Congratulations people. I hope we will continue working together to our mutual benefit.
For those who are not in the list - do not worry or be sad ! Your way to the ranks of TR Modders is not closed. You can find new forum called [url=http://tamriel-rebuilt.org/old_forum/viewforum.php?f=203]Showcase[/url] in the forum list. The purpose of the forum, as you can read from its rules, is to show your work to, eventually, be elected to the ranks of TR Modder. So use it ! Show us how wrong we were not to add you to the first wave.
More specific instructions about what to do if you don't already have something to show but still want to apply will be added today or tomorrow.
Please ask al your questions concerning TR moddership here.
And Happy New Year everybody

Morgoth, we at least plan for TR modders to be able to participate in core decisionmaking much more than before. The most important thing with having a separate modder group is the simple matter of fact that only a small segment of all TR modders actually do work. We need to have it easier on management and having members claims something and then leave is a big problem. This should much reduce the effect, if not remove it altogether.
Also, Stalker forgot to mention that all current reviewers have been added to the TR modder group.
Er, not meaning to get off-topic, but when I first looked at the above post it said Stalker next to it, yet when I refreshed, it said Zephyr. Is that some sort of glitch? Anyhow, I would also like to say that I think Vholdrian, Rowan, and Nalzay should be promoted as well. They might be newbs, but Vholdrian and Rowan are excellent artists, and Nalzay has a very promising talent as a modeller. Just a suggestion.

Vholdrian and Rowan were also forgotten from the list by Stalker, although they were in it originally. They are in the list too, as I've added them now.
You can do that as long as the transitional period lasts; the goal is to also close claiming forums from others than TR Modders. When we're done with the transition, you have to become a TR modder first in order to claim.

What this basically means is that members will be presented options such as "Make an interior/exterior/book/music by the following specifications" so that it can be reviewed. There will be specifications for several types of ints/exts/etc and it's likely that they will be used in the mod if they're good. However, because there are no instructions yet, it's because we're not done with them and all this is subject to change.

what would happen if you already have a claim(s) and you don't have TR modder status. I've submitted 3 for review and i have another 2 WIP's. would the ppl who already have claims get ot keep them or get them revoked if they wern't finished??

This is exactly the problem I'm trying to solve now. I just revoked a whole bunch of claims due to the claimers being absent for over a month, with worst cases being absent for over a hundred days. The borderline cases are still there though, but I would be all for giving members with current claims a modder status, especially if they had claims already in reviewing. This has to be discussed with others though, which are yet to return from their new years parties.

Good concept art is important too. Especially when planning to make a whole new province (be it Skyrim or Hammerfell) for which a lot of new things will need to be modelled, from buildings to houseware to weapons and armors to clothings to fauna and flora.
I don't like the change, to be honest. Because members like me who have been here longer then most of the mods en admins can't follow the project anymore as they were used to. No offense to the current mods en admins, you have done waaaaay more then me and others and deserve the position. But I really feel left out. This has a reason, I haven't done anything in a year (well, small things, biggest be updating BoT), but still..
I may not be a honorary member, but it saddens me that I can't follow the project anymore the way I used to for over 2 years long. I can't even reply in the Finished Books section, although I was under the impression that I still updated BoT..

If you haven't even tried to apply to TR Modder status I don't see why's the hussle ? You haven't aplied, you aren't a modder, you can't post. Simple as that. If you have applied you are most likely to be promoted. It's the same as crying for not being able to post as a guest.
Oh and all people with active claims do apply soon because Claiming forums will be closed for public soon.
Can't you just prevent non-modders from claiming and posting in the claims forums? A lot of people like to follow progress even if they don't participate actively (I interpreted "closing" as making them unavailable for all us poor lurkers out there... or?).
I won't start a flame war, but in my humble opinion TR's attitude as an open project has gone straight to garbage bin.
I'll aply for the status of TR Modder, for the sake of finishing my two interior claims and keeping the List of Artifacts alive. Although I doubt TR is really going to use it. But maybe when TR starts with Hammerfell, you feel the need to add artifacts that Oblivion did not include.

There was a long discussion and everybody could have stated his\her opinion back than. The fact that you haven't stated yours in appropriate thread doesn't mean we need to start this discussion here.

Kasan please don't make it sound like you're making us a generous offer of applying. I really really hate this kind of attitude. I respect you and I really don't want my attitude towards you to change.

This once again proves that TR has not closed completly. We are accepting everybody who can help.

You still will be able to see the forums. Just not to post in them. The only completly closed forum off top of my head is Members DLs.
I'm sorry for starting a discussion. I see now that that discussion has already taken place and it was decided to close this project.
I really didn't intend to sound like someone that's full of himself. It was just my first reaction when I noticed I couldn't post anymore at my favorite spots.
I'm glad everything is settled now and I'll brush up my lore on Hammerfell so I can participate in the lore discussions again. Thanks for granting me the status of TR Modder.

HM are not getting a free ride. They put their time in as moderators and admins.
Honorary members are included for the advice they give. They aren't trouble members. These are former core members and they didn't get there from doing nothing. They all have qualities and experience that we consider helpful.
You can find them often in the admin forum giving advice on the direction of the project, though they don't have any official voting power.
