New - Learning the forums

Hi @RedRaven4231965,

Sorry to hear the troubles you have been having. Let me help out a bit…

The forum uses this thing called “Trust Levels.” This a way so that new members don’t “hurt” themselves as they learn the forum and the features that come with it. To create a topic, you must be at Trust Level 1. There is more info here: Trust Levels and How To Advance

Achieving Trust Level One is easy. The criteria is:

  • Enter 5 Topics
  • Read 5 Posts
  • Spend at least 15 minutes reading posts on the forums

Once you do that, you will receive a Personal Message from the system saying that you have been upgraded to Trust Level 1 :sunglasses:

There is this topic here you can read for further info: Why Can’t I Create a Topic?

In addition for your issues, once you reach TL1, go ahead and make a topic in a subcategory User Support Hub and tag me there. I’ll be able to help you :saluting_face:
