The trust levels are setup in such a way as to prevent spam and reward more active users with more privileges. For instance, new users are instantly placed in TL0. This limits them to creating 3 topics per day, can not post attachments, and can not flag posts among many other restrictions. TL0 is so restricted to prevent spam on the forum.

Once a user looks at 5 topics, read 30 posts, and spend at least 10mins reading posts the system automatically upgrades them to TL1. The removes all restrictions that where in place on TL0 as well as allowing the user to now send PMs and flag posts among other privileges.

To send a message to a user, you can click on their name and then click the Message button that appears. You must be at Trust Level 1 - Basic to be able to do this.
