Trust level on the forums?

How can you tell if someone is at trust level 3?
I know I am not because I have not read 20k post. It will be awhile for me.
Secondly, can you lose that trust level if someone does not like your post? Can you gain it back by reading 20k more post.
I am a confused moo-moo chasing my tail.

I don’t worry about it… been reading the WoW forums since their conception, and I am not trusted, so, meh.

When it comes to removing trust levels, there is a 5 strikes policy to make things less severe. A GM has as to step in, check your post and remove it if it goes against the forums laws.

The only exception to the rule is when you get suspended. If you get suspended, you automatically lose it all.

The trust level thing is just a weird thing in general. At least most comments don’t need a picture posted with them, but it could be frustrating when you do want one and can’t do it.

If you go to the link below you can see that I’m at trust level 2, It says: “True Trust Level 1” then on down it says “True Trust Level 2” but below that it says “False Trust Level 3”

Just change my name and realm to yours and you should be able to see where you are at.

T3 never ever. feels bad.

On the toon I usually post on, Snowslight, I was suspended for a week when I shouldn’t have been.

Snows still at trust level 2. Not sure what that means but there it is.

*I’m not sure what trust levels are, if they mean anything, if they’re even important. I’ve been on the forums since 2011. If Blizzard can’t figure out that I’m trustworthy by now, Idk what to tell them.
I also don’t care.

I guess trust levels pertain to being able to post pictures. hm. Odd.

At trust level 2 you can post you tube videos, Trust level 3 allows posting of gif images and direct links to other outside websites. (Internal Forum Web links can be linked)

There is talk I have read from the CM’s where they are talking about a forgiveness of some sort that you could obtain a higher trust level depending on the severity of what you did to get suspended but that hasn’t been determined on whether or not it will be initiated.

Ah, well I don’t need their trust levels then as I only come to talk, not post vids or pics or whatever.

I miss chat rooms. AOL was fun.

This isn’t true. You don’t lose what you gain. You just can’t gain it if you’ve been suspended. At least, no one I know who has had a new vacation has lost their levels.

I lost my trust level 3 for calling someone with limited reading comprehension a fool. Not joking. If you get reported and it passes you lose your trust level. So you better be ready to be on your best behaviour because from what I heard I can’t get it back

Once you have action taken on your account, or ever have, you get kicked out of the cool kids club.

In Blizzards world all humans are perfect and never make mistakes; if someone acted a certain way they are forever that way, there is no way to redeem a human, and that individual must forever be shuned.

So sayeth Blizzard, So shaleth Be!

A GM said you can redeem yourself. I don’t care about it as it’s a flawed system. I know a guy who calls people derogatory names and another who’s a stalker who have trust levels. At that point, it loses any meaning.

Six degrees of Kevin Bacon was also fun.
