And is there a way to stop needing it, like some sort of verification?
Yeah, it’s annoying. You need to be verified. See how I’ve got the checkmark on my profile pic.
Basically just got to show your worth as a member here, engage in the community and prove you’re not a scammer.
how long does it take to be verified?
@Eth0_Sec#173898 Is there some sort of set requirement or just ‘be active’
Keep posting 
… U will be verified … have to make sure u are legit… and ur posts are accurate and true … It just takes awhile be verified … lots of people on here new one show up everyday … Mods busy … how long exactly few months … mayb a bit longer … but we are glad u are here helping us fight the fight 
@Draco#173911 I just joined and I wanted to draft my question before asking it. Does that mean i would need to post a few times before answering questions?
lol are you really in THAT much of a rush to post about scammers?! my posts usually get approved within a few hours so its not much of an inconvenience.
@JusticeForAll#173937 just post and mods will verify it … the deal is hafta post and the more valid posts n numbers … then eventually u will be verified and don’t have ta worry about your posts … OT take awhile to become verified … Just be patient and post stuff that is legit to the thread and true numbers … it just takes awhile be VERIFIED:blush:… But welcome to the scam bait team
@Eth0_Sec#173898 ah makes sense then
