This forum is powered by Discourse which ships with a default trust system where users gradually build trust over time, and in doing so unlock more and more capabilities.
This trust system is baked-in as a way to combat spam. If you are new here and have not yet earned a lot of trust, that does not mean we don’t trust you, but merely that you are new to the forum system itself.
Give it some time, and you will rise through the ranks automatically.
