Introduction
The Hack Forums Ub3r upgrade is one of the second and final upgrades that members used to be able to achieve on their account, with the exceptions of the Mentor, Staff and Administrators positions. The Ub3r upgrade was an automated process which could have been started by any member who met the stated requirements.
This upgrade was added to the site on the 21st of December, 2009, and has remained ever since, however, since June, 2018, it is no longer attainable and has been replaced by r00t.
History
The benefits of upgrading to the Ub3r status are as follows:
- All L33t features.
- You are able to junk one of your threads every 24 hours.
- You are able to give out reputation from +3 to -3.
- You are able to have a maximum of 2500 private messages.
- Max Post Length setting is 18,000 characters
- Automatic Sapphire of Ub3r.
- Can view the banned member page, the 24h negative-reputation log page, the amount of posts a member has per section, the reputations given per member, the warnings (and reason) a member currently has and the current stickies around the forum.
- Special username color.
- Special ‘User Star’ color.
- Able to view members who are appearing offline.
- Can open and close their own threads.
- Special Userbar.
- Special Ub3r-Only sections.
- Can track Private Messages to see if they have been opened.
- Access to Trust Scan
- Access to Country Lock
Requirements
In an effort to reduce the amount of Ub3r applications and to make the group even more difficult to apply for, Omniscient set the following requirements for a user to apply for Ub3r:
- Must have at least 250 posts.
- Must have at least 25 reputation.
- Must be a member for at least 60 days.
- If denied, said user cannot apply again for 90 days (3 months, give or take).
Even if an Ub3r applicant passes all these requirements, they are still subject to a personal account review from Omniscient.
Current Status
Ub3r can no longer be achieved by users and has been replaced by r00t.
Conditions of Upgrading
- Successfully passed all the requirements
- Not to abuse the Reputation feature.
- An Ub3r upgrade can only be gifted to another user by another Ub3r.
- You must use real information.
- You are not allowed to refund/chargeback the payment, or your account will be closed and your personal information used in purchasing the upgrade disclosed.
Removal of Ub3r
When some members have done something which the administration team does not feel represents the Ub3r group in a positive manner, they may remove the user from the Ub3r group, returning them to the L33t group. When this happens they are stripped of the latter abilities (including userbar & name color) and only have the abilities of a L33t member. Some members have been allowed to upgrade to Ub3r again, and some have not.
If a member is demoted to L33t and they have over the 1500 Private Messages allocated with the L33t upgrade, they are unable to accept any more PM's until their box is cleared.
