The edit button is sorta back but now I can edit others posts

This is why you’re much more of a value to this board than I am.

I did, but after i did the wiki thing.

What’s the very first thing you’re clicking?

Got it! Thanks. I needed the playdo model.

Glad you figured it out, my friend.

Darn it, apparently I’m not one of the cool kids.

Thank you and everyone who helped for your efforts.

I have no idea what’s going on here, but I’m going to try to edit this post

I failed. I don’t have a little wrench icon. Spellcheck and proofreading, you’re my only hope.

You might not be a level 3 poster yet. It has some prerequisites.

By the way. This isn’t new, but i just figured out that while the wiki is still open, people can scroll through the edits in a post to see how the post has changed over time.

I think this was alluded to by the mods, but it appears anyone can see who edited, and how the edits took place over time.

hmm

should be pinned to top of the community feedback forum until july 31 now. Wouldn’t let me do it without entering a date to unpin.

Can you make a stand alone post (aka new thread) with the instruction on wiki. I can pin it to the top of every forum

Thanks Snow! I feel this thread has been really useful.

Bummer. Can’t I be grandfathered in? I’ve been coming to this party for just short of forever. Maybe I ought to post more often. Or bribe a mod. :wink:

I posted this earlier in the thread, but here it is again.

Trust Level 3 — Regular

Regulars are the backbone of your community, the most active readers and reliable contributors over a period of months, even years. Because they’re always around, they can be further trusted to help tidy up and organize the community.

To get to trust level 3, 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 the above criteria must be true to achieve trust level 3. Furthermore, unlike other trust levels, you can lose trust level 3 status. If you dip below these requirements in the last 100 days, you will be demoted back 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.

Users at trust level 3 can…

recategorize and rename topics
access a secure category only visible to users at trust level 3 and higher
have all their links followed (we remove automatic nofollow)
TL3 spam flags cast on TL0 user posts immediately hide the post
TL3 flags cast on TL0 user posts in sufficient diversity will auto-silence the user and hide all their posts
make their own posts wiki (that is, editable by any TL1+ users)
Daily like limit increased by 2×

Admins can change these thresholds by searching for TL3 in site settings.

Seems like a lot of work. I’ll just keep doing what I’ve been doing. Maybe I’ll achieve this elusive level three, maybe I won’t. I’m living stress free, baby, and I’ma gonna keep it that way.

We could copy paste his post into a new thread? I would do it, but i don’t want to step out of bounds… You must suspend me again!!!

You keep doing what you do. Editing posts is overrated anyways.

Edit: no it isn’t. It’s awesome.
