What is the suggestion about?

Disallow people to make a YouTube/Twitch rank request without meeting the requirements.​

Description:

Take a look at this page-​

YouTube / Twitch Applications Archive

jartexnetwork.com

​

​

99% of all these threads are from people who did not meet any requirements, probably didn't know there were any and got denied. New people are ignorant and incredulous of the requirements for both Staff and YT/Twitch rank even though it is literally mentioned right next to or below the input field!​

​

People should not be allowed to post applications unless they link their YouTube account directly to JartexNetwork forums and their channel has enough subscribers and meets all requirements to submit an application. This would stop any trolls impersonating other youtubers/twitch streamers and people who do not meet the requirements while keeping it very simple and easy to understand so that YouTubers don't miss out on the rank.​

How can this idea help to improve JartexNetwork?

This will literally stop 99% of newbies/trolls from applying. The rest 1% would either be accepted or denied based on the votes.​

Extra Information:

Feel free to point out flaws in the replies! I would love to clarify any of your doubts or edit my suggestion if you'd like.​

First thing to get a youtube rank should be being a very good player and known member of the community. And I definitely believe that the staff will know them very well

It's a +1 from me, but Jartex will need to spend some time on this as it's not that easy, and I don't really think they wanna do that as their main focus is to update minigames again and again...

rightfully so because minigames need to be updated constantly. even with the huge playerbase, it's constantly running at a loss money-wise and requires us to deliver quality updates with more perks for ranks to give people more incentive to buy stuff. besides money, by updating minigames we're keeping around three thousand players happy. i get that you're unhappy about the updates or resets on other gamemodes, but compared to minigames they admittedly require much less maintenance

how tf are you gonna identify whether or not they meet the reqs?? legit they can just type in some random number like idk 351237 and it'd allow them to post

Did you read the last para lmfao

There should be some programming in forums to prevent people from submitting in the forums, by either making sure the number of subscribers they enter is above the requirements, and maybe using an API to find out the number of subscribers directly from their YouTube channel and to search through their channel/video tags so that they don't lie in the application.

yes, and it still makes zero sense.

"they should prevent them from submitting if the number of subs they enter is below the reqs"

"maybe using an API to find out the number of subscribers directly from their YouTube channel and to search through their channel/video tags so that they don't lie in the application."
how are you planning on doing this if, say, they provide a link to a channel that's not theirs?

+1 since most of them get denied because of it tho how are you going to know if they meet the the requirements or not?

That would only be applicable if they pass through the filter and end up in the 1% of people who's appeal gets accepted.

They can already do this lmao, and obviously their appeal would get denied. They would be the 9% of people I mentioned.
Also, I think I should make it even more clear that subscriber field should be removed so that people can't lie about their subs.

yes, i know they can do this, which invalidates your point about an api looking through their channel. how are you going to know which channel to look for? by using a link. unless you're looking to add a way for players to link their youtube account, i don't see this working. even if you do add that linkaccount, who is realistically going to give up their google account information to jartex? i'm sure there's a few people dedicated enough but you're going to miss out on a lot of potential content creators.

+1 if devs could code a bot to do this but troll application will ruin the purpose tho :C
