New Features Trophies and Levels - MalwareTips Ranking System

Hello @Vasudev,
It basically means that we verified some of the information on your profile and run some additional check-ups. Also we've checked your overall behavior on our community.
Having the Verified badge comes with a few perks and we plan to add more in the future so it's definitely good that you're Verified.
Thanks. I thought it was a bug and I thought background check involved Law enforcement teams. I'm glad MT staff members are doing the check and adding the tags based on helping out community members!

I also noticed that my status updated to the verified member. Thanks. We have the same member ranks in our forum. A new registered users automatically become as ,,a regular user,,.. After a while we move them to ,,Trusted,, group if they work in our forum helping other users. Also we have other groups like: Forum Friend, VIP, Journalist and group of ,,Banned,,.
 
@Jack Can you remove Like button from PMs? There's a slight possibility that user(s) can PM each other by engaging in long discussion and accumulating a large number of likes and trophy points eventhough they haven't helped or posted in Public threads.
Hey @Vasudev,
The Like button in Conversations (PM's) doesn't count at user promotions and it's also not counted in the member total Likes count. : )
 
Apart from the badges, why are there no ambassadors for the different products lol
For example I can be a Norton ambasador, since I can work with the product whilst asleep.
For Norton questions or issues it would make sense to ask me.
Someone else can be for Kaspersky, Eset etc. :D

Good idea in theory, but because in security forums you have a general animosity for representatives, some idiots haters will flame you because of that. When I became a vendor rep, and forfeit my moderator status here, I suddenly became a target of some baseless attacks (or maybe because I wasn't mod anymore and they were just cowards? Lol).
Reason you don't see active reps in security forums, they avoid them like the plague unless to ponctually promote a new version or product.
 
Where can I find the explanation of the batches: helper, top poster, well-known and content creator ?
Some are explained here
Sorry seems more like only content creator
