Time to game the system

I get what you’re saying but I was talking about the new bookmark button to the left of the reply button not bookmarking using browser bookmarks.

I know, but it’s functionally the same thing.

[Weili-wyrmrest-accord (Weili)]

Wow you actually have to scroll all the way to the bottom to reply?? I’m on mobile so maybe I’m missing something…

No, just look to your right and use the “Reply” button there at any time. Took me a bit to figure that one out.

Have a like.

Edit: saw you were on mobile; this was on mobile too, at least it was on my iPad last night

I wasn’t even aware that they were doing trust levels on here?

Is this true?

[Crazyirish-aerie-peak (Crazyirish)]

I literally scrolled all the way to the bottom and saw that I could have just clicked reply and gotten there a lot faster than scrolling.

Trust Levels

Trust levels are a participation system on the forums. The more you post, like, reply, read, and visit the forums, the more you work your way to a higher trust level. Increased Trust levels grant additional privileges. Everyone who is new starts off at Trust Level 0 but will quickly climb by reading and visiting the forums within their first few days.

TRUST LEVEL 0

Trust level 0 users cannot:

• Flag posts
• Post more than 3 topics
• Post more than 10 replies

TRUST LEVEL 1

Get to trust level 1 by…

• Entering at least 5 topics
• Reading at least 30 posts
• Spend a total of 10 minutes reading posts

Users at trust level 1 can…

• Post unlimited topics and replies
• Edit wiki posts (more on Wiki Posts Below)
• Flag posts

TRUST LEVEL 2

Get to trust level 2 by…

• Visiting at least 15 days, not sequentially
• Casting at least 1 like
• Receiving at least 1 like
• Replying to at least 3 different topics
• Entering at least 20 topics
• Reading at least 100 posts
• Spend a total of 60 minutes reading posts

Users at trust level 2 can…

• Create links and video embeds to trusted websites like Blizzard websites, YouTube, or Twitch
• Have an increased “like” count.

TRUST LEVEL 3

Get to trust level 3 by…

• Must have visited at least 50% of last 100 days
• Must have replied to at least 10 different topics
• Of topics created in the last 100 days, must have viewed 500 topics
• Of posts created in the last 100 days, must have read 20,000 posts (both starting posts and replies)
• Must have received 20 likes, and given 30 likes.
• Must not have received more than 5 spam or offensive flags (with unique posts and unique users for each, confirmed by a moderator)
• Must not have been suspended (including forum suspensions or in-game account actions of any Blizzard game)

Trust Level 3 users can

• Create Wiki Posts (more on that below)
• Post animated gifs, images, compatible video embeds, and links to any website

For regular users, even if you are Trust Level 3 on the Overwatch, Heroes of the Storm, or BlizzCon forums, your forum stats and trust level will be different here.

Oh I see. I just assumed that was how you quoted people.

These forums are dumb. They try to act smart but they are in fact, dumb.

I did the same thing last night.

[Sinndün-trollbane]

I approve of this post

[Onawhim-azjolnerub]

Goodness, the requirements for the leveling seems like a job! Entering at least 5 topics? And they’re going to time how long you spend reading posts? But I suppose if you spend any time on the forums you will meet these requirements. I don’t think in the past 13 years I’ve ever “entered a topic” so I’ll probably stay at my trusty level 0 and wear the crown proudly

[Kurston-kul-tiras (Kurston)]

What an interesting topic OP, so thoughtful!

[Elae-nagrand (Elae)]

How do you see which trust level you are at??

[Kurston-kul-tiras (Kurston)]

Good question? Not sure yet.

[Elae-nagrand (Elae)]

Well that’s silly if you don’t know where you are at.

[Sinndün-trollbane]

From what I’ve read so far, you don’t. The various “perks” just show up in your tool bars or some madness like that, lol

[Elae-nagrand (Elae)]

Well that’s silly.

Posting in a mad sploits thread.

[Onawhim-azjolnerub]

So they expect you to keep track of how many minutes you’ve read the forums, how many days and what you’ve posted and where? People are going to be having spreadsheets just to keep track … can’t wait to see the first “why am I not at level 2 when I list tasks completed here?”

Finding out your trust level

Since I’ve been seeing this question quite a bit on here, here’s the method of figuring it out.

Finding your profile

There is several ways to find it. Click on your avatar in the upper right corner and then click on your character name. <a href="https://i.imgur.com/AozXojL.jpg" rel="nofollow noopener">https://i.imgur.com/AozXojL.jpg</a> Left-click on your name on any post, click on “view activity”.

Go into your profile page, remove anything after your name-realm…

DEAR GOD, is there no way for me to skip all the way to the latest page on mobile?! I just had to scroll SO FAR TO GET TO THE LATEST POSTS
