Title: Is there a way to MARK trusted/credible members?
Post by: Poink on December 01, 2017, 03:05:01 PM
I am basically new here but learned a lot from this site already. THANK YOU!!!

One thing I noticed is there are lots of "noise" and it is very difficult to discern good from bad advise--i.e. who to trust.  Slowly I am finding people whose opinions are credible but having a far from perfect memory, I usually forget who they are after a while.  I think it would help a lot if there is a way we can MARK "trusted members".

Not sure if this will entail lots of time to implement, impossible, or an easy one but I'd ask it be considered if possible.

Thank you.

Not really. You could just bookmark their profiles I suppose. Alternatively, you can leave them positive feedback if you feel they're knowledgeable users stating as such.

Also, you can choose to ignore users who you feel contribute nothing or very little so their posts don't show up to you in future.

Knowing who to trust in terms of giving good and bad information/advice is going to be difficult. Person X can give very good information/advice on his first 2 topic replies and then give a bad one at his 3rd reply on a different topic. Therefore I don't think this can be a sort of "forum feature" nor something you can manage. The best thing you can do is always doublecheck on the facts given by a specific person by doing your own research and always think twice before following advice.

best of luck on your crypto journey.
