Before now the motivation was to gain reputation as signature abusers busters but now they have another motivation earn merit. Let me use your example to explain better consider the stores owner decided to pay a prize to those who catch shoplifters, that's exactly what's happening in the forum. When you bust signature abusers you gain either ruptation or merit.

Well written OP, Not forgetting MLM is also been used in the ICO market enabling shitprojects raise huge funds even more than the somehow legit projects in the aim of deceiving the general public.
Projects using MLM to hype their ICO are usually shitcoins with nothing to offer except tokens been tradable on few worthless exchange in future. I discourage investing in projects that uses MLM.
No doubt MLM benefits only the early adopters and they need those I call "new fools" to keep the project they're using MLM to promote alive.

  thought I was the only one thinking in this direction, but again judging from previous signature (bounty) threads I have seen, participants tends to use merits to appreciate the Campaign manager therefore the case here might not be different.

rig4hodlers since you aren't interested in the merit system I would suggest each time you received merits you offload the smerits to other active users in the merit system. Don't hoard them it does no good to your account. It's not mandatory to make use of the merit system but you can consider it an obligation (that you can pass on to others) to make use of smerits to keep the cycle going.

I understand that school of thought, that's why it's said, success is a bad teacher, that humans tends to learn more from our mistakes than we do from our success. Although if you want to achieve greatness in gambling as a gambler,  you should be able to learn in both ways perfectly, when you lose you learn and when you win you should learn more to perfect your winning ways.

You can get all the information from the exchange official social media handle or help center. I'm very positive most of the well known exchanges have mobile app used for trading cryptocurrency.

pugman, thanks for this thread I find it more comprehensive, well documented and informative more than others I have seen. I received a question on my thread tilted [Guide] Factors to consider before joining paid signature campaigns. Asking about a thread where he can find reputed campaign manager listed and I recommended your thread.

Keep up the good work.

Here Overview of Bitcointalk Signature Anti-Spam Campaign Managers

You're correct that's why I included the highlighted part like also you can list members you trade with and trust their judgement on others.

@DdmrDdmr, I believe this list from how I understand it was made to keep the trust system accurate. You are free to list any member you trust on your custom trust list but as the introduction message says, you should add at least 3 members form the list to keep your trust system accurate.

Sarri is a very stubborn coach, he does whatever he feels is best for style of play and suits him. If he was actually listening by now he would had played kante at his best position and retired Alonso lol but no he doesn't listen and am sure any decisions he takes towards kepa would be self made. Keeping a close eye on the lineups.

Almost all users listed on the list by the forum automated system earned it. If you read the introduction message clearly it say, "The list below is generated automatically, so listed users are not guaranteed to be trustworthy, though the automatic process is very likely to select trustworthy users. If you distrust all of the listed users, enter the name of at least one user who you do trust in the "advanced" trust list at the bottom of this page".

The list was made to guide forum users on who to add to custom trust list and at least three users from the list should be picked to keep your trust system score accurate.

For accuracy, add any three DT members form the list below to your custom trust list.

There are some information that aren't been used as lack of publicity have made it difficult to find. The whole new trust system is no longer a news as numerous thread have been started, explaining how to use it and it's benefits to users.

I came across a thread on meta titled; Should forum persuade users of the merits of customized trust lists? and when you come to think of it, the OP was correct. There isn't enough thread emphasising on the usefulness/benefits of a custom trust list. I can only remember [Explained] Importance of Custom Trust List.

I know as a newbie interested in customizing your trust list it's kind of difficult if you haven't traded with any user to trust their judgement or familiar with the active scammer busters that's where the forum comes in. There's a solution to help you choose the right forum user to improve the accuracy of your trust system.


Here's the list to suggested users from forum

I believe the procedure is self explanatory, you just have to tick the box next to the DT members name you trust and click done then their names will appear on the advance trust list space.

Recommended threads on trust system:
DefaultTrust changes

Your questions contradicts each other let me explain what I meant. First you ask a question only a old forum users or someone that knows how the previous ranking system works will know.


Then you ask another question first acting like you don't know how the new system works but again you asked how to get merit (that serves as a requirement) in the new system.

OP you're trying to play smart but lets say you're truly asking like someone who doesn't know then read this thread;
 FAQ: Everything you need to know about forum 'activity, account ranks and merit

And if you feel you have written some quality posts that went unmerited due to one reason or the other, participate in;
 UPDATED [20/02/2019]: List of Active Merit Giveaways threads.

Not everyone is interested in the whole Trust (DT) politics therefore the forum shouldn't pressure them into getting a custom trust list. Personally I wasn't interested too until earlier this year when I picked interested and made my custom trust list after viewing numerous thread started on the whole trust, CTL, and DT system especially this thread;


All the thread relating to CTL started on the forum are already doing the job of advertising therefore, sending  PMs will just be a sign of desperation from the forum.

Didn't you notice the way those chat room are been abuse in those sites you saw them in? Introducing a chat room to the forum will just increase the rate of paid spam messages and discussions.
The forum is that active that if you got any issue and make a thread about it in less than 10mins you'll get a repond that's only if you post in the right board. so I don't see any reason a chatroom should been added to forum.

When it comes to exchanging (trading) i do not prefer to trade with coinbase, i use binance so if i was to sell it'll be binance. Apart from altcoin (inwhich i sell all my holdings each time i make 10x) i haven't sold all my bitcoin holding so i don't have a exit strategy for bitcoin instead i sell when ever i need to take profit and rebuy when the market dips.

They'll bouces back with the Arsenal game coming up. Lets not forget they were on a winning run of 4 straight wins before losing two games back to back. Tottenham has the upper hand when it comes to playing Arsenal therefore, here's my prediction for the Tottenham vs Arsenal game

If you can't resist leaving feedback in cases like this, then the "neutral tag" ignored by most members (including myself until I was notified) should be encourage to be used. Just as the below user stated on one of my previous thread


I believe leaving feedback for that offend isn't worth Red tagged but again the trust system isn't moderated so what can we say.

The trust sender should note,

I voted yes. I also have a question,

As majority of voters have voted yes (including reputed users) can this be translated into a factor to consider before joining a paid signature campaign?. If the community believe making spreadsheet public is very important should users be discourage from joining campaigns that don't publicize their spreadsheets.

Sorry reply is kinda off but I need answer so I can update this thread: Factors to consider before joining paid signature campaigns.

Tottenham vs Arsenal is going to be a very close match and interesting one to watch. It's a 50:50 game although I hope Arsenal losses but that won't be that easy since Arsenal has a current record of 4wins 1loss in their last 5 games played in all competition with 12 goals

Meanwhile Tottenham recent performance isn't that convincing but from history as seen in the image below Tottenham has won 3, drawn 2 in the last 7 meeting of these two clubs. Therefore my bet is on Tottenham as it'll favour me as a Chelsea fan.

OP this'll be the best option as I can't find any instant exchange that doesn't require login to trade (without a scam accusations) after carryout some online research. Although I found numerous exchange tagged {exchange that requires little or no ID verification to trade}. If you're trying to stay anonymous then I suggest mercatox (although it requires login but needs no verification to trade below 1 BTC and doesn't need valid credentials to trade below 1BTC also) therefore you can still achieve the experience you wanted to have with an anonymous exchange on mercatox (as you can pose as anyone to trade below 1BTC).
