Anyone want to help a brother out and give me some votes? Apparently I need 1,000!?!? Is that because I only created my profile after I received my black belt and updated all my training history at one time? Any help is appreciated. Thanks!

You should add more evidence. Try to find photos of your promotions and add those to your promotion history. Look around at some other profiles for ideas.

The higher rank you are the more votes you need for verification.
I'd suggest adding lineage in the suggested field and pictures of your promotions and/or certificates for each rank. That's some of the first things that I generally look for.
Welcome to Beltchecker! I'll keep an eye out for that evidence and once its all in there I'll throw some points to your total.

BJJ BELTCHECKER | Can purple belts promote??

I have seen on Instagram today, two people locally to me have been promoted to blue belt by a purple belt. Is this allowed? I seem to remember it being allowed for remote locations discretionally if there are no black belts around but there are dozens of Black Belts locally to the area. - Brazilian Jiu Jitsu

Done. I added some photos from my promotions from purple/brown/black and certificates for the last two (the only ones I have).

I’d have to look back further for a blue belt promotion picture. Not sure I even took one way back then. Anything else I should do to make my profile more legit?

Exactly. Your lineage goes from you, to your instructor, to their instructor, to their instructor, as far back as you possibly can.
If you need help doing research there's people on our site that are really good at that game of detective.
Lineage is an important factor to me when I'm looking at someone's profile. I know that there are others that feel the same. Now that I can vote again I'm looking forward to seeing you trace your roots, and I'll be happy to verify.

If your promoting Coach is Alexander Larmey, then, when I read correct he got his blackbelt from Gustavo Pires, who got his blackbelt from Carlos Gracie Jr.

Got my lineage updated I believe. You should be able to see it separated by white to purple and brown to black.
