Udon Avatar Rank Detection

It would be nice to be able to get the rank of an avatar via Udon to allow for world creators to filter out players above a certain threshold. (e.g. You load into a room and have to click a door handle to teleport out, the door handle doesn't work if your rank is "Very Poor") This would make managing high-capacity worlds a bit easier and reduce the need to manually check everyone who enters.

I mean they could change to the default avatar and click and and change right back.
Plus they are still there in the world and if they stay there and more keep joining, its still gonna lag just the same.

certainly has the potential for alot of backlash, but for alot of events, this could come in extremely useful, and hopefully convince people to optimize more.

In your Advanced Safety settings, you can filter out avatar performance and "Perf Block" them. I don't think that Udon programming can interact with VRChat's avatar API.
To mitigate some worries about unoptimized avatars in a world, it's healthy to encourage avatar creators to consider re-uploading their avatar with better performance. Some dance club worlds will have signs heavily recommending users to change to an avatar that is not 'Poor' or worse with performance before going in.
If you're a world creator, I can recommend these tips to help other users decrease lag. However, I shouldn't worry too much, since VRChat gave every user the tools necessary to hide avatars that are too laggy, whether it's automatic via Safety settings, or manually hiding an avatar in the Quick Menu.

This is how segregation start. Will you endorse this ?
But Avatar ranking is a chose, so it not a bad idea for big event

Franada: I'd argue that there already is segregation. Between Quest/PC and people who have to block more intense avatars. Plus all of the worlds that already enforce avatar limits and exclude/kick people for it.
Could even argue that this might allow more people to have a better experience by helping users to encourage more efficient avatars.
