@chris , @tdooner : We should probs lift the default limit of two URLs per post. very annoying.

+1 to that. Do you have permission to do it Carl or do you need one of us to?

Not an admin so no, don’t have ability on my end.

Ah okay, I just bumped it to 10. It also apparently only applies to new users.

Yeah, it does. But I think we should be more trusting IMHO.

@carlvlewis @tdooner I changed it so only trust level 1 was required to convert your own post into a wiki this morning It’s not clear to me yet what people have to do right now to get from trust level 0 to trust level 1. I just found this page documenting it: https://meta.discourse.org/t/what-do-u…

I’m thinking it may be fine to leave the trust levels lower for this beginning pilot period as we get users on board. Then we crank it back up later, or once we start seeing negative effects like spam or whatnot. It shouldn’t be too big of a deal to catch since we’re actively monitoring the forums…

I neglected to update here that I’ve since changed the default trust level for new users to 1 (from 0) and promoted all existing users to at least 1 Until we have a spam problem I’m more worried about people singing up ready to contribute something and then hitting a roadblock

You can turn that post into a wiki, @chris! Just select the bottom right option and then anyone can add to it.
