New Rank

I propose a new rank for Scratchers to earn. (an excuse for new perks and less annoyances) This rank would be called Elder Scratcher. The benefits of this rank over Scratcher are:

30 sec Forum Post limit

Extra Cloud Variables (say, 10?)

Larger Project Size Limit

Larger About Me and What I am Working On sections

The ability to choose premade wallpapers for your profile page as well as the ability to ignore users (mute them for only you, manageable on your Settings page)

These abilities and a new rank would reduce annoyances for older Scratchers as well as further distinguish the older and more skilled users from the rest.

No support. People can brag and people can be sad about the rank.

Can't someone do that about Scratcher? Please do try to, instead of shooting this down, realize the scope of what I want.

I haven't decided whether I'm support or no support. How would you earn this rank? Would it a be a feature that would get abused?

Earning this rank would be not very different from earning Scratcher. As for abuse, I doubt it. (unless someone purposely TRIES to crash one's Flash.

How would it be earned though? Projects? How long they've been on Scratch?

As the name implies, a year or more is required (counting by ACTIVITY), as well as 3 mid quality projects.

How can something detect how good a project is? Or does someone have to check everyone's projects and rate them, or it will be determined by amount of views/loves/favourites.

no support. bragging would abound. basically saying you're better. new scratcher is worse then normal, scratcher is normal, and scratch team is the higher order.

On a similar suggestion, I wrote:

So you're telling me I'm a grandma?

No support, the New Scratcher status was here to reduce spam and inappropriate behavior.

Is bragging not against the rules?

Yes. And Elder Scratchers would reside between Scratcher and ST. The ST are moderators. Few can hope to get that rank, but the ST has to promise not to brag. Make bragging against the rules (i believe it already is) and problem solved.

No support
It is determined by how many scripts there are, how long they are, how well they have behaved in the comments and forums, and likely having a featured project will be a criteria.

It's not respectful

No support, the ranks purpose were to prevent spam. And the new rank would bring bragging and stuff, and the purpose of Scratch is to learn how to code, not get the best rank.

The purpose of scratch is not to make art. The purpose of scratch is not to get your project viewed. See what I mean? Your argument is flawed. And since bragging is disrespectful, mean, and sometimes spammy, it's banned. Stop worrying about bragging.

Well, you don't need to worry about managing this topic because it's a duplicate of this one over here.

It is not. I started this with a lower post limit because it annoyed me.
