People theoretically can submit feature requests already at Support - Roblox but I doubt an engineer or anyone would look at it that way.
I’ve tried to contact DevRel members for my own feature requests but I’ve just been blanked out.
Yeah, people like @Crazedbrick1 has helped the community so much and is so active, yet he does not have this role.
It really never made any sense in the first place to block feature request from all users, but maybe they were trying to mitigate spam, or something. I’ve been wanting Feature Requests to be public for everyone for a long time now, and I don’t believe it will ever happen.
If we assume the only benefit of Regular is that you can post bug reports and feature requests, they should prioritize people who actually need this for Regular.
So if you are active in the community but you’ve never made any topic via Bug-Support (like the person you @), then it’s probably not necessary for them to get those abilities.
It’s worth noting that whilst I do agree there needs to be a new pathway opened for members to be able to file bug reports and submit feature requests, I disagree this should be granted to all members. With replies to bug reports being too often inappropriate (i.e. are comments which do not assist engineers and just add clutter), I feel that this would risk creating a mountain of improper bug reports and feature requests, which would make responding to reports and features more difficult.
I’ve noticed some people have used statistics and metrics on the forum as a basis for a promotion; this is a dangerous advisor for determining eligibility as it would cause people to game the system, decreasing productivity across the forum. The ability to report bugs and make feature requests should not be treated as a privilege, but rather something extended on an as-needed basis.
One of the issues that bothers me about this succession plan is the lack of information regarding how it will work. I feel like if the community was briefed on the model concept it would allow for debate and suggestions for how to improve.
If we were able to get a glimpse into the plans it would allow for quicker expedition and implementation.
But I agree with many that it shouldn’t be statistic based, but in order to automate it there has to be SOME METRIC(s) that it will need to evaluate for someone to be deemed promotable.
The lack of a stream-lined system to allow requesting features or even providing support to pre-existing requests is downright unacceptable.
I develop on Roblox too, I find functionality lacking, I got 3 feature requests just sitting in my Google Docs, but I can’t post them! There is just no way for me to do so.
To make matters worse, I can’t even give support for other feature requests! All I can do is just give them a like. What happens if I agree with one portion of a request but not another? What if I want to give my testimony and use-cases to a feature desperately needed? Where’s the freedom of opportunity and speech? What happened to the RESPECT THE COMMUNITY pillar?
Our only answer on the matter is they want to make trust levels more automated and it’s coming Soon™. Where’s the communication on what they are doing? We the people should have a say on the changes that affect us if they want the best solution to be executed Soon™.
Still not classified as trusted enough to post feature requestion, despite having tons of read posts, likes, solutions and the lot
How do you determine if someone needs the regular rank if they are unable to create topics in #bug-reports?
Based on the number of times they have gone through @Bug-Support. Same way we did it for Post Approval. (2 Post Approved badges = you get Regular, if you meet other criteria)
If they have never had to contact @Bug-Support there is no evidence Roblox has to support that person needing a priority rank-up to Regular.
I legit just got member today and i was excited to post a feature request but couldn’t. i really hope this happens
They updated the official level-up post to confirm that Regular is currently invite-only, but a different pinned post in this category confirms many members are simply “not currently eligible” to post feature requests but also suggests that the process of reporting issues is planned to be improved in the future… 
I also believe all members should be able to create topics in #bug-reports. I disagree that Regular is invite only and instead we should contribute to the devforum and keep browsing regularly to obtain the role.
The most you can do for now is report a bug privately by messaging Bug Support or by contacting Roblox Support and selecting Bug Report as your help category.
I agree but at the same time I disagree, true there are many people with valid feature requests but at the same time there will most likely be stupid feature requests here and there as well.
True, so many feature requests would not be related to an existing issue that the user has other than that the feature they’re requesting doesn’t exist.
Let’s try to get the attention of Roblox Staff so we can get this sorted out sooner than later.
Getting the Regular rank is currently too hard for members like us right now.
I’m tracking the topic along with every other topic on this issue! 
Please review my response here if you haven’t seen it. (there are a lot of duplicate topics about this issue)
The posts are saying the same thing: we may give some people the ability to post feature requests based on needs. We’re working on enabling everyone to create feature requests again (see post above)
Thank you for your response. We appreciate the team’s effort to improve the DevForum and the rest of Roblox.
