Hi, some projects and companies are now using Discourse, including a project I’m extremely active in! In this one, however, I realized something quite confusing! So far 2 members (and probably not even all I’ve seen) have member status even though they only registered on the same day!
As already mentioned, it is about the first point, the user only registered today! As you can see on the screen, the status was only granted 3 hours ago! Strange, it took me 1.5 years (I’ve been there since 2020)
You’ll need to contact the admins of the forum and ask them for an explanation. As suggested, there are many reasons that users could have some other trust level.
