Some of you may have noticed that you achieved trust level 3 on this server. This is due to the requirements on this server being much lower than the old one. I am coming on ocassionally and locking the accounts that achieved level 3 back to level 2 member.
This is not punishing anyone, just a way of compensating for a low requirement threshhold for these increased abilities. I am only leaving a few at this level. Primarily mods and those that I know had this level on the old forum, whose requirements were quite high.
So, if you notice you get the level and then get lowered back down, dont take it personally. It never shouldve happened in the first place that that many users recieved partial mod like abilities.
