How to find your current rank in the mafia: Take a look at your mafia profile. A mafia account can hold up to 2 ranks at the same time, both a primary rank and a secondary rank. When you first join to the mafia, you will only have 1 rank, your secondary rank. This will remain true till you earn a primary rank. Your secondary rank starts out as "civilian".

Here is a picture of someone who just joined the maifa.

How to increase your secondary rank:
  • login regularly
  • post when you login
  • attend events
  • participate in contests

How To increase your primary rank:
  • Obtain lower family primary ranks by spending medits in the medits shop on ranks
  • For high level primary ranks, apply for positions by contacting myself and or Datamine over Discord
  • @Datamine
    promotes moderators within the higher ranks
  • @Don Von Alpha Dom
    promotes capo's within the higher ranks
  • Applicants must have a high secondary rank before we will consider them for an inner family primary rank

Terms to Know:

    • Inner Family - inner family primary ranks come with power and responsibilities to the family
    • Lower Family - lower family primary ranks come with zero power, but are an important stepping stone when representing the family

Show us a skill we can use, or be willing to learn a skill. I have an extremely long list of responsibilities that I have to take care of every day in order to keep the family running. If any of your skills can take some of that off of my plate .... then it's possible to receive a capo primary role, which is part of the main inner team working along side me.

The easiest way to earn karma is to sell products or services on the market. Karma is mostly used to rate sellers.

How would attending events, and participating in contests help increase my secondary rank? I thought the only way to do that was to increase my total post count steadily over time.

And which of the ranks in the medit shop would be considered lower family primary ranks? And what is the current highest of them at the present time?

Also regarding the above quote, I am interested in knowing what skills you're looking for. Can you let me know somehow? Perhaps there are some I am able to learn in order to eventually provide some assistance. :)

Contests and events normally involve posting, which increases your rank. Prizes often include medals and medits, which decorate your profile. A well decorated profile helps increase the chances of being considered for higher secondary rank. It technically helps both your primary and secondary rank. On top of that, medits can be spent on certain group accesses, giving you access to more areas of the site, more areas where you can post.

Can you go into more detail about Programmers and Researchers? Like what languages, and what kind of stuff usually being programmed? As for researchers, more info overall, like what are the topics of focus, etc would be great

Programmers:
Web - JavaScript, HTML, CSS, PHP
Desktop - currently C# and Python; in the past we've also used Visual Basic and C++
Mobile - we don't currently have any mobile programmers, would love to have some though

Researchers:
Our researchers use a combination of IMVU discussions, IMVU classic forums backups, google, youtube, academic journals, and books purchased off of Amazon. Most of the research revolves around IMVU, white hat hacking (cyber security), reverse engineering, and e-commerce.
