What you can do: everything, from the first minute

The doors are open. From your very first post you can start topics, reply, upvote and downvote, use tags, cross-post, share links, and edit and delete your own posts and topics. That goes for all our open categories: The Crypto Hub , The Chatterbox , The Good, The Bad and The Buggy ️, and The Chronicle Room ️, our blog corner. No waiting room, no probation.

For now, there are no image or file uploads (share links instead), no private chats and no groups made by members. We keep the conversation out in the open.

Your path: six levels, earned and never bought

Your level grows with your posts and your reputation, and you need both. Every upvote on your posts gives you +1, and every downvote takes one away. Write things people enjoy and you climb. No application form, no secret handshake.

And here is the quiet part: there are no member lists and no VIP door. There is no “please let me in” button. You can’t join a level by asking. The forum notices what you’ve earned and moves you up on its own. ️

Why levels at all? To say thank you. Levels honour the people who make this place better, and they never lock a door. Everyone can post, reply, vote and share links from minute one. Got a better idea? Throw it our way, we’re all ears.

Stardust – New Member (everyone starts here)
We all began as stardust. Welcome aboard.

Protostar – Junior Member (5 posts and 10 reputation)
Something is starting to glow.

Supernova – Active Member (25 posts and 40 reputation)
You are lighting up the place. Literally.

Neutron Star – Senior Member (75 posts and 100 reputation)
Small, dense, and packed with good posts.

️ Black Hole – Veteran (200 posts and 200 reputation)
Nobody leaves a conversation with you without being pulled in.

New World – Legend (chosen by the community, or reached at 500 posts and 500 reputation)
Only a Black Hole Veteran can be nominated, and you decide: the community votes. Or you simply keep going until you reach 500 posts and 500 reputation. Either way, a Legend is born.

Each level comes with its own badge next to your name. The fancy badge artwork is on its way.

Who runs the place

Admins built the house and hold the keys. We also fix the leaky tap and keep the peace and the lights on. Be nice to us: we know where the delete button lives.

At the moment we are a small crew, so please be gentle with us. Moderators will join us when the forum grows.

Only admins (and the future moderators) start topics in Community Dispatch (announcements). Everyone can reply and vote there.

Questions? Ask. Suggestions? Throw them our way. Tomatoes? Still no.

Welcome home! ️
