I don't really understand what you mean but let me just write all I could get from you post.

First of all I check your profile and you have no flag created against you while the Op of the second link has three active flags so if no warning appears when you create a thread it could be because you have no flag (I suppose).

Like I said earlier I don't really your Op.


Edit:
Oops I just logged out my account and it displayed warning when I viewed your thread but when I'm logged in there's none, I guess it's because my Total time logged in: is more than seven days.
That's the only explanation I could possibly think of right now.

Not everyone with negative feedback has that flag, especially if you have positive trust it won't show up.

That kind of message is shown if one has active flag opened against him. The flag is different from negative feedback.
So there is feedback - positive, neutral, negative - that can come from DT, or somebody you trust, or somebody you distrust or don't care about, and this is visible in colors and numbers.
And there's the flag. The thing with the flag is that it can be supported or opposed. If it gets enough support it becomes active and you'll see it that visible.

But he has no flag created on his profile - https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=trust;u=806776

Just logout and check any of the topics OP opened up especially in the marketplace boards like the one in the link he shared. The warning in the red banner will show up.

Logged-out users will now see a warning in trust-enabled sections if more DT members neg-trust the topic starter than positive-trust him.

This increases the responsibility of DT members not to give negative trust for stupid reasons, but only for things that cause you to believe that the person is a scammer.

That's correct. I thought that OP has mistaken something.
TryNinja's quote clears it up completely. I didn't know either about this behavior.

So by DT members, did he mean only DT1 or DT2 as well? I always tend to think DT members is general (DT1 and DT2)

Take this user (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=trust;u=2852592) for example. He has negative feedback from 3 DT2 members and when you check some of the topics he opened, the banner with a warning does not show up.

I suspected the same, that means a real scammer could operate under the radar undetected just by having positive feed back.
Did you read the quote from theymos?
Having a positive feedback from a DT member would not matter if the negative feedbacks are higher.
Also, if a DT member gives a positive trust to a known scammer, they would not be on DT for long.

This new system has only 2 different flag types which punishes the supporters if they post a wrong flag, the third one which I have does not affect the supporters in any way. Thanks.
What do you mean punishes the supporters?

That quote predates the introduction of flags, and is no longer generally accurate. However, negative trust ratings created before the introduction of flags are "grandfathered in", and can generate a flag-like-warning, as a special case.

- If the number of pre-flags-system negative trust ratings is greater than the number of all positive trust ratings, a warning banner is shown for guests & low-login-time newbies.

In other words, this type of warning can be eliminated if the grandfathered-in negative ratings are deleted, or if new positive ratings are created to offset them, or some combination of the two.
