Title: Deffault trust
Post by: gondel on September 10, 2014, 08:42:12 AM
Hello all :)
Just wandering how is the trust list made? Is it updated somehow and someone adding new people on that trust list or it is made from the beginning of the forum existence? Is there a way to get to the trust network? Thanks!

You need to get put on there by someone who deems you trustworthy.

Thanks man for the quick answer. :)
I understand now. But dont you think lot of people who were into the trust system sold their accounts somehow and now this trust list is not very secure as nobody knows who is using a certain hero account for example?

Users in level 1 are added by user 'DefaultTrust', users in level 2 are added by users in level 1 and users level 3 are added by users in level 2. If you want to be in the default trust list, you will have to be added by users in level 1 or 2 or by 'DefaultTrust' himself and that is Admin(Don't know whether BadBear is handling the account). Users in level 3 isn't considered as trustworthy as others and most of them put the level deep to 2. If anybody put useless trust, then theymos will remove him/her. From what I heard, theymos is checking the list and making it upto date, i.e, adding users or removing users.

DefaultTrust isn't meant to be a definitive list of who you can wholeheartedly trust but is there as a guide. Most people who are considered trustworthy and are on the list are unlikely to sell their accounts, though this is possible and I'm aware of at least one person who did, but I reported that and theymos swiftly removed him, but like I said, use default trust as a guide as it's not watertight and can be abused just like any feedback or trust system.

Theymos handles DefaultTrust, everything else is about right.
