The above discussions talk about the name of the rank, as if it was created and we are looking for the name. There are no indications for creating a new rank, and therefore talking about its name or its requirements is a waste of time.

Personally, I see adding a new rank that will increase spam from the previous ranks, because it will get a higher wage.
The admins on this forum may be slow to implement some new ideas and suggestions on this forum, but if it shows that there is interest and support from the forum community, they will eventually accept the suggestions.
How long did some members wait for promotion in merit source? Half a year, a year?
In this forum, things never happen quickly, but they do eventually, if a consensus is reached on something.
I personally think that the time has come to add a new forum rank, for members with 2500 and more merits, and I don't care what that new forum rank would be called.
Members with 2500 merits and more are really members who have contributed a lot to this forum, its reputation and quality, and deserve recognition for that through a new forum rank.
