VIP Access

VIP is Masquerade’s exclusive recognition tier — a curated group of members who elevate the ballroom through support, presence, or contribution. It exists to honor the people who help keep Masquerade thriving, intimate, and culturally rich.

VIP is not a staff role or moderation tool. It is a reward for those who meaningfully support the community through:

• Financial support

• Long-term engagement

• High-quality participation

• Positive cultural impact

This tier creates a deeper sense of belonging and offers a premium experience for members who shape the atmosphere and energy of the server.

The following groups always receive VIP access:

• Server Boosters

  • They financially support Masquerade and receive VIP as a built-in perk.

• Supporters (monthly patrons)

  • Active monthly supporters always retain VIP during their subscription period.

• Diamond Mask Wearers

  • The highest XP mask tier.

  • This recognizes long-term engagement, daily presence, and contribution across the server.

• All Staff Members

  • Every staff tier, from Curator to Admin, automatically has VIP access.

  • Staff should experience the server as members, not only from the staff suite.

Not every exceptional member fits neatly into “booster,” “supporter,” or “max-level.” For those individuals, the Admin Team may award Inner Circle — a special manual VIP role with the same permissions as VIP but granted at staff discretion.

This role does not outshine Boosters or Supporters. Its visual identity reflects the 🦋 sky-blue palette, distinct yet understated.

Inner Circle is a selective honor, reserved for members who elevate Masquerade’s culture through presence, charm, reliability, and meaningful contribution.

Inner Circle should only be granted to members who consistently demonstrate:

• Active, positive presence over time

• Consistent vault contributions, event participation, or Suite hosting

• Mature, respectful, drama-free behavior

• Masquerade-aligned energy (sensual, classy, welcoming)

• At least 60–90+ days of membership

• Zero disciplinary concerns

This role is not for “favorites.” It is for members who add value to Masquerade’s atmosphere.

• Members should not request VIP or Inner Circle.

• If asked, staff should explain:

  • “VIP is automatically awarded through boosting, supporting, or leveling, and manual VIP is not something given on request.”

• If a staff member believes someone deserves Inner Circle, they should bring it to the admin team for approval.
