idea--- A decentralised trust system

[Your Point Is Invalid]

How about a decentralised trust system, the current system is clearly broken
Decentralised trust systems such as the one found over on thebot.net and hackforums.net to some extent run much better than what we currently have, although people only leave positive or negative feedback for trades which i think is good, i dont need to leave a positive or negative rating because you are my cousin

I think that if everyone's trust ratings count then there wouldnt be pressure on people in DT1

just my 2 cents

If 20-100 people decide how the bulk of the forum views a person's profile then the system is centralised, do you disagree? You have to be an idiot to disagree

No he doesnt, he plans to go into the new forum using a similar system as we are using now, there would be a system to identify alts in the new forum

Your arguments are plain stupid, one can't just say 'This and this, if you disagree you're stupid'. Constructive criticism is one thing but what you're doing is called trolling

You don't know , there hasn't been an official announcement or even any rumors about it. Again, I can easily make 50 alts or buy them, discredit someone and sell them and move on with my life. Know VPN much?

You're making bogus up at this point. Although I agree DT might be giving power in the hands of a few individuals henceforth making it centralized and ab-usable, its tolerable at this point

If 100 out of half a million people decide on a person's general rating then this system is centralised, do you disagree?

also im not making anything up, read this document that theymos wrote- https://docs.google.com/document/d/1bHlm4NQkSzaBTT5tLIqQBmV92wSsbdOX5r-dRR9Dgg0/edit

The other thing to remember is that you aren't forced to follow the default trust system. You're able to make up your own trust list, picking and choosing users who you believe are reputable, and who leave reputable ratings. Or if you're generally happy with the default trust system except for a few select users, you can just exclude them from your trust list.

I think that if everyone's trust ratings count then there wouldnt be pressure on people in DT1

I think that would be a very bad idea, as mentioned before due to alts. Plus, even if there was a hard limit of one account per user, why would you trust a rating from a brand new, unknown user as much as you would from a reputable user with tens of thousands of dollars traded on this site?

I agree, just don't see the point of even starting a discussion. You can choose your own trust list. theymos isn't here to save them from their laziness

Educate me where exactly has he pointed out anything about alts

Again, you just showed you dont understand how the trust system works. I see you are still having mexxer on it and in addition you accept lutpin if your depth is at least 2. oh and see, i am on DT2 with your current settings as you still have mexxer in. funny...

so you dont think we are untrustworthy? nvm, ill stop to write more posts in here. doesnt make any sense...

[mexxer-2]

Just in case OP's still confused about how the trust system works here(thats just the Part 1)

Its pretty confusing when you say you do know how to exclude me from your trust list, keep offending me with one liners and backlash against me being added to DT while yourself having me manually added to your trust list.

Is there anyway to check if you're on the trust list?

[Decoded]

The current trust system is totally fine. There may be a high amount of pressure on people in DT1, but if there is an undeserved trust, other members can go to the DT1 member and ask them to review the trust rep.

You can go to this page, click Ctrl+F, type in your username, and see if it shows up anywhere other than in Depth 0. If it doesn't show up anywhere else, then you aren't in any of the default trust levels in your trust depths.

[Heutenamos]

There is no pressure ,they don't care.

How about a decentralised trust system -snip- such as the one found over on thebot.net and hackforums.net
-snip-

How do these systems work in comparisson to here?

The entire forum would be controlled by those with the most accounts, not the most trustworthy.

[Heutenamos]

Only joint score should be removed from the current system.

Everyone's feedback counts, the system on thebot.net works perfectly but the one on hackforums has some hiccups

Is it moderated? What prevents people from creating 1000 shills to change their appearance?

[onlinepro]

I don't know what system would be better but I agree with that the current system is not working well and it should be changed.
