Post for New Users!

You may not immediately have access to all forum features. That is a safety measure to prevent bad actors from spamming or causing problems. As you spend time on the forum, you will gain Trust automatically through participation - reading and responding to posts.

[!tip]
One way to build Trust is to alert the Tutorial account @discobot. If you take the automated tutorial, it will send you a private message and walk you through some Discourse functions to get you started.
