So if a community is type 3 (only members can post or comment), and a member that had posts and comments in the communities loses his membership his future posts/comments will be muted but his previous posts/comments will remain visible.
In this case, what happens if someone has already been currently muted in a community and therefore all their old and previous content has been greyed out affecting their visibility under the current rules?
With all these new changes in community Types that you are specifying, will they regain their visibility or will they continue to remain hidden?
Good question ! They will remain hidden. The muted role is more important than everything else.
Oh! I see. Although not exactly the answer I was expecting. LoL
That's interesting, why do you think that ?
Basically the more precise a ruling the more rules it overrides:
global community rules < user role < post mute
Well, I was expecting something like starting from scratch. That introducing new rules would revoke the old privileges to correct any previous whimsical wrongdoings previously committed by community owners, admins and moderators. };)
