If it helps - my recommendation would be you keep TL0, TL1, and TL2. I wouldn’t bother much with the TL0 → TL1 transition myself (on a forum with any activity this is trivial to overcome for real users, but YMMV), poking at the TL1 → TL2 transition might be worthwhile. But at TL2 your users can invite people to the forum, and you could consider changing the default invited user level to TL1. So if you’re reasonably sure your users won’t invite spambots to the forum (or some other undesirable member, who wouldn’t get from TL0 to TL1), your TL2 users can bring in new people at TL1. So you skip TL0 for users you’re reasonably okay with being TL1 immediately but keep it in place as a spam protection measure. Ya know, let the built in system work for you a bit, even if you don’t want to use the whole thing. --- _[View the full topic](https://meta.discourse.org/t/is-it-possible-to-completely-disable-trust-levels/42592)._
