    Hey there,
    WordPress used a user level system prior to version 2.0. The system has since been replaced with a more advanced capability of defining user roles. Please take a look:

    User Levels

    Prior to version 2.0, WordPress used a user User Levels system. This was replaced in version 2.0 with the much improved and more extensible Roles and Capabilities system you see today. To maintain backwards compatibility with plugins that still use the user levels system (although this is very much discouraged), the default Roles in WordPress also include Capabilities that correspond to these levels. User Levels were finally deprecated in version 3.0.

    User Level to Role Conversion

    ◾User Level 0 converts to Subscriber
    ◾User Level 1 converts to Contributor
    ◾User Level 2 converts to Author
    ◾User Level 3 converts to Editor
    ◾User Level 4 converts to Editor
    ◾User Level 5 converts to Editor
    ◾User Level 6 converts to Editor
    ◾User Level 7 converts to Editor
    ◾User Level 8 converts to Administrator
    ◾User Level 9 converts to Administrator
    ◾User Level 10 converts to Administrator

    Please not the above support document is for WordPress.org accounts. Although WordPress.com and WordPress.org are similar, they are coded to run on different software.
