+--- Thread: [Policy Q] Downgrading from UB3R (/showthread.php?tid=5220404)
Downgrading from UB3R - Joy - Mar 30, 2016
So why do users who are sometimes downgraded by Omni from UB3R to L33T still have their Sapphire of UB3R award. Is it some kind of a mistake or is it supposed to stay?

I never seen this. Do you have anything that can back this up?
Also, it could probably be that omni forgets to remove the award?

I never seen someone downgrade O.o
I'm pretty sure you can just choose your visible usergroup via the userCP

Yes, i've seen a few people stripped of their ub3r ranks

Can you give a example? Like a user.

It has happened a few times, I seen people lose their Ub3r ranks, and got downgraded to L33T.

I know, I was replying to the other guy who said he has never seen it happen.

Clearly he must of violated some rule, that caused him to be RKO'ed and downgraded.
I do find this really funny too, wow.
"Signature
Rep F**cked and down-graded from UBER for a security breach."
^ And hes violating another rule considering he complaining about him being repkilled.

I mean technically they did still pay for their award.
but they just don't have the Ub3r abilities anymore.

But with that logic, they technically paid for the Ub3r rank too. 😉

the rank is a privilege that has benefits.
whereas the award, is just an award.
logic holds up.

I just didn't bother to remove his award. No great mystery.
