It isn't exactly rejected but this is kind of like skipping the new scratcher status suggestion, which is rejected and has a lot of reasons why this should be rejected as well.
8.2 Add a rank above Scratcher or allow users to skip the New Scratcher status
There are three ranks: New Scratcher, Scratcher, and Scratch Team. The only reason the New Scratcher rank exists is to prevent spam, and since it only takes a few weeks to become a Scratcher, bullying and separation are rather minimal. Similarly, the Scratch Team rank exists so users know who is on the Scratch Team; generally, Scratch Team members do not brag about the Scratch Team rank. In contrast, there may be division in the community between Scratchers and those with a higher rank, which could also lead to bragging and bullying. This also includes a “verified Scratcher” status where well-known Scratchers get a special symbol next to their name.

again, this won't cause any spam, as to do this, you will have to have an unbanned account that has already waited 5 days and made 100 posts, so it would be easier for spammers to just make a new account, wait 5 days and then spam, like they would have to now.

these “conditions” are way too strict. I'd suggest toning down the post count required a bit, or else there's gonna be only a few people who would even be able to meet this criteria

A decent game https://scratch.mit.edu/projects/985905568/

but, as i have said multiple times in this thread, it would be easier for trolls to do what they have to do currently and create an account and wait for the 5 days, rather than creating an account, waiting 5 days, then making 100 posts, then making a troll account.

this is mainly for when active forumers want to create accounts. many people who would be wanting to use this feature would have 100+ posts already.
