Trust Level 1 (Basic User) Requirements

[maidsafexd]

Thanks for that @stout77, but I still could not find user status in the summary, on badges…

[maidsafexd]

Don’t worry @stout77, I got it, it shows up as one of the badges. I am trust level 1

I have met the requirements but my Trust Level had not risen to “1”??? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

It is most likely this

@neo

No it is just the 60 minutes read time. If you read 46 minutes the profile shows 1 hour, but that is rounding. You need 60 minutes.

Thanks that was helpful

I’m trying to get SAFE browser working but getting a ‘no invites available’ on the maidsafe.net invite page. Is there something else I’ve missed or need to be doing, or is the availability of invites something that’s temporary or likely to change soon?

I have just encountered the same issue

[Japh]

I was having this problem too. Just tried again now though and it worked! (I realised I was refreshing the error page… needed to go back to the beginning.)

[Dealinwiththeissue]

yep, “and” would help

[nei1]

Thanks guys, I got there in the end and I’m now a SAFE Browser browser!

So I’m pretty sure I’ve met the requirements, according my summary page. How does this turn into an invite?

You can claim your invite by going to https://invite.maidsafe.net/

[MattSafeRussell]

It’s just kicked in. Just to confirm… it’s asking me to set my registered IP, is this purely for registration purposes? I don’t want this to be fixed based on my current location…

@MattSafeRussell

Yes, it’s necessary to be able to create an account and log in to the Alpha 2 network.

See this dev update for more info:

@maidsafe

Along with the rate limiter, one feature we’re working on this week is to have a form of client whitelist. Without features such as bootstrap cache and scalable proxy nodes, this is intended to help spread the load of clients amongst proxies and also limit the number of clients that are allowed to interact with the same proxies.

@maidsafe

The same system that gives out invitation tokens will also allow you to register your endpoint (IP address) with the network. Once you acquire a token (which can start out purely for forum users and then scale to people without forum accounts), you will also get an option to add yourself to the whitelist. This will assign four proxy nodes from the network and it will flag you as a whitelisted client on those 4 machines. Now when you run client applications, you will be limited to connecting to those 4 machines. Rate Limiter will also restrict a single client from an endpoint per node, this will thereby mean a maximum of four parallel client instances per token would be permitted by the network at any time. For example, if you use the browser and the email app, they will be forced to use 3 different proxy nodes (unregistered client + authenticator from browser and email app). This means you can use up to 2 client apps at a time excluding the browser. Also, for anyone with dynamic IP addresses (most of us), the invitation token system should also allow anyone to update their registered IP with the network.

You can update your registered IP if you want to connect to Alpha 2 from another location.

Understandable. Just came to sign up for testnet so much reading to do.

[typeplus]

This is a bit of a joke to be honest. I have been reading basically all posts (even ones that have no use to me) and its stuck on 1hr read time?

I am just trying to get involved with the testnet but I cant even get Trust Level to change!

[happybeing]

Maybe you have not always been logged in while reading?

[typeplus]

I have been mate. I really dont know whats going on.

[JPL]

You are trust level 1 now

[Lordhumungous]

Hi, newbie here…I received my ‘badge’ which I’ve read is considered to be Trust Level 1.

I’ve opened ‘Safe Browser’ but it says I need an ‘Invite Token’.

Are they randomly generated?

I seem to be stuck in a loop on how to obtain one. I came across Maidsafe today based on investment news from Identillect and wanted to see how this platform works but it has used up a chunk of my day to figure out. Yes, this is likely being perceived as a vent but it just seems like a barrier to entry having to run through all of these hoops which I have done and still do not have an invitation token.
