You are still level 1 "initiate"

I'm not sure, but I seem to remember you need a higher beginners level, one you could easily reach within a week(?) *

That's all meant as troll protection.

        I have updated the code to show a distinct message for this scenario, i.e. where the user is logged in but the node is very bad. The text for this case is:

        A reply falls below the community's minimum standard of quality and will not be displayed.
