As Orion said, you need “regular status”, which is Trust Level 3.
From the Forum Guide in Community Discussion:
Trust Levels
Trust levels are a participation system on the forums. The more you post, like, reply, read, and visit the forums, the more you work your way to a higher trust level. Increased Trust levels grant additional privileges. Everyone who is new starts off at Trust Level 0 but will quickly climb by reading and visiting the forums within their first few days.

What are the names for each trust level? I’m a member, and I don’t know if I’m Level 1 or 2.
You can regain regular even if you got banned(i got it back after a time ban) but it will take a long time.
The flags are way harder to work around piss off the wrong people in this forums and you might get mass flagged.
Some users have multiple accounts to do that i have seen it happen and its a plain abuse of the system that to this day isnt fixed.
