      I would assume that’s because, at least partially, because there’s an abundance of addons which automatically block blue checks.

        It wouldn’t be so bad if they didn’t also give them more weight in the algorithm. Any time you load a thread with more than a few comments, there’s like 5 trolls on top with bullshit comments.

      There are other reasons too.

      I’m not ashamed of being moderator on a online forum but I don’t want it to show next to my name when I’m not moderating.

      I’m also not ashamed that my truck is a 4x4 but I still don’t want the badge on my tailgate.
