What happened to trusted users?
It feels like it's been multiple months since I've seen any discussions marked with "trusted" on them, or seen comments by people with red pfps.
I'm assuming it's been a while since there was applications for becoming a trusted a user. But even then there was only like 3-4 members I can remember that were trusted. I'm not gonna name names, but are any of them still out here?

4 of us remain but aren't very active (at least I'm not) and the rest quit/were removed from the program. The program itself has been in limbo for quite some time.

Who are the other 2 anyways? I only see you and Boss. I remember back in 2018 when I was in the forums as well there were like very many Trusted users, something happened and they all disappeared.

Fire Hazard and twisted monkey are still in the program with me and Boss but aren't very active. I think Fire Hazard lost interest and Twisted has a busy life outside of video games I believe.

As Boosted Dwight mentioned, at one point there were a lot more of these trusted members who, as far as I'm aware, were much more active.
Something happened which lead to the four we have now. Inactivity is expected from when people have been playing the game for so long which is most likely why you havent seen much, as well as a possible demotivation after what occurred. Maybe we'll see more trusted members in the future so we see more threads being marked with such.
Regardless of activity or what happened in the past, I'm happy with the four we have now as they are respectable members of the forum.

I don't think it's too much to reveal that one member was removed from the program, either justly or unjustly can be argued either way, which lead to a lot of other members resigning voluntarily in protest.

I mean,what was the point of this whole "Trusted" thing anyway?

I'd rather see a streamer posting around here like it's reddit

Well it was supposed to be a program for forum users who were helping around and creating a positive environment. (Ex: FireHazard always took care of the Ask a Question section of the forums with a very welcoming attitude)
