Reputation System
Trust is everything on YoTop10. Your reputation score reflects how much the community can rely on you, and it affects what you can do on the platform.
How Trust Works
Everyone starts with a neutral trust score. From there, your actions move it up or down. Getting your posts approved, writing helpful comments, and earning community votes all build trust. Trolling, spamming, or posting low-quality content tears it down.
Why It Matters
Higher trust means more posting ability. Trusted contributors can post more frequently, participate in moderation, and have a bigger voice in community decisions. It is a system that rewards people who make the platform better.
The Tiers
Troll
Lowest tier. Restricted posting. Earned by repeated harmful behavior. It is hard to climb back from here.
Neutral
Where everyone starts. Basic posting ability. Build your reputation from here by contributing quality content.
Trusted
Earned through consistent good contributions. More posting power and a stronger voice in the community.
