Voted for ya, welcome to beltchecker and congrats!

I don’t have a certificate from my professor but they have signed for my IBJJF membership. I’m new to Beltchecker, could I please have some votes to verify my profile? Thank you in advance. 🙏🏼

Hey Chris, welcome at beltchecker!

That You are recognized by IBJJF doesn‘t mean a lot to many of the checkers here (me included).
It would help if You could post any evidence for Your BB-promotion (i.e. a picture or links to social media posts).
Otherwise we have to check social media etc. on our own.
-Not a cool job (especially for old farts like me who usually avoid insta, fb & co).

Hi Sebastian, here’s a photo with Professor Leo Arruda at the 2024 end of year grading.

Check!
If You change the name of who promoted You to Leo Arruda (or add him) votes will follow easier.🤙🏼

Hi everyone. Asking to be verified as I just received my black belt. Thanks in advance.

Congrats on your black belt! That is awesome!

How important do you think filling out lineage or competition results are in getting verified by others?

I wouldn't say it is top most but it helps. certain folks will NOT vote for you unless your lineage is in your profile and if a black belt you must have been promoted by a 2nd degree etc.

For most though having promotion pics and certificate if applicable is fine. I've never seen comp results sway anyone. I mean, I guess if you are only a competitor then maybe but I've been here since almost the beginning and haven't seen comp results be the reason someone isn't verified, etc.


What I have seen that really helps people is to be active on the forums and whatnot, and then people become more exposed and then are more likely to vote ya up, etc....
