CLEAR DISCOVERY

How Toplands works

Toplands helps players compare private servers and gives owners a structured way to publish, verify and promote a project without mixing advertising with organic votes.

01

For players

Useful information first, direct server links second.

DISCOVER

Discover

Choose a game and compare approved servers by version, rates, region, language, launch date and play style.

REVIEW

Review

Open the individual server page for a detailed description, official links, structured facts and moderation status.

VOTE

Vote

Support a server through the protected vote page. Eligible votes affect the organic ranking; advertising does not.

02

Trust, moderation and ranking

Public information and paid visibility have separate roles.

LISTINGS

Owner-submitted, then reviewed

New profiles remain outside the public directory until required information and ownership checks pass moderation.

RANKING

Votes determine organic order

Sponsored cards, borders and banners are labelled. Buying a campaign does not add votes or change the normal ranking position.

SAFETY

Clear destinations

Misleading claims, hidden redirects, malware, impersonation and unrelated community links can lead to rejection or removal.

03

Protected voting and rewards

The voting flow is designed to remain useful even as traffic grows.

24-HOUR WINDOW

One eligible vote per cooldown

The backend applies the 24-hour timer and records the next eligible time rather than trusting the browser alone.

ANTI-BOT

reCAPTCHA before acceptance

reCAPTCHA Enterprise and a single-use App Check token are validated by the Function before any vote is written. Network rate limits add another abuse barrier.

OWNER API

Reward only confirmed votes

The planned Vote API uses a short-lived session and one-time claim so a game server can grant a reward once.
