That actually sounds like an amazing idea. Of course, I can be patient when I want to, but to wait three months? That's a little over board :P

First, it will ensure that those getting the trusted rank (automatically) actually can be trusted without us knowing them. Second, it will ensure that Trusted players know they have a 3 month wait to get it back if they get banned, making them less likely to grief as well.
Took me 2 months to get trusted rank, and that's being out in the open and doing things in groups. I think someone who's out doing solo work should be 3. It's not that long when you think about it.

Fair enough.

I recently got my trusted rank in 4-5 days of playing :)
It's not just abiding to rules and helping out. Be friends with some mods and just walk with the crowds as they say.
I also advise Mumble! It will boost your chances by a lot!

It helps them understand what kind of person you are and can be, if you are capable of handling the rank of trusted. The whole point of the trusted rank is as it sounds, to be "trusted". We, as mods and as a community, must trust you to be a responsible, kind and helpful player.

People will begin to argue that they have completely "qualified for a guideline....been playing for a long time...helped others...but all for nothing?". People have to learn to understand that the rank is only for the server's most trusted players. If they are helpful, they are not just being helpful because they want to get the trusted rank, but it must be of their own choice. Trusteds are role models in the Opticraft community: people who are mature, follow the rules, never grief, and love to help everyone out. Although it is a rank, we should not consider it to be one. Rather, it is a privileged title to those most deserving of being "a trusted member" of the community. It is a rank you "shouldn't expect to receive", meaning you'll get it at any random time, when the staff feel you are ready. Some trusteds have gotten their rank within hours, while some have gotten it within months. It all depends on the person and how well our staff perceives them.
Like I said earlier, mumble is a great way to get trusted, for those "deeply concerned" about it. Just being on mumble and meeting all the players, mods and even the admins sometimes, helps everyone see what kind of person you are.
