mowafi3m and all others,
I believe the classification is the least important thing in forum. This is one of the numberous question to the forum and I believe it is only imoportant wheather you are VIP, MOD, regular or non-regular member - period. Don't waste your time on those kind of questions (this goes to all, not only to mowafi3m - we recieved like a million similar questions)
A1:
maybe the scale of the points to reach some membership is raised or... This is really not important, wheather you are a Pro, Semi-pro, Active or I-don't-know-what... Importatnt is that you are VIP or not - by being a VIP you have access to some sections that can't access regular members.
(digression: you don't have to become Professional Engineer to be chosen as one of VIPs - you have to have good activity and you have to help others - we don't care about post count too much when upgrading someone to VIP, rather we DO care about the quality of posts
A2:
If you are living in Croatia - this is common thing - medals comes as they gone - nothing special. As Admin said, some plugins to the forum are removed - some of them are removed temporary, some of them will never come back...
A3:
same as A2
A4:
same as A3 ...colors would be back because we just have to have visual difference between our members.
I hope I found answers to your questions...
In my opinion (I said it few times) the less is sometimes (as it is in this case) better. The Thanks, Points and Medals are only the greed boosters - if you want to help someone, just help and ask for nothing. Maybe we'll need to open a new poll with statements like:
The forum needs this counter the most:
1) the thanks (agree/thanks)
2) the pointing system
3) medals
4) the thanks + medals
5) the points + medals
6) all
7) none
After this poll ends and after we'll count the votes and know what the people needs and we'll stick to it.
One more thing to know - this forum is young (since Dec 2008) so we need some time to tune it up.
With regards,
Grunf
