Suggestion: blue ticks

[AirMax]

It would be good if verified knowledgeable commentators couod get a blue tick next to their name

Knowledgeable about what though?
Lots of people on the forums appear to be very knowledgeable about a number of different things, some of which may or may not be directly related to miles & points.

That said, I’m fairly sure I read some time ago that Rob was thinking about getting assistance from some knowledgeable and/or long-term posters. Might have been to do with forum moderation possibly.

There would have to be some form of formal accreditation – a lot of inaccurate information is posted on here as well as the helpful stuff!

Hmm good points.

I guess I am thinking on the lines of twitter.

« To get a blue tick, Twitter says your account “must be be authentic, notable, and active”. »

Doesn’t make much sense in a forum I think. For Twitter is basically for celebrities to make sure the account is really theirs.
I second the motion for moderators though. Rhys and Rob can’t do it all.

What we actually need is ‘report bad post’ which lets us see stuff quickly. Speaking personally, I am reading threads where I can possible contribute but not ones where I know I have nothing to say, so I may miss something.
