I really like this idea, support!
What if users in a certain trainer level range or something had to
take a small quiz on the rules before making a suggestion?
If you type up how you want the thread to look, then copy the code
for it and put it in the code tags, then pm it to yourself, once
you're level 15, if it's not already a feature available, you're
all good to go.
An example of this is:
So the "having a good suggestion while being a lower level" thing
doesn't have much of a "Well, I forgot what it was going to be"
excuse :p
That aside, I support the higher level + a minimum account length
for this. Since I was level 15 in... I think four days >.>;;
(Minimum account length = How long since the account was created
and first accessed)
I definitely support this. I use the forums a lot, and I often see
suggestions from people who haven't spent enough time on the site
to be able to make an informed suggestion.
For the users who haven't been on for long enough, but have an idea
they want to suggest, they could talk to another user, who has a
high enough level, who could make the suggestion for them if they
think it is a good idea. For example: Matt the newbie has an idea
for tidying up the gem exchange. Matt the newbie tells David the
lvl 30 user about his idea. David agrees that it is a good idea and
makes the suggestion on Matts behalf.
Full Support!
I have seen soooo many users on trainer level 10 or under who have
just spammed the suggestions with useless and pointless
suggestions, which dont have a chance of being implemented!
I am on the forums the most and I always see users who haven't even
learnt anything around the site who just suggest their hearts out,
like they can do what they want and that's how conflicts start,
followed by false reporting etc etc.
Despite me being under the trainer level you're all suggesting, I'd
like to put in a few ideas. What if they kept bugging users to post
whatever suggestion in the forums constantly because the one
bugging the user with the higher trainerlevel was about 10 or so?
Could newbies also ask veterans (or very dedicated) users of this
site to suggest whatever for them? I honestly see this causing a
nuisance for people who are above the level range you're suggesting
and are able to post in suggestions.

As the users that may be bugged, they are more experienced and know
what to do about it! As, they may be users who started a year ago
and they know what to do as like I said they are more experienced
and know may know to stop people from bugging them!
I support fully! There are some really stupid suggestions going
around, especially recently, so this would be a great idea!
Although, I think there should be a playing time limit, like Sitri
said. Because some users have been on for 6+ months and higher than
Trainerlevel 15, but still make bad suggestions.
Yeah, I definitely support this. I had some stuff I was thinking
about suggesting, but I decided to sit on it for a bit, and now
that I've got a little experience with the site under my belt I
realize they were redundant/defeated the point of
stuff/ill-though-out, etc. There are so many "discover as you go"
aspects to the site, it's like making suggestions about something
you only have half a picture of.
I'm a bit above the typical age-range for this site, so I had
enough forethought to wait before posting my thoughts. But younger
kids scientifically have lower impulse control. I know if I was 13
I would not be able to resist spamming all of my ~super neat~
ideas.
I 420% support this. If this gets implemented then the amount of
spam suggestions as others have said here will be brought down by a
ton and that would be amazing and would make it a lot easier
for mods and such to scope out better and more creative suggestions
that have a better chance of making it onto the site.
This needs to be implemented. Maybe there should be a level limit
for palpad and PMs too, because (no offence) most new players bug
other people instead of reading the rules.
