It'll most likely be restricted to the official faction leaders, though it's more of a tool for leaders to use anyways in terms of usage.
Perhaps making them the same colour as our leader usernames would be good?
That's hex #6699FF I believe.

Not sure what's the difference from just naming the thread appropriately.
Faction Name - Information
Faction Name - Recruitment
Faction Name - Message Dump
Faction Name - Whatever.
That's easy to do, does not rely on prefixes that can be buggy or disappear one day.

Naming them here works. I'll check back in a few hours and read up on all of the suggestions.

What I meant is that it is possible to do without prefixes by simply naming thread the way faction wants. Sometimes admin intervention is unnecessary and counter-productive by making community lazy.

The forums don't work like that. It needs to be predefined. Otherwise, i'd be alright with giving people that ability. MyBB is an awful engine.
Completely misread the above post. - Adding prefixes in isn't a bad idea. If people want it, we'll see about making accommodations. Ideally it isn't a bad idea to name them properly. Although at the bottom of a page with prefixes, people can 'sort' by these tags. Displaying all of the threads with that tag up at the top. The sorting mechanic is probably the most beneficial.

[Information]
[Role Call]
[Recruitment]
[Communications]
(Lyths Colours look cool)
I honestly think that everyone should be able to use these, not only Faction Leaders since Faction Leaders have their own forum to use and organise how they want where as unofficial factions all share the same forum which can make things pretty cluttered and things can get lost easily. Limit their usage to the Official and Unofficial Faction forums though.

Y'know, on another forum I frequent, we just use the search function.

Could we also get a [Lore] tag for us to mark our lore resources too?

As I suggested in the Mod chat, instead of changing the names, actually have subforums.
You click the Unofficial faction subforum, and you 3 forums in there:
- INFO PAGE
- RECRUITMENT
- INTERNAL COMMS (MD's, inRP Rosters, Data bases, etc)
