Since the Roblox Developer Forum website has been going through a lot of changes over the past years regarding how users can join and level up, with the capabilities of seeking help in #help-and-feedback (for instance), it has come to a point where the system stops and gets reimagined. “Leader” and “Editor” trust levels are unobtainable (when it comes being anyone) while “Regular” and “Member” controversies were all resolved by the creation of forum groups @AllowBugReports and @AllowFeatureRequests, providing the change to make bug reports and feature requests. Leaving the trust level and “Visitor” active. In the past, most of these trust levels mentioned had requirements that you needed to follow if you wanted to communicate with others, but with internal changes between the Developer Relations team, this came to an end proven by the latest status of the classic post that every veteran in this forum has seen and followed: How to level up on the Roblox Developer Forum - #11
As a Roblox developer, it is currently too hard to see that these trust levels are still being viewed as stages that you need to follow, because although we know that, they don’t have any usage, indirectly, new forum users are disorientated, leading to a persistence perspective that they must read numerous topics in an X time, while it has been recently stated by a Roblox employee that this would be a “more gaming of the requirements”.
Thus, it has come to my belief that the visibility of the trust levels should be hidden since they are useless. According to some research that I made, this suggestion is possible by making some modifications in the front-end background using CSS (Cascading Style Sheets):
If Roblox is able to address this issue, it would improve my experience using the forum because it would make the forum less confusing for new users and improve overall clarity. Hiding outdated trust levels would help users focus on contributing and engaging with the forum without being distracted by irrelevant and outdated progression systems.
