F-list is a long-running roleplay community with a clean security record and a SubscribeStar support banner, but its public review rating is low.
F-list (f-list.net) is an online roleplaying community that has been registered for over 17 years. Technical checks are clean — the browser threat feed reports no threat warning and the site's connection uses valid encryption — and the site lists a management contact address on its own domain for confidential complaints and appeals. The one adverse note is a public review aggregation that rates the site 1.9 out of 5 from 13 reviews, which is a reputation concern rather than a technical or payment-safety finding. On balance the site shows none of the mechanics of a scam, but the unfavorable review sentiment keeps it out of the top Safe band.

01 · Investigation Brief
Investigation Brief
F-list (f-list.net) is an online roleplaying community that has been registered for over 17 years. Technical checks are clean — the browser threat feed reports no threat warning and the site's connection uses valid encryption — and the site lists a management contact address on its own domain for confidential complaints and appeals. The one adverse note is a public review aggregation that rates the site 1.9 out of 5 from 13 reviews, which is a reputation concern rather than a technical or payment-safety finding. On balance the site shows none of the mechanics of a scam, but the unfavorable review sentiment keeps it out of the top Safe band.
A long-established community with a documented management contact
The registrable domain f-list.net is 6286 days old, which places its registration roughly seventeen years back. Independent research also describes a long visible domain history of about 17 years, and the site itself presents as a roleplaying community managed by a named management team. A long-lived domain is not proof of good conduct on its own, but it does mean the site is not a freshly created throwaway.
The site provides a contact mailbox on its own domain (management@f-list.net) and describes it as the route for confidential complaints and appeals. Running contact and moderation channels through a domain-managed address is consistent with an active community platform rather than an anonymous drop-and-run operation.
Clean technical checks, mixed public reputation
The saved security checks returned no active malware or phishing detections: the browser threat feed reported no threat warning, and the saved TLS check found a valid encrypted connection. These results mean no detections were observed at scan time; they do not by themselves certify the operator or the content on the site.
The main adverse signal is a public review aggregation that assigns the site 1.9 out of 5 stars based on 13 reviews from public sources. That is unfavorable sentiment from an external source, not a malware, phishing or payment finding, and the underlying reviews were not individually examined here. It is enough to lower confidence in the site's public reputation but not enough to establish a specific scam mechanism.
The only commercial call to action is an optional support banner
A screenshot of the site shows a banner with the text "Want to support us? Join our SubscribeStar!". This is a voluntary donation/subscription route on a third-party creator-funding platform, not a checkout, a paywall or a redirect that forces visitors through an order flow. Nothing in the reviewed evidence ties this banner to a deceptive billing, refund or withdrawal mechanism.
Why the score is 78
The saved checks found no material threat, but the evidence was not strong enough for the highest Safe tier. Coverage remains separate so missing sources cannot be mistaken for clean results.

The plumbing behind the site — who registered it, how it’s encrypted, where it’s hosted, and where it links out. A valid certificate or a calm server doesn’t mean the business is honest — scam sites pass these checks too. Use this to corroborate the verdict, not to overturn it.

This saved scan found no material threat, but the evidence was not strong enough for the highest Safe tier.
f-list.net has operated for years and this review found no material threat — a long track record, though it is never a guarantee on its own.
Contact Verification
Saved contact details can help identify the operator. Their presence supports traceability; it does not prove the business is trustworthy.
- Contact email on the site's own domain (management@f-list.net).
Domain & Encryption
Cloudflare DNS is used by legitimate and scam sites alike, so it does not identify who runs the site.
Certificate issued for f-list.net.
A shared Cloudflare address answers for many sites, so it is not the site's own server and says nothing about who runs it.
