So i spent a few hours guaranteeing 20 instances, and adding about 25 or 30 endorsements/censors/hesitations.
I love the idea and I think it has a LOT of potential.
Regardless I want to list it all here so the effected instances can be aware and if they wish respond/react. You can read my reason for endorsement of any of the below servers in the links provided.
I suppose this can also double as my #FollowFriday #FF !
Also please consider if you are an admin signing up and endorsing these and other instances as well.
**Endorsed / Garunteed**

I just want to thank you for the endorsement. Our mods do work hard to make this a fun instance for everyone which can be challenging at times.
It was my pleasuure and well earned...
I suggest you consider paying it forward, feel no obligation to endorse us but if you feel there are instances worthy of endorsement or garuntees I humbly suggest you add them.
Either way, happy to help

I will pass this to my mods as I normally only get involved as a tie-breaker, They are the ones who know what going on. As I always say this is the users instance I just host it 😜

Fine fine make me work lol..
For some reason it won't let me put reasons, After I submitted it went to NA
You type in a reason then hit enter and it will fo from text to a little box (or you use comma).. if its still free text when you submit it wont show.

Happy to help.
Keep in mind you can censor and hesitate on non-garunteed instances. But to endorse either you or someone who has been garunteed needs to garuntee them first.
The list of servers that are garunteed is confusingly called the "white list".
Now that I garunteed you you can garuntee up to 20 other instances, but you can endorse any number of instances.
You cant garuntee a server that is already garunteed, it will give a warning and **not** consume one of your 20 slots. You can also revoke a garuntee and free up one of your 20 slots. Revoking a garuntee will however invalidate everything in the trust tree below you if the orphaned instance doesnt find a new guarantee (or you regaruntee) within 24 hours.
I think thats more or less the gist of it. Keep in mind a guarantee only means "this server isnt predominately spam", it isnt an indication of trust itself beyond that.
