ProjectVanlife does not quite trust new users yet, as they are visitors who just created an account, still learning the community norms and the way our forum works. Whether accidentally, or intentionally, new users can cause problems in our community.
We also want to hide any so-called “advanced” functionality from new users to make the User Interface 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.
The first 100 (or so) users will be automatically promoted to Basic Trust Level 1
Users at trust level 0 cannot…
