Since the Scratch Team made a subtitle for new scratchers called "new member", how about there are other ones like "Scratch Veteran" (Stay more than 3 years), or something like "Scratch Curator" If you became one.

What exactly is a subtitle? Do you mean a user title? If so, it would take too much work to find ALL of the forumers who signed up in 07 and individually make them into Scratch Veterans. Also, why are you trying so hard to segregate the forums? We already have 3 hierarchies: The ones with power, the moderators and Scratch Team (+1 ScratchR), The normal people, all members, and the New Scratchers System which was just a countermeasure for troll attacks and will most likely soon be taken off. There's absolutely no need to waste time gathering all the people of different years and changing their user titles. What purpose would it even serve? "Hahaha I've been joined to Scratch longer than you so I have Veteran as my title! Hahahaha you loser! Newbie!" Do we really want that kind of community? Of course not!

1. A code would change it, not mods. 2. People would get banned from that by mods. Problems fixed. Derp Herp.

They don't have to got to each and every person. They could just use a script that makes everyone from a certain year and change their title instantly, oh, and I don't kno why you're so mad about the "new scratcher's" thing. I've never seen anyone say that new scratchers are "losers".

I assume that the implementation of this is not too difficult because of the custom ones like Scratch Team, and ScratchR, which are not what you'd see on an original forum. I guess I don't really mind what it says, so I'm half-half about the idea.

Giving people ranks based on how long they've been on Scratch? I find that ridiculous.

1. Good luck convincing someone to make a code like that
The Scratch Team obviously won't waste their time on it since they're too busy working on Scratch 2.0.
2. The ranks would have absolutely no meaning then whatsoever. Basically anything referring to one's rank would be interpretted similarly to the statement I said and everyone would need to be banned. Basically you're doing it now too by suggesting the older members get ranked like this.
@(lots-of-numbers)june: Nobody said the New Scratchers were being called losers (BUT I KNOW YOU'RE ALL THINKING IT, just kidding) but with this system, it wouldn't be the New Scratchers being looked down upon but the lower ranked members, by Scratch Veterans.
