Collective Memory continues to grow rapidly. As our community expands, it becomes increasingly important to make the platform’s evaluation system fair, transparent, and resistant to abuse. Our goal is to reward users who use the platform honestly, create high-quality content, and follow the community guidelines. These are the users who should receive the greatest benefits and rewards. To achieve this, we have introduced the CMQR Profile Rating System. Every user can now see their rating, understand which factors affect it, see why penalties are applied, and learn how to improve their score.

What is CMQR?

CMQR (Content Maker Quality Rank) is the quality rating of your Collective Memory account. It reflects how fairly and responsibly you use the platform. CMQR evaluates multiple quality signals, including:

fake or spam content;
compliance with platform rules;
the quality of the users interacting with your account.

CMQR is calculated on a scale from 0 to 100, where 100 represents the highest-quality account. The higher your CMQR, the more trust your account receives from the system and the fewer withdrawal restrictions apply. If your rating is between Fair and Excellent, you will be able to withdraw your full available balance. If your rating falls below Fair, you will first need to improve your score. CMQR is recalculated every 7 days, and once your rating improves, your earned funds will become available for withdrawal. You can monitor your 7-day CMQR progress directly in your profile: Profile → CMQR → Switch from “30d View” to “7d View”. Below, we’ll explain every CMQR signal in detail and provide examples so you can clearly understand how your rating is calculated and what affects it.

How CMQR Works

Every user starts with a base score of 100. The system analyzes your activity over a rolling 30-day period using 10 different quality signals. Each signal can either apply a penalty (reducing your score) or remain neutral if no issues are detected. Bonus signals can also add points to your rating. Your final CMQR score is always between 0 and 100. The higher your CMQR, the larger the portion of your earnings that becomes available for withdrawal. Your rating is recalculated daily.

Rating Tiers

Critical (0–20)
Poor (21–40)
Fair (41–60)
Good (61–80)
Excellent (81–100)

Penalty Signals

1. Best Friends Club

What percentage of your incoming stakes comes from your top 10 stakers. A high concentration means your earnings depend on a small circle of users rather than broad community support. Recommendation: Expand your network within the app. Discover new places, interact with new creators, and diversify your incoming support.

2. Sire Network

What percentage of your incoming stakes comes from your referrals or users who share the same affiliate. Recommendation: Build connections beyond your affiliate network. Explore new communities, support different creators, and diversify your staking relationships.

3. Gift Exchange

Reciprocal staking detected — you stake into another user, and they stake back into you with similar volumes (imbalance ≤ 40%). The system calculates the percentage of your incoming stakes involved in reciprocal staking. We encourage users to support quality content. However, in some cases this support turns into large-scale reciprocal token exchanges that are no longer connected to the actual quality of the content being published.

4. Family Business

Users who heavily stake into memories created by their own referrals in order to generate affiliate rewards using their own capital. We encourage users to support their referrals and help new creators get started. As an affiliate, you are often their first investor and their introduction to the platform. However, this support should remain natural. When it turns into excessive staking that is unrelated to content quality, it negatively affects the health of the ecosystem.

5. Geo Concentration

Geographic concentration of your stakers. Each staker’s home country is determined based on the location of their last 100 published memories. Healthy community support should come from a diverse range of countries. Recommendation: Expand your reach by discovering new locations, interacting with different communities, and attracting supporters from a wider variety of countries. Multiple accounts are using the same Device ID and have been active (performed transactions) during the evaluation period. Inactive accounts sharing the same device are not counted. If you would like to remove an old or unused account, please contact Support. Requests are reviewed within 30 days, and inactive accounts can be removed.

7. Content Flags

The percentage of your memories that have been marked as fake, NSFW, spam, or manipulation. All user reports are reviewed by moderators before they affect your CMQR. False or incorrect reports are not counted.

8. Spam / Low Quality

A high number of uploaded memories combined with a low average amount of incoming stake per memory indicates spam-like behavior. For example, after installing the app, don’t rush to upload 150 photos of your pets or photograph every dish in your kitchen. Collective Memory is designed to document your real life, real experiences, and the events happening around you.

9. Supporter Quality

The weighted average CMQR of users staking on your memories. If your supporters have a low-quality rating, your CMQR will also decrease.

Why does your rating depend on other users?

Everyone in Collective Memory is connected. When a user who publishes spam or manipulates the platform withdraws, for example, $500, those are $500 that are no longer available to reward someone creating genuine, valuable content. That’s why the overall quality of the ecosystem matters. We cannot treat stakes from blocked or fraudulent accounts the same way we treat stakes from legitimate users. Their influence should not carry the same weight because they violate platform rules and reduce the quality of the ecosystem. As a result, stakes coming from users with a low CMQR contribute less to your own rating.

10. Affiliate Quality

The average CMQR of users you referred. If your referrals have a low-quality rating, your CMQR will also decrease. Some users have more than 1,000 referrals, and we fully understand that it’s impossible to personally monitor every one of them. That’s exactly why CMQR exists. The system automatically evaluates how each referral uses the platform, so you don’t have to manually monitor their behavior.

Platform Quality Is Our Shared Responsibility

Collective Memory is built by people, for people. That’s why the quality of the platform depends on every one of us. Support great content, follow the community guidelines, discover new creators, and help new users grow fairly. The healthier our ecosystem becomes, the more opportunities and rewards are available to everyone. CMQR is designed not to punish users, but to protect honest participants and ensure that the platform remains fair for everyone.
