Forum:Weird usergroup

In Starcraft wiki i found usergroup named "Ninja". How did they get it in there? --Strongholdman 17:42, 8 February 2009 (UTC)


 * It's a special usergroup found in wikis with social profile tools, it doesn't actually do anything or grant any special privileges. The only reason it appears in Special:Listusers is because there it has the read userright assigned to it, you can read what each group can do here. Aaron Wright, a former wikia staff member from the NY team, said they had plans to have it do something someday, but as i recall, the team was pulled off of the social project and was completely focused on Wikia Search. As far as I know, Wikia has most social profile support "on hold", providing it doesn't cause any issues that prevent the wiki from working as intended (i.e. stable). Not sure what Wikia's plans are for social tools at the moment. -- 18:02, 8 February 2009 (UTC)
