I think with all the scams and non-serious devs creating a 0.1 version of the game before disappearing , and all the diseases and depressions we saw in the recent months we should make a list of trustworthy devs , so anyone who wanna invest some bucks on patreon can see if the dev he is gonna invest on is reliable or not , and this dev will be able to add a F95 approved sticker in his patreon page.

What do you think about it ?

Not going to work.

Because every person has a own opinion about who is trustworthy and who is not.
For some it might be someone who doesn't produce a update every month, and others are ok with 2 updates a year.
For some it might be someone who cancels every game after 2 updates, but the next one might be confident in a new project.

Also the fact that a creator can just make a new account and start over,
So that way a "sticker" has 0% use.

Also....
Why should a Developer care what F95 think about his game...Don't get me wrong, this is a huge website.
But 99.5% of the people haven't payed a penny in their lives and are only here to grab free things and complain.

I understand your idea, and to some extent i agree with it.
Would like nothing more then see a couple developers banned on this website or even the entire internet...But i know that a lot of people love those developers due to recent communications so it goes back to personal opinions

But i think in the end it's not only impossible and untrustworthy....But from a developers standpoint also pointless; )

About this i disagree; here there a possible public of more than one million person , that it's absolutely a dream to have this visibility just with Patreon or similar site. Could be many examples about some Dev that have 0 patrons Before F95 and after Explode ( Phillygames one of these ) ; about the second affirmation that here people don't give a penny and only grab , absolutely is false ; for example me i only sponsor ( actually i'm giving my small penny to 3 different Dev and Mod ) only after that i saw and played before the game here in the site .
For other thinks i agree with you .. it's not useful at all to create a list with " bad Behaviour or non serious " Dev

This is a pirate site, we have what we have. Should we ask devs to present an up to date health certificate too?
This was once a pirate site, but it turned legit, and is now a popular social media site.
Once Sam enables "friending" and "forum gold" millions will flock to F95Zone, and start updating their status on their profile page, showing which games they are currently playing, etc. Members will upload screencaps, and "watch me play porn games" videos.
members will be able to join guilds. voice actors guild, mages guild, modders guild...
devs will start making 2player adult games, and F95zone members will be able to play games with a random partner

it will be bigger than facebook and twitter combined

Perhaps then, a list of devs with good track records and how good they are to their community, A neutral, and ones who act like asshats/ Bad track record.
