We’ve been pushing a big core upgrade to the server list + server pages, and it’s now in a much better place.
⭐ TrueRank is now the primary ranking
Instead of “who has the most votes” being the whole story, TrueRank is now our default way to rank servers on the site.
TrueRank is a 0–100 score that’s weighted using:
🤝 Discord Server Vouches
⭐ Reviews (rating + count)
⏱️ Uptime (from our metrics sampling)
🗳️ Votes
✅ A small bonus for Verified NON-P2W
This means servers that are actually active + trusted will rise, even if they aren’t vote-botted into orbit.
✅ Verified P2W Status is live
Servers can now show one of these statuses on listings:
✅ NON-P2W (Verified)
⚠️ P2W (Verified)
❓ UNVERIFIED (not reviewed yet)
Important: UNVERIFIED ≠ P2W — it just means we haven’t checked it yet.
📱 Browse page improvements
We rebuilt the browse cards so:
TrueRank is much more visible
Mobile layout is cleaner
Tooltips/explanations are being added so it’s not “mystery numbers”
What’s next
Next focus is TR1 completion + clarity + trust systems:
TrueRank explanation everywhere (hover/tap tooltips + a “how it’s calculated” page)
Server View page polish: show TrueRank + P2W status clearly on the server profile
Admin tools cleanup: easier toggles for Verified NON-P2W / Verified P2W / Unverified + better owner display
Trust & Safety workflow: process + logging for how verification decisions are made
If you spot layout bugs (especially on mobile) or you’ve got opinions on the TrueRank weighting, drop feedback in the right channel — we’re iterating fast.
