Nice, you should get the award. I’m already attempting to get several done
Bot still didn’t explain how invites work
Just explore a little bit. In your profile settings you’ll see an option to invite people, which is what this badge is referring to.
I may or may not be rushing to work so I’ll take a more careful look when I’m off, I’ll see you guys later!
There’s an advanced one as well.Can’t seem to find it?
Where’s the advance tutorial
In your messages (click your profile pic in the upper right, then choose the envelope icon), send a message to @ForumBotMatch
When the bot replies, you can send @ForumBotMatch start advanced user to start the tutorial
Does anyone know how to get level 2 access?
We still have to write a post on some of the Discourse basics, but all the trust levels work on the idea that if you post normally, and have good forum habits, you’ll get upgraded. It’s not something you have to specifically try to earn.
Level three brings some new abilities, like creating wikis, and helping with thread organization/titling, but we have some opportunities for folks to help out before that, too. Check here, if you’re interested:
After some research and unless it was modified then these seem to be the requirements for trust levels.
New (0)
Discourse does not quite trust new users yet, as they are visitors who just created an account, still learning the community norms and the way your forum works. Whether accidentally, or intentionally, new users can cause problems in your community.
We also want to hide any so-called “advanced” functionality from new users to make the UI less confusing for them and gently land them on the deeper UI as they get more experienced.
Thus, new users’ abilities are restricted for safety – both theirs and yours.
Users at trust level 0 cannot…
Send private messages to other users
“Reply as new topic” via Link button (UI removed)
Flag posts
Post more than 1 image
Post any attachments
Post more than 2 hyperlinks in a post
Have actual links in the ‘about me’ field of their profile (will be silently and temporarily converted to plain text)
Mention more than 2 users in a post
Basic (1)
If a user sticks around long enough to read a bit, Discourse now trusts them as a basic user.
They can get to trust level 1 by…
entering at least 5 topics
reading at least 30 posts
spend a total of 10 minutes reading posts
Users at trust level 1 can…
use all core Discourse functions
Upload images and attachments if enabled
Edit wiki posts
Flag posts
have all new user restrictions removed
Members (2)
Members keep coming back to the site, and have participated long enough to earn complete citizenship.
They can get to trust level 2 by…
visiting at least 15 days, not sequentially
casting at least 1 like
receiving at least 1 like
replying to at least 3 different topics
entering at least 20 topics
reading at least 100 posts
spend a total of 60 minutes reading posts
Users at trust level 2 can…
Use the “Invite others to this topic” button for one-click onboarding of new users to participate in topics
Invite outside users to PMs making a group PM
Daily like limit increased by 1.5 ×
Regular (3)
Regulars are the most active readers and reliable contributors over long periods of time.
They can get to trust level 3 by…
This is time and activity based, unlike the previous levels. In the last 100 days…
must have visited at least 50% of days
must have replied to at least 10 different topics
of topics created in the last 100 days, must have viewed 25% (capped at 500)
of posts created in the last 100 days, must have read 25% (capped at 20k)
must have received 20 likes, and given 30 likes.*
must not have received more than 5 spam or offensive flags (with unique posts and unique users for each, confirmed by a moderator)
must not have been suspended
- These likes must be across a minimum number of different users (1/5 the number), across a minimum number of different days (1/4 the number). Likes cannot be from PMs.
All of these must be true.
Unlike other trust levels, you can lose trust level 3 status. If you dip below these requirements, whether from flagging or the passage of time, you will be demoted to Member. However, in order to avoid constant promotion/demotion situations, there is a 2-week grace period immediately after gaining Trust Level 3 during which you will not be demoted.

Earned by Manual promotion!
Hey @HipsterSkaarf I know you said it’s somewhere in my setting but I still can’t seem to find it. Can you screen shot what I’m suppose to be looking at?
It seems that either this isn’t available for basic users or it isn’t in mobile view.
it’s not on my page either, so it’s probably not available for basic users
Ah, interesting … I’ll see if there’s a setting for it that I can tweak
Update: nope, that option requires Trust Level 2, and that can’t be changed, it seems
Ooooh, okay. So I haven’t gotten enough trust yet? That’s a shame but it seems fair to prevent spamming.
After doing some research you are correct, it cannot be changed. Although the developers of discourse stated in the future these will be able to be modified as well as rename the trust levels into your own names.
@PinkiePie unfortunately you will need to be a member for atleast 15 days along with some other basic criteria to hit level 2.
The system may seem like a little much but if you really put some thought into it this seems like a great way to somewhat needle out the toxicity that may come in the future. Will be even better when we can modify it fit our needs.
That’s perfectly fine. Im trying it out for a few days anyways to see if I can get into the groove of things so it’ll be cool.
