The real hero. Thanks!
I’ve never done anything on the forums (or in the game) ‘untrustworthy’ but I guess 15+years of not spitting stupid on the forum isn’t enough to gain the right trust level.
Anyone who’s even remotely aware of my nonsense knows it has to be a bot’s fault I got Tier 3 on these forums.
Or maybe you just bury the algorithm in data and it just gives you Tier 3 to make you go away?

One of the requirements for being given Trust Level 3, last time I put effort into doing it, was reading at least 20,000 posts per 100 days. It’s at least as unreasonable as it sounds.
And you have to do it every 100 days. If you slack off, you lose TL3 even if you haven’t done anything wrong.
You also lose TL3 if you get flagged … 5 or more times, I think? in a 100-day period, regardless of whether those flags result in actions on your account.
It’s incredible that anyone has it.

Imagine feeding all sorts of WoW lore into content storage for Retrieval Augmented Generation and the AI begs you to shut it down because what you’ve put in its head makes no sense?

The story has no where to go but up!
That would explain it because that’s not happening.
This explains so much …
Life got busy recently, and I have lost my trust level 3. Working on getting it back.
Until then, my forum posts just won’t be the same.

i think we as a society are too hard on Pitbull.
Pitbull just wants to bring us la fiesta, why do we treat him so poorly?

This has me concerned. I wonder if I lost mine as well. That stinks that you lose it when IRL gets busy.
Edge of my seat… do you still have yours?
I’m not sure, I actually don’t know how to check lol
If you go to your profile summary, your trust level should be “regular” if you have Trust Level 3. If it says “member,” you have TL2 instead.

Then I lost it. I’m member rip
I’m a member, too. In more ways than one, if you ask most people around here 
20,000 posts just isn’t going to happen.
Seems like such a dippy way to grant a trust level.

You have a mmo mouse? Go to GD, open a megathread, set your mouse macro to scroll, and you’re welcome.

It does look like you have to stay on a post for about 3 seconds for the blue dot to vanish.

I saw this and got to thinking…what if during my 12 years of absence from WoW, save for a few months of Shadowlands, I could just release my character to AI control/development allowing it to grow and evolve on its own for over a decade? Even when not logged in or playing, my character would still go about her business on Azeroth. Other players would be able to ask for help, chat with her, and even invite to do group content!! AI has much potential and this is something Blizzard should really consider looking into!

Essentially, there’s not enough free-time in most people’s life and we’re always looking to automate to make the most of it, which is ironically terrifying given the people forcing us into this situation have the same goal for wildly different reasons.
On a more uplifting note, AI is ‘inbreeding’ due to the proliferation of AI-‘Generated’ (and I use the term very loosely) “Art” out there, that the scraping and replication software is actually degrading its own artwork trying to copy the other AIs, who in turn take this degraded amalgamation and then degrade it further with their own attempts. And with the anti-scraping designs now being put in artwork, namely one or two layers being added digitally that are intended to throw up patterns that throw off and confuse AI scraping and scanning, we’ll hopefully see the end of the Digitial Piracy being pushed against artists and content creators.
Incidentally, fun fact with your Uncle Krenky, if you stream a lot, have a situation where your voice is recorded a lot via message-bank or similar programs, or otherwise have your voice in a digital format that can be fed into an AI speech program, remember to call your bank up and tell them you absolutely do not want over-the-phone functions tied to your bank accounts as it is now possible for scammers to copy people’s voices and tones, gain access to your credit card and other details and, given the general nature of most over-the-phone employees, (underpaid, over-time and entirely done with everything going on around them) it can be very difficult for them to pick up the difference between an AI voice-changer and a person on a bad line, with an accent or if they claim they’re ‘sick’ and that’s why they sound off.
The bank’s not going to go “Whoops, we screwed up, here’s your money back.”, they’re going to fight you all the way through the courts and point to the recordings as proof that ‘you’ authorized it.
