Title: Tips on increasing my TRUST level on bitcointalk? Post by: Jamie_Boulder on July 02, 2014, 01:41:08 PM Hi team,
I'm looking to participate in trust-required trades with other users on this forum sometime in the near future however I'm new and have nothing going for me in terms of reputation at the moment (as we can all see lol). Does anyone have tips on how to achieve this? am by no way looking for a quick/easy way of going about this just a push into the right direction is all. I've thought about taking loans that I don't need and just returning the BTC with the interest they demand etc but that's basically doing the opposite of what I'm trying to achieve (basically buying my rep). Please advise. Also to stimulate some further discussion for those not interested in helping me; I've noticed cryptobetting removed just-dice from it's highscores :( #RIP (http://cryptobettingindex.com/) Title: Re: Tips on increasing my TRUST level on bitcointalk?

Exactly as you said, there is no easy way to gain trust in a short period of time. You need to build it slowly with trades. I've thought about taking loans that I don't need and just returning the BTC with the interest they demand etc but that's basically doing the opposite of what I'm trying to achieve (basically buying my rep). That is not a good idea, as explained by Kluge in a sticky post in the lending section. General good practices:

Post by: gondel on July 02, 2014, 02:08:49 PM The option with the multiple loans is not really an option. Do not even try to ask for loan especially if you do not have collateral. My suggestion is that you contribute with something to the forum members. Also try to trade different things which might interest the people around here. With the time you will get organic trust . There is no chance you will get fast real positive trust. Whish you all the best and beware of scammers.

Post by: commandrix on July 02, 2014, 03:17:44 PM Yeah, it's tough to get any trust around here, I tell ya. :P But here's a list of members who provide escrow services; I hear that makes a good start. (Pick somebody who has a positive trust rating.) https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=108716.0
Title: Re: Tips on increasing my TRUST level on bitcointalk? Post by: shogdite on July 02, 2014, 03:41:03 PM Takes a lot of time to build up trust levels, there's been so many scams including several hero member users on this forum.
I always check users trust feedback to get a general idea of their trustworthiness Title: Re: Tips on increasing my TRUST level on bitcointalk? Post by: lynn_402 on July 02, 2014, 03:59:47 PM Not many people here are willing to sell BTC through Paypal, so you could fill that gap with someone with at least one trust point.
That's risky, but if the trade is small that would be a good way to boost your trust level. Title: Re: Tips on increasing my TRUST level on bitcointalk? Post by: Nathan101 on July 02, 2014, 05:32:30 PM I am not so experienced in this field. Can anyone describe me how trust level works? What is the benefit of trust level?
Title: Re: Tips on increasing my TRUST level on bitcointalk? Post by: Candystripes on July 02, 2014, 05:33:21 PM Just do as many smooth deals as you can, open an exchange.
Title: Re: Tips on increasing my TRUST level on bitcointalk? Post by: Carnage on July 02, 2014, 05:34:46 PM Be honest with your trades and don´t scam.
Title: Re: Tips on increasing my TRUST level on bitcointalk? Post by: bitcoinforhelp on July 02, 2014, 05:47:12 PM Just trade, no simplier way than that. No artificial/special ways needed
Title: Re: Tips on increasing my TRUST level on bitcointalk? Post by: Injust on July 02, 2014, 05:53:34 PM OP has an interesting situation that's kind of similar to mine :)
I've been on this forum for a while, mostly just lurking, and haven't really participated in the community much. Need to build my trust as well :) Title: Re: Tips on increasing my TRUST level on bitcointalk? Post by: cp1 on July 02, 2014, 05:55:33 PM I'm looking to participate in trust-required trades with other users on this forum sometime in the near future Can you be more specific? Title: Re: Tips on increasing my TRUST level on bitcointalk? Post by: hilariousandco on July 02, 2014, 06:08:33 PM The only way to build trust is to do it the hard way and actually build it over time. Nobody is going to trust you if your sole reason for acquiring trust is just to appear trustworthy, and people are smart enough here to see through people who take out loans that they don't need just to build up trust. Doing so may even have a negative impact on you and might even get you negative feedback as this is a classic scammer trait. If you genuinely want to build up some rep and trust just stick around and contribute to the forum and do trades when and where you can and you will slowly but surely build up both.
Title: Re: Tips on increasing my TRUST level on bitcointalk? Post by: cech4204a on July 02, 2014, 06:31:16 PM Do little trades and you will be fine, than it will get higher by time. You can also make some services and you can get trust from there also.

Title: Re: Tips on increasing my TRUST level on bitcointalk? Post by: CEG5952 on July 02, 2014, 07:40:00 PM There is no easy way, and no reason to rush. Reputation is earned around these parts. If you take part in several escrowed trades that go very smoothly, you may get positive trust from a trusted escrow that may be on the default trust list. Best to just stick around and let time do its thing.
Title: Re: Tips on increasing my TRUST level on bitcointalk? Post by: chaosPT on July 02, 2014, 08:23:39 PM I think what he mean is How to get + trust rating green color line positive rating and how do bitcointalk determine the trust rating and turn it to green color .

I'm sure there is a thread that discusses this in Meta -- that's where forum information like this is. My assumption just from experience is that a certain number of positive trust from default trust members will give you "green" trust. Title: Re: Tips on increasing my TRUST level on bitcointalk? Post by: cp1 on July 02, 2014, 08:37:59 PM Yeah, you have to get one of these people to trust you:

Post by: CEG5952 on July 02, 2014, 08:53:23 PM Yeah, you have to get one of these people to trust you: Code: DefaultTrust Yeah, it needs to be from the DefaultTrust list. However, I noticed that people with only one DefaultTrust positive feedback don't seem to get the green band. Title: Re: Tips on increasing my TRUST level on bitcointalk? Post by: Candystripes on July 03, 2014, 05:38:49 AM Just going to say, good luck trying to get one of those to trust you :)
Title: Re: Tips on increasing my TRUST level on bitcointalk? Post by: TrailingComet on July 03, 2014, 06:26:47 AM Trade and engage with people with integrity and credibility
Try to capture engagements by asking for recommendations after a deal Over time your Trust level will reflect this Title: Re: Tips on increasing my TRUST level on bitcointalk? Post by: Gimmelfarb on July 03, 2014, 06:57:28 AM why would you need to increase your trust anyway? you can always just use a trusted escrow for transactions here. over time, you will become more known and reputable, but there is no quick and easy way.
(well actually, i have heard of less-than-reputable people selling positive trust, but not too sure on the details) Title: Re: Tips on increasing my TRUST level on bitcointalk? Post by: dothebeats on July 03, 2014, 08:21:35 AM Well to be honest it's hard to trust someone in the world of cryptocurrency. It's hard to gain trust and on the other hand, it's also hard to give trust. Trust takes time to build and takes seconds to be destroyed. To build trust, there's only one thing I know of: be trustworthy and that's all.
Title: Re: Tips on increasing my TRUST level on bitcointalk? Post by: BunsenBurner on July 03, 2014, 10:01:31 AM Yeah, you have to get one of these people to trust you: Code: DefaultTrust The default trust list changes from time to time, so it is better to check the page https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=trust by removing everyone other than "DefaultTrust" in your trust list. :) Title: Re: Tips on increasing my TRUST level on bitcointalk? Post by: BunsenBurner on July 03, 2014, 10:06:42 AM Yeah, it needs to be from the DefaultTrust list. However, I noticed that people with only one DefaultTrust positive feedback don't seem to get the green band. Not necessarily. For example, Cilantro (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=profile;u=125041) has only got 1 positive feedback and he has a light green score of +1. :) Title: Re: Tips on increasing my TRUST level on bitcointalk? Post by: medUSA on July 03, 2014, 10:33:26 AM OP is still a junior member and registered on this forum for less than a month. A "+1 trust tag" is not much of a confidence booster anyway. Just post responsibly and you will build up a good reputation in due time.
I have been here for over a year, a zero trust rating never bothered me. Title: Re: Tips on increasing my TRUST level on bitcointalk?

Title: Re: Tips on increasing my TRUST level on bitcointalk? Post by: Jamie_Boulder on July 04, 2014, 03:06:30 PM Some very helpful responses here. Thanks team.
Title: Re: Tips on increasing my TRUST level on bitcointalk? Post by: InwardContour on July 05, 2014, 03:41:15 AM You simply need to complete trades with others on the forum. You can also create a reputation thread for people to post on for when you have a successful trade.
With that being said you should really not be trying to increase your trust for the sole purpose of increasing your trust. You should simply trade as you normally would and use escrow when appropriate (it is pretty much always appropriate to use escrow) Title: Re: Tips on increasing my TRUST level on bitcointalk?

Title: Re: Tips on increasing my TRUST level on bitcointalk? Post by: Unkle on July 05, 2014, 03:43:39 PM Head on over to the marketplace and do some trades and you'll soon become trustworthy I reckon.
Title: Re: Tips on increasing my TRUST level on bitcointalk? Post by: yatsey87 on July 05, 2014, 03:45:23 PM Trust is hard to come by for a reason. You can attempt to game it or gain it legitimately over time, but if you're honest and do lots of trades you will get it eventually. Don't try to rush it just so people think you're trustworthy though.

Indeed, it isn't necessary to have positive trust in order to complete trades in the marketplace. People use trusted escrows for a reason, and even if you are dealing with known people, it is good to use escrow whenever possible, especially on larger deals.
