs

Moderators:
Kjeks



What an admin can do:
* Everything a mod can do
* Create new boards
* Make things visible/invisible to guests
* Add flags/smileys
* Change the news up there
* Change your login username (not the display name, you can change this on your own in your profile)
* Technical things
* Add/remove holidays to the calendar
* Edit forum site code
* Database stuff

What an admin can't do:
* This mostly depends on the admin and what their coding abilities, etc. are

Admins:
Sunflower
Hushpiper
Eriaror
Feartheviolas

I've updated the list of staff abilities in the OP of this topic so they are more current.

Small but useful thing:
Instead of just a [1], there is now a fancy and a lot more noticeable little bubble displaying your unread PM count in the main menu, which also works on mobile!
