Understanding Discourse Trust Levels

Not sure how much Zantai has altered them though. I know L3 is disabled.

[eisprinzessin]

Sent me a PM with the tags you would like to have.

[Avyctes]

I know L3 is disabled.

Default setup is level 0, 1, 2, 3 and 4. On this forum 0 and 3 are disabled. New members start at 1 and progress to 2 after 15 days of activity. 3 would be level for very active members if it was active, and you could be demoted back to 2 if you weren’t active enough. 4 is moderators and such.

I am not sure I trust the trust system.It’s kinda continuation of wicked social network with likes and popularity.But still wonder who is gonna be the prom king

According to the article it is only Trust Level 3 which can lose status in that fashion:

Furthermore, unlike other trust levels, you can lose trust level 3 status .

But the rules are whatever Z wants to make of 'em and he’s been pruning it to his liking since shortly after discovering how everything in Discourse works.

[Avyctes]

Level 3 is pretty much a vanity rank for very active people anyway, it’s no big loss.

He nixed 3 pretty quickly. That’s basically mod level powers going on there.

0 is still the rank for new users, as an anti-spam measure.

1 is the default for the average user.

2 actually has considerably lower requirements than the default Discourse settings. It’s a matter of time for forum regulars to reach that rank. Rank 2 users can create Tags.

3 is currently impossible to reach. We may assign it to certain users based on need/merit, but probably wont need to. I’ve disabled the default Discourse settings for this rank that enable some baseline Moderation powers, so it doesn’t serve much of a point.

4 is effectively moderators.

By the way how new badges and trust ranks interacts with old system?I see that I have rank Herald,so that is still working?

Also is there opportunity to see users ranked by number of posts or rank?

Ah nice. Just noticed that. Avyctes has his Champion rank too. Mebbe Z slapped the old ranks back in there for post counts.

[medea_fleecestealer]

It’s just based on number of posts. You can see the ranks here

About forum ranks

The post counts go something like this: 1 - initiate 25 - acolyte 50 - speaker 100 - supporter 200 - counsel 400 - advocate 600 - campaigner 800 - emissary 1000 - herald 1500 - champion 2500 - lord advocate 5000 - Apostle 7500 - Ascendant (Added in 2018 when someone unintentionally hit those numbers) Might be some more than that but don’t really know. There is also the Praetorian title which represents playtesters.

[powbam]

Ok so that system was retained then.

[Nery]

Thanks for responses!

Very interesting,that the old system based on posts number is working.I think my number is actually lower,probably some of the old topics are deleted,that makes sense.

Eis link to forum members sort by posts is not working,probably is unavailable in current forum.

The ranks are a legacy from the old forum.

By default, they do not exist. We would have to add new badges and triggers for earning them, which requires exposing the SQL. So unless we change something down the line, they will likely remain a legacy from the olden times, special titles you can no longer acquire!

Thanks, think I understand.

So I carry the rank of Herald from old forum,but even if I write more posts,up to 1.5k I will not have my status changed to Champion.Also any new users will not have ranked or not different than initiate.

Discourse system is based on badges&trust level,got it

Yeah that was the old forums ‘sorted’ member list. The new forum can be sorted similarly tho, like so:

Thanks,Powbam! This way one can see activity of top players and click on their names to find topic they’re interested.
