I'm trying to create a sub, but the sub name "Survivors of Psychiatry" I would like says "Please match the format requested. Alphanumeric characters" when I click the "Create Sub" button after a successful captcha.

Please advise.

How do I get to level 10 and where do I see what level I am at?

Getting upvotes on posts and comments boosts your level. You can click on your name to see your level.

Thanks. I have a "1" in the big circle on my profile. I assume this is my level. And:

Is the Levels algorithm a secret or is the working posted somewhere?

The points required for each level is here: https://poal.co/welcome

You get points by posting things and having them upvoted, by making comments and having them upvoted, and generally trying to be a decent member of the community. It's actually pretty easy to get to 10. Don't downvote unless it's spam.

I would say start by posting your SurvivorsOfPsychiatry posts in and then when you hit level 10 make your sub and advertise it in Subintro. Maybe will even move your old posts to the correct spot.
