That makes sense, thanks! Time for me to post a bit then I guess

how many points for each badge? how many points is a cus avatar?
get a badge and all of this information will become available to you! until then you gotta stick to wondering...
Is there somewhere in this fórum, or some other related fórum, where I can speak about hackrooms?
Are there any strict requirements for pre-contributor or is it based on when someone notices you contributing to the community?
They can vary based on quality, quantity, and similar such factors + you can have contributions from several sections all count towards something that's basically a starter badge.
Can unbadged users apply for the GP or QC teams of a specific forum?
GP isn't subforum specific, but otherwise yes.
Is there any way for unbadged users to make a thread in policy review? I tried submitting a post request yesterday, but it requires you to link a thread. I can assure this is no joke post -- it's about addressing 10+ year old issues with the usage stats based on research I've done for 1.5 years.
We discussed this internally - you should be able to post in PR now.

totally off the cuff but I think this could help with many projects: often times people sign up for a project or tour in a thread, then the host wants to ping everyone. Idk, personally I'd find it useful if there was a way to ping everyone in the thread with a single @ mention. Not sure if it's possible on these forums, but just a suggestion if it is.
Maybe only let the OP do it or make a clear punishment for those who abuse it if you let anyone do it.

my suggestion:
allow the creator of a thread to request "Ping Access" (either via a thread or button idk) maybe with a reason as to why, or moderator checks thread
if allowed the thread creator can do this

can mods/supermods/admins see things we post in sandbox? Just you know...dont want to reveal teams/prep to them! I know it says original poster onlybut just asking.
Senior staff has stated before they do not have access but can give themselves access if they ever need it for whatever reason

https://www.smogon.com/forums/threads/current-state-of-ss-ou.3726411/page-2#post-9756255 I requested posting access (using the proper form) for this thread a week ago maybe more and haven't heard anything back - how long does this process usually take?
also if i wanted to make posts about general competitive strategy and mindset and building in such a way that it is 'evergreen' (not tied to any specific metagame or tier), what subforum would be best suited for this?

is there a way to see a list of all the images/icons/gifs that can be inserted into posts by typing them
:like-this:? I know there's emotes that can be inserted and seen from the menu but they don't cover all the possibilities like pokémon sprites, items, etc.
The smog dex is going to be your best bet for ease of use. For example, pokemon and items (which afaik are the only 2 classes supported). Specifying a gen posts the respective dex image. So for instance
:rb/charmander: will auto to the /dex/rb/pokemon/charmander sprite. Similarly for all the othersShortcuts are (in plain text) converting the names to lower case, replacing space with -, and removing any special characters that aren't - (i.e. Mr. Mime becomes
:mr-mime:.
Don't think there's space with it being the place for various custom titles, and then banners and badges under that.
how to insert a pokemon spritte in our message? How to make a signature appear?
Use :pokemon-name: for a minisprite (ex. :oras/necrozma: (without the oras/ part) brings up
). For spaces, use a dash.
To make a signature, click your profile at the upper right, then there should be an option for signature
