In certain categories, like Suggestions and DJ Hardware, you are able to vote on topics. We are interested in what topics are important to you! Let us know by voting on the topics you care about most.

Keep in mind that you only have a limited number of votes to use, so use them wisely! The number of votes you have available is based on your current [Trust Level in the Community Forums](https://blog.discourse.org/2018/06/understanding-discourse-trust-levels/). It works like this:

**Trust Level 0 - New** | 4 votes

**Trust Level 1 - Basic** | 8 votes

**Trust Level 2 - Member** | 12 votes

**Trust Level 3 - Regular** | 16 votes

**Trust Level 4 - Leader** | 20 votes

  
Our team tracks the most voted-for topics in the community and uses this feedback to improve djay. So get out there and make your voice heard!  
  

_Disclaimer:_ While we take all feedback seriously and welcome all community suggestions, please keep in mind that a myriad of factors go into making decisions for developing the apps. For this reason, topics with high votes may or may not be implemented in the future. That said, **your votes truly help us understand what you want to see in the future… so please get involved** , and thank you for your participation!

Hi everyone, I’m happy to report that we have revised the Discourse voting system further. The new numbers are as follows:

- Trust Level 0 - New | 2 votes
- Trust Level 1 - Basic | 30 votes
- Trust Level 2 - Member | 100 votes
- Trust Level 3 - Regular | 300 votes
- Trust Level 4 - Leader | 300 votes

> **[Understanding Discourse Trust Levels](https://blog.discourse.org/2018/06/understanding-discourse-trust-levels/)**
>
> The user trust system is a fundamental cornerstone of Discourse. Trust levels are a way of…

In addition, the system will now let you know how many votes you have remaining when your level drops below 100 votes.
