When I was a newbie, I was curious to know many things. I asked The Pharmacist what DT1 and DT2 meant. He sent me a link and explained briefly that DT1 are users trusted by theymos while DT2 are users trusted by the people theymos trusted.
After that brief explanation, I was curious why there is no DT3, DT4 and so on. But I didn't want to bother him the more.

So meaning ThePharmacist don't really understand how DT system work, oh fuck.

This forum is so great but its slowly killed by those Abusive guy.

When did this happen? That system was abandoned more than 2 years before you joined Bitcointalk.

If you're the type of person to simply look at a bunch of numbers and be satisfied, then there are plenty of prime candidates out there. Positive or negative have varying definitions to all users - if you have to miss out interacting with those who disregard the nuance, then it's not much of a loss.

Agreed, I was just giving some gross numbers.

It happened either when I was a newbie or Jr member, 23rd July, 2021.
I believe he gave me the simplest explanation as a newbie who doesn't know the meaning of DT1 or DT2.

While you're right, technically the trust system has been somewhat moderated in the past, where theymos deemed necessary. Usually, with accounts abusing it, by leaving like a million different feedbacks etc. Other than that, you're right.

I added you to my trust list a few weeks ago. But, You are a DT1 member already. Does it make any change on it? I mean, What if you get more votes from members? I guess there are some changes in rank?
Despite what others have said about it not counting for much in the grand scheme of things, I wouldn't take that into consideration, since it's your personal trust list. By putting someone in your trust list, you see their trust ratings in the trusted section, and if they're particularly active in the marketplace, they should be leaving quite a bit of them. Which directly benefits you as a warning.

Although, if you were to ever rise through the ranks yourself, then it will serve a purpose beyond your own personal reasons.
