Split off the ability to "Archive in Marketplace" from the "Configure avatar items" group role permission

I’d like to request that the ability to Archive avatar items from Marketplace be split off from the “Configure avatar items” group role permission, and be given its own designated permission.

As an UGC Marketplace creator, I would like to make use of the ability to designate permissions to Create and Configure avatar items to other users in my group. However, the “Configure avatar items” role permission is very dangerous, because it also allows users to Archive avatar items from the Marketplace.


Once an item is archived in Marketplace, it cannot be unarchived or otherwise restored, and can no longer be made available for sale in the Marketplace. If a user with this role permission in a group had their account compromised or otherwise abused this ability, they could wipe out hundreds or thousands of dollars in future revenue per item, and there would be no recourse for the community owner. Designating this ability to another separate role permission would completely mitigate this risk and give creators precise control over who has the ability to archive items within their community stores.

Heavily agree on this, even though this feature is locked behind a 6 month wait until you can archive an item, i can see how this would be completely disastrous
