I’m fairly sure it does. I mean I’ve been posting here for years, have thousands of posts, but I’m still only trust level 2. I can only assume because I’ve been suspended a couple of times.
So I’ve been posting for 6 months, have thousands of posts. Still can’t post images. Been banned once in that time, for 3 days. What else could be causing it?
you haven’t read 20k posts… go try scrolling through a megathread?
if you’ve tried that, and level 3 isn’t working for you within 24 hours, then it will be as a result of the moderation… but “read 20k posts” is a base requirement for level 3, and you’re only at 17k.
this was the only character i got TL3 on, and i downgraded to TL2 by having a different character get a 72 hour forum silence. only that offending character got a system message informing of the punishment, but all my forum alts got the system message when the silence was over
I don’t know if this means much but I just checked on this one and she is level 2 and my alt who has never posted is still 0.(in the json page or whatever it is called) So maybe it is individual.
each character has to grind up forum trust levels individually.
but if even one gets a forum disciplinary action (or one from in-game), all characters in the battlenet login can only reach trust level 2 at this moment.
i have four forum characters that are currently at Trust level 2 and many more at trust level 1. the characters i never switch to for forum posting are at trust level 0
as i replied above, this character had trust level 3 but lost it when i was misbehaving on a different character
