The all new BST Legit - Show buyers you are even more trustworthy

**John** · 10-28-2009, 02:34 PM

PbNation developed BST Trust to help users buy and sell online with confidence. So far it has been an overwhelming success, but we wanted to give exceptional users even more recognition for being positive members of the Buy, Sell, Trade community.

This is why we just created the new BST Legit. These are PbNation members of BST Trust that have distinguished themselves by being an active part of not only PbNation but our BST community as well.

This new enhanced BST Trust system enables an upgraded "Legit" user badge underneath their usernames every time they post anywhere on the site so that other users can see that they are BST Legit. As long as they are subscribed to the service, they'll be recognized as BST Legit member in every post they make on PbNation.

The new system also adds a new Legit header across the top of all threads they create while BST Trusted (like this one) showing they are a trusted member of BST Legit and adds a small Gold Trusted image next to the thread title in the forum view.

In order to be Legit, one must have:
- An active BST Trust subscription
- 25 Positive feedback or more
- 98% Positive feedback overall
- No more than 2% neutral feedback
- At least 100 Posts
- Have been a PbNation member at least 1 Year

If you qualify for BST Legit, just sign up for BST Trust and you'll be instantly upgraded to Legit status.

The thread in the asm forum never said we would have to pay for it and the initial criteria didn't either. It's too obvious this is ALL for the money.

Oc course it did.

Well I, along with I believe many other people, seen it as free and earned, not just an upgrade after you buy it.

Well, you misread. I'm sorry you don't approve of the new program. The good news is, you're not obligated to participate.

I really hope I'm not. If everyone was I don't see many people staying here!

I think that should have been pointed out more in the original thread. Many members took it as I did.

It should be 50 positive.

**John** · 10-28-2009, 04:54 PM

The problem was that at 50 positive, there was almost no one who qualified. We want it to be exclusive, just not sure we wanted it that exclusive.

Found a bug that was preventing you from getting yours, and fixed it. You're good to go!
