I've been out of the loop on this forum for quite some time...haven't really been playing much the last nearly 10 years, but just dove back into it all. I just posted a "want to buy" ad in the classifieds, and noticed this warning in the ad.
I can't find any info in the FAQs, or through a search, on how to be verified. Any help? I'm not sure if it's even a big deal, but I don't like seeing people warned about me. :)

That's a question for Eric to answer.
I would presume it would take selling several items without any bad reports to get to the verified, but that's just supposition, only Eric knows what he wants done in order to be verified.
Edited to add: All "new sellers" get that warning posted as we've had so many try to scam our members that it's become necessary to warn everyone to be careful when dealing with newbies (or people who haven't been active for a long time).

Thank you!
I was curious about this after seeing this thread, as I could’ve sworn I saw myself shown as verified before. Found this page:

Thanks. I have never seen that before. Never to old to learn something new. I'll have an answer if that question is ever asked again.
To be fair to you both, I don't know how this link is discoverable from the website sidebar. I punched "banjo hangout verification" into DuckDuckGo and luckily it popped up as the first result, but it doesn't seem to be linked in the marketplace rules page.
