After long discussion we concluded that barrier to entry is enough of a protection, and to encourage participatio…

What does TL3 give these users which TL2 doesn’t though?

Hmm good point thanks, but even if we might have advanced Users too early, there is a potential problem regarding the above where TL3 can override the good work of promoted Category moderators. What are your thoughts on this aspect? Do you have plans to review it?
