Updated weightingVotes: 10% → 5% (votes still matter, just less than before) Uptime: 25% (unchanged) Reviews: 25% (unchanged, now freshness-weighted) Vouches: 35% (unchanged, now freshness-weighted) P2W Badge factor: 5% → 10%  Freshness (time decay) for Reviews &amp; VouchesReviews and vouches now fade out over 28 days, so rankings reflect what’s happening now. Day 0: 100% Day 7: 75% Day 14: 50% Day 21: 25% Day 28+: 0%  Why: This prevents “one big month” from carrying a server forever, and encourages steady engagement.  Discord vouch improvements Monthly vouch limitUsers can now vouch once per calendar month (per server). This reduces spam and makes vouches more meaningful.  Better announcementsServer vouches now announce in:  the server’s configured vote/vouch channel, and the main TMS vouches channel  Reviews also post into the TMS vouches channel (via webhook)  Cleaner channel structure (TMS Discord)New servers + P2W status updates Vouches + reviews feed Monthly reset announcements Per-server vote/vouch channels (one per server)   FixesFounder crown display is now correct (no more weird symbol soup). Status indicator now renders properly. Vote/vouch emojis now display consistently.   Known issue we’re actively addressing Some TrueRank scores may appear inconsistentA small number of servers may show different TrueRank values in different places due to an older cache format still being used in some cases.  What this means: The ranking logic is correct, but a stale cached value may be displayed until cache sync is fully cleaned up.  What to expect  Servers relying mostly on older reviews/vouches may see their TrueRank drop. Servers with recent activity should see more accurate (often higher) placement. “Vote-only” strategies are less effective than before. The best path is now the obvious one: uptime + real feedback + ongoing community trust.]]></description><pubDate>Wed, 14 Jan 2026 00:55:58 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>TMS Verification bot change log Jan 12th 2026</title><link><![CDATA[https://topmcserver.com/forums/topic/10-tms-verification-bot-change-log-jan-12th-2026/?&do=findComment&comment=10]]></link><description>Suggestions Forum + Bot CommandsWe&#x2019;ve added a new Suggestions system to keep feedback organized and easy to discuss.

Spotlight servers (coming at launch) will stand out with a bold location label. Copy IP straight from the list — no more clicking in just to grab the address. Server types are now searchable, making it much easier to find the exact vibe you want.  ✏️ Server Editor ImprovementsYou can now add a Discord invite link directly while editing your server. The editor also got a fresh new look to make updates quicker and nicer to use.  🔥 Server View Major UpgradeThe Join Discord button is now placed right below the “About us” box (where your eyes already are). If you’ve made a blog post on our website, you can now push updates directly onto your server page from the list. It’s RSS-friendly, meaning you can pipe your updates into Discord (or wherever) via RSS — update once, and it propagates everywhere. One post. Many places. Maximum blamo.    More polish and launch goodies on the way.]]></description><enclosure url="https://topmcserver.com/uploads/monthly_2026_01/spot1.png.de79f391cd8678f9fe60a23ba70389da.png" length="144510" type="image/png"/><pubDate>Wed, 07 Jan 2026 06:08:05 +0000</pubDate></item></channel></rss>
