Hi, BJJ in my country is very new and we could not get anyone to give us enough points to be fully verified and our coach do not have a profile here how to i go about it ?
Hello,
1. Complete profile
2. Sit back and wait till you get verified.
3. Take part in the discussions on the forums.
That's it.

completed my profile today and got 300/1000 points pretty quick.

when I saw the deal with IBJJF, I wanted to come and jump on as a way to support what you guys do.

I am a first degree black belt, life long martial artist, with black belts in other styles as well. I am so sick of what Jiujitsu has turned into and love the new wave of no politics decentralized pure training.

here is a pic of my last IBJJF ID from 2018 that I have no plan on renewing because I am sick of them anyway. plus a pic of my MMA ID from the days when I used to be an athlete LMAO.

So I just found out about this website and thought it was a cool idea but I'm trying to find information as to the details of verifying my profile.

For example, I tend to be cautious about giving away certain information but in order to verify my name I have to give them a billing document with proof of my name. How do I know if that information is secured?

Thanks for any advice. :)

Cover the important - private stuff on the bill or document. I used tape over that stuff on my drivers license. No confidential info was compromised.

Kenneth Freire, don't forget to also specify your instructor who promoted you to blue belt.

I have completed my profile and added some photos from my belt promotions. Hopefully this will aid in hastening my verification process.

I will also share it with other practitioners at my club, and community, as it seems like a pretty cool idea.

If it takes too much effort, then it will keep away the scammers.
I also don't want to lower the entry requirement of effort to join the site and thereby compromise with the functionality. If people could get away with half empty profiles, then there would be so many fun things and statistics that would never work.

Some people don't wanna invest any effort in this project and that's totally fine - then it's just not for them. This is a quality over quantity social media platform :)

95% is in indeed pretty crazy. Time to do some promotion and bring in some new users soon :)
It is difficult for people to see how they can get verified when most of the community they know are either not on the site or shown as pending.

But looking at the stats, all they have to do is create a proper, well documented profile and have a bit of patience :)

Please use the 'introduce yourself' topic instead of asking for people to check out / verify your profiles :)

Completed everything I could for my profile but I'm confused about how this is supposed to work. So i have to be verified by people on beltchecker for each belt rank i have or get? I dont know anyone on beltchecker, how am I suppose to get verified? My affiliation isnt even on the site. I imagine with growth this could be amazing, but as of now...i guess I'm just gonna be unverified for the foreseeable future.

Been trying to finish my profile but this site isnt exactly user friendly when your profile picture keeps getting rejected.

It’s because you’re not reading the instructions on the verification page and doing it wrong :) I promise we’re not rejecting someone just because we’re unfriendly to the users :D

I used my drivers license but scribbled out on editor any information that wasn't 100% necessary.
My wife used our marriage license because she is yet to get ID with her new name.
Remember these are all individually verified by humans... With human eyes. They will make allowances without doubt. Bills are simply a suggestion not a must. You could use a bill and perhaps scribble over the sensitive information or what information you deem sensitive. As long as there is something official about it and e.g. Bank paperwork and your details that should suffice.
