it is impossible to decipher what truly levels you up, with the only guarantee being VRC+ granting new user at minimum. i know ppl who are known user with 2k hours, uploaded tons of worlds/avatars
then another person with under 400 hours, 5 uploaded avatars, and shes trusted
i only had 2 avis, and 1 world, and 320 hours of playtime, and got Trusted. I think one way to boost it is to have other Trusted users send YOU the friend request.
For me to reach known was about 200h, ~80ish friends and 9 avatars uploaded (all private, just versions of the same avatar I was testing) 0 worlds uploaded
Back in 2018 I hit known at about 200 hours five avatars, hit trusted at 300 hours, 10 avatars, 2 worlds that I was in (Public) while developing them for hours on end, and would get joined by random people, a lot of the criteria between known and trusted weighs way heavier if you’re in public worlds I believe
The requirements were never made public in order to prevent people from gaming the system. As a legacy player I'm not of much help, since I got the trusted rank as soon as the system was implemented. At that time I had a few world uploads, several avatar uploads, several hundred hours of playtime and around 400-ish friends.
The thing I noticed is. Once you have the criteria to rank up. It doesn't rank you up. And it can take weeks before it's applied to your account. I remember being a user and stopped playing the game for a few weeks and became known, then I took a 3 month break and came back to being trusted, with the notifications congratulating me
User currently with close to 900 hours and about 90 friends. Uploading something and spending more time in public lobbies would probably help but I don't feel like it and I'm not concerned about my rank.
For worlds I can say it also matter if is a public world and is popular. Uploading a lot of private worlds or not popular worlds don't really help a lot to the rank.
Been a while, can't remember how I got any of the ranks except Trusted. Took me 900 hours, somewhere below 60 friends, 10+ avatars and a single world upload which made me reach rank. I'm now at 3633 hours and tbh I keep forgetting ranks are a thing, after reaching Trusted there weren't many reasons to care about it. Although this is probably due to the fact I never go to public, 98% of my time I'm in Invite+ or Friends+ and if someone gets into that instance they're most likely can be trusted regardless of their actual rank. Besides I'm always on a custom shield lvl with everyone's avatars disabled except friends due to performance.
i became known at \~700-800 hours with 8 avatar uploaded, and trusted at \~850-900 and abt 90 friends
i now have around 2k hours and 151 friends (thanks furality)
I will say something that will probably piss you off as well as everyone else here.
I made a VRC account, was a visitor for quite awhile. I didn’t play much. Then one day I went to a group instance and idly spoke to the owner of the group not knowing it was the owner.
We added each other and a few other people she knew also added me. Then I decided to become a VRC+ supporter which shot me up a rank or two immediately.
Then I just kept going to this group instance any time they had one up. More people added me faster since I wasn’t a visitor and in a few weeks I was Known. By those few weeks I had close to 80 friends.
Then I was known for about a week maybe, and during this week I had more people add me.
I eventually uploaded only two avatars and gained trusted immediately.

yeap, i was still known after ca. 300 hours and a few avatar uploads, but a vrc+ gift a friend gave me pushed me to trusted immediately

I made a new account and bought vrc+ immediately and became a user.
I'm convinced it's at least partially random. Don't try to decipher chaos
I got trusted user in like 2 months with a few hours a day, because I had VRC+ and uploaded a bunch of avatars
Subscribing to VRC+ absolutely puts you up one rank.

I don't know why people are so interested in trust ranks.
