I would rather agree with strict rules in registering (not ranking up) in this forum, such as applying KYC or other strict rules before registering or members who have joined for a long time (no difference)..
Regarding KYC part (something that will
never happen on this forum), you might wanna reconsider your stance. I suggest that you read topic made by @1miau
Why KYC is extremely dangerous and useless where it is nicely explained dangers of giving your documents and info to 3rd parties, and that s not as good and effective as you might think. KYC is not a solution, if anything it is part of the problem.
