People and friends
Find members of your community, add friends, and vouch for someone.
Finding people
Tap Talk, then People. There are three buttons:
- Friends: people you have added.
- Community: every member. Search by name, and sort by Newest, Name, Friends, Trusted or Active.
- Invites: invite someone new. See "Joining with an invite". If you have not joined yet, this button says Register.
Tap a person to see their profile: their trust badge, trades, reviews and posts.
Friends
- In Community, tap + Add next to a name. It changes to Added. Tap Added to take them off again.
- In Friends, tap the message button to start a chat, or the remove button, then Remove, to take someone off.
Friends are a shortcut for you. If you choose Friends for your contact details, only they can see them. See "Your profile".
Vouching for someone
Some members are chosen by the community to welcome newcomers. They can vouch for a new member, which gives that person a small credit line to start with. On the person's profile, they tap Vouch for Member and choose Light (25), Standard (50) or Deep (100). No beans leave the voucher's own wallet.
Who may vouch is decided by an admin or by a community Decision, never by a badge. See "Rules and how decisions work".
