I got lucky when Aurali went on a random upgrade spree. I may have asked for it, but I contributed to the site by fixing tags and participating in tagging projects when I was a Member. I'm just hoping the staff won't upgrade users that has done nothing for the site just because they requested one

They won't, they'll be discussed if they ask but we won't start handing them out to totally random people.
Also, we already did that beforehand but the real problem is, many good people tend to stay below the radar, this is kinda our way encouraging them to contact us about it if they have need for it.
