Add a New Section to the Rejected Suggestions Sticky: 22. Adding a Rank Above Scratcher

DaSpudLord

Many users want to add a rank above Scratcher rank that would have extra abilities and permissions. For example. And as you can see, people were quick to pick it apart. There are plenty of good reasons as to why this should not be implemented, yet for some reason this is still constantly suggested. And so far, I have seen no good arguments that circumvent the most common ones provided. So please add this to the rejected suggestions sticky-

22. Adding a Rank Above Scratcher
Scratch is not a place for people to worry about ranks. The New Scratcher rank only exists to filter spam, and since it only takes 2 weeks to get a promotion, bullying and separation is minimal. Additionally, this would divide the community between those who have a high rank and those who have a low rank, and there would be lots of bragging and bullying coming from users of higher ranks.

Or perhaps something like that (if you have a different idea as to what this should say, post it below and I might add it up here).

Or, at a very minimum, perhaps the ST could comment about their opinion on adding a third rank?

Oh, okay, thanks for clarifying that. I agree.

Not trying to be rude or argue or anything, but this isn't “many” people. This is MY post and MY post only, so you can't say it's “many” people. I find it really offensive for you to just target me. If you want attention, this isn't the way to do it. Scratch is supposed to be a helpful community. We can't just point fingers. For something to be on the rejected list it is supposed to have been asked a lot of times. I only suggested this once and you just decide to point at me and make me look dumb for it.

You aren't the only person who suggested it.

I am sure I am not the only person who suggested it, but all his links go to my post.

I wasn't pointing exclusively at you. I was also pointing at the many other people who suggested the same thing-

They don't all go to your thread. If you clicked on them instead of immediately assuming you would know that.

They are just being used as an example. There are lot's of ones out there that are exacty what they're talking about. (I suggested this once too, when I was VERY new.)

Support and BUMP. Been suggested many times and should be there. Also, while we're on the topic, you should be REQUIRED to read stickies before making a post.

Bump, this needs to stay alive.

I believe there are suggestions for that, you could do a search for one and bump it up.
