Hey Raindrop,

The title of this thread that you started makes it sound like users without rights and users with rights should be/are segregated. On the contrary, users with user rights are just selected users whose quality contributions have been recognised. Although not every user is granted rights, that does not mean their contributions are not welcome. It just means that the community doesn't feel they are ready for rights yet. Whether anyone continuously asks an admin (who are just users entrusted with a few extra rights and powers) for promotion or not, their request will be rejected if the community does not think they are ready for rights yet.

Especially if the user is not ready yet, or may have acted poorly in the past, it will be a while before their request for rights is accepted. Acting serious or silly does not affect the judgement of an admin by a large amount. It's generally the quality of their contributions balanced with who else is a potential candidate, and the wiki's need of an extra promoted user.

Furthermore, as mentioned by Spike earlier, Bloons Wiki has no need for promoting users at the moment, meaning that anyone who wishes to have "user rights" will have to wait until nominations are open again.
