The Trust Levels within Discourse are implemented in this Pyth DAO Forum to achieve the highest quality possible discussion level.

Discourse Levels range from 0 to 4 and have been mostly designed following the Discourse Best Practices available [here](https://blog.discourse.org/2018/06/understanding-discourse-trust-levels/).

If you’d have any issue or feedback on the current Trust Levels set up and according rules, please post below with as much details as possible as this will help further fine tune the rules and set up.

Users at trust level 0 can: _browse Categories and read Topics already available on the Pyth DAO Forum._
