I’d really like to be able to provide proper links between my hero/villain concepts, but even going with spaces between certain parts of the link doesn’t work. You still get that “Sorry, you’re not allowed to post links” junk.
You have to become trusted level 3.
How does one do that?
I dont think we really know, but you have to visit many days in a row (50?) and ‘view’ like 2000 posts, or something.
Also hand out likes, or have posts liked.

Can’t click on it. But for all intents and purposes, it is a usable link.
To elaborate on the method you used, if you use the </> icon, it’ll format the text and allow you to post links, even if you’re not at the trust level to post hyperlinks.
i.e.
www.google.com
No one knows for certain, but this post seems to be pretty close to what people are experiencing.
You can also check your current trust level with this link.
I just tried doing this, but now the forum isn’t allowing me to edit my hero concept topics. What the hell?
We don’t know the exact requirements to reach Level 3, so we’ve been using Discourse default requirements, which are:
- In the last 100 days:
- Visited 50% of the days (50 days, not continuous)
- Replied to at least 10 different Topics
- Read 25% of Topics created in the last 100 days (capped at 500)
- Read 25% of Posts created in the last 100 days (capped at 20,000)
- Received 20 likes
- Given 30 likes
I don’t know why Blizzard would have locked something as small as posting links and images behind such big requirements (considering this is a very active forum), but it seems they have.
Actually I think it’s days in total
