What you post matters.

Hey everyone, Isacc here.

If you’ve been browsing the site recently, you’ve probably noticed some wild new colored badges popping up next to people's usernames.

I built this system to automatically reward awesome members and call out the toxic ones, all without the mod team having to manually review every single post. I didn't want it to be overly complicated, so here is the simple breakdown of how the system decides your rank.

The Deep Scan

Behind the scenes, the system is always reading. Whenever it evaluates your profile, it grabs up to your last 100 posts and your last 30 threads. It strips out all the links, images, and formatting, and just looks at your actual vocabulary.

From that text, it calculates two msystemn things:

• Quality Score: This goes up if you get a lot of likes, have followers, post status updates, and use a wide, diverse variety of words.
• Threat Score: This goes up if you use toxic language, spam, have active warnings on your account, or look suspicious (like constantly hopping between different VPNs).

Trigger Words & Custom Badges

This is where it gets fun. I've trained the system with a custom "Lexicon" dictionary. If you use certain groups of words a lot, the system will lock onto your specific "persona" and give you a custom badge.

For example:

• Talk about fishing a lot (using words like bass or trout)? The system will tag you as a FISH MAN.
• Talk about coding (using words like dev, build, or coder)? You’ll earn the HACKER MAN badge.
• Constantly bringing up Florida or gators? You get the FLORDA MAN rank.

The Default Ranks

Don't worry if you don't fit into a weird niche. If you are just a normal, active user who participates without causing trouble, the system automatically defaults you to TRUSTED.

If your Quality Score gets really high from posting great content that people like, you get bumped up to the blue BASED POSTER badge.

On the flip side, if your Threat Score spikes because you're being highly toxic, spamming, or breaking the rules, the system will override everything and brand you as a SUSPECT or a red SHIT POSTER so everyone knows exactly what to expect when they open your threads.

The TL;DR: Just be cool, post good stuff, and watch your badge evolve. The system is always calculating, so your rank will dynamically update as your posting habits change!

Let me know what you guys think.
