It was something I started on the test version of the forum for me to try to set permissions on the new board software.
So Pit Crew was born. It's some kind of a group without special abilities but it's an appreciation group for those who are being motivated and enthousiastic about our community that they started long term software programming projects for it.
So this is some form of acknowledgement for this so these people that have helped to shape the community trough their software or support have a 'badge'
The group is closed and administrators will add people to it when
- you are vocal and present in the community for a long time
- having supposrted people in the comunity in a very frequent manner
- wrote a big software project that became helpful for users in the community
