"How do some players become Second/Third Step without reaching a level requirement?"
A post started to gain a bit of traction. A handful of Unofficial Guidehand titled players responded with their own opinions.
"This is only applicable to Third Step. You need to be the level requirement for Second Step.", one would answer.
Someone else would comment, "No I'm pretty sure there existed Second Step players before they reached the required level. Also this doesn't answer the question."
"This is basically asking how to become Third Step, that method isn't known yet.", a regular of the forums commented.
"Yet they mention Second Step, as if the two things are connected right?", another would follow up.
Eventually the simple post become a bit of a discussion board. Several people offering their theories. Moderators of the forums felt unsure how to handle the post. There wasn't a guaranteed or surefire answer. Anyone who was already Third Step did not reveal their method.
