If gaining trust is your goal, you're doing it wrong. What you need to focus on, is being trustworthy. Trust will follow.

But, considering you made 27 spamposts in 2 days, including early bumps, you have a long way to go.

Did you really have to open 8 threads in these 2 days? For comparison: I have opened 38 in over 2.5 years.

Looks like you're pretty new here. Why are you rushing to gain people's trust? 

Anyway, I think people gain trust here simply by doing various kinds of transactions with other people or maybe by doing escrow.

[Bobby_D]

You need to work on your trust - give helpful advices to other people, participate in forum discussions.

[Cyberczar]

No one is going to trust you just by you saying you're trustworthy. Anyone can say that. Trust is gained as situations requiring trust arise. Not by advertising oneself as trustworthy.

The only way to "gain" trust is not by asking for the same, because that's where you are not right.
It's better to slowly gain it by doing several types of contributing activities like helping others over the forum with the knowledge or skills you have, transacting for real with some reputed members of the forum, showing them your work by doing it on time. Be natural and let others trust you themselves, don't ask for it.

To show your trustworthiness, then just continue to participate on discussions here in forum and try not to scam others. Always be truthful to every transaction you do in marketplace. if ever you are offering services there, always try to be truthful and never try to cheat on signature and bounty campaigns. Lastly, try to help others if you can if ever one required an advice to solve his/her personal concerns.

If you make any trustable trade with someone, and you get some good feedback from your customer; you may request to write an positive trust for you.

[A.P.]

Be nice and gentle) If you want to use your account get good and worth something answers.

[elegion]

Many of these suggestions are good and are quite excellent.

They key point is to learn, and share what you've learned with those who need a particular question answered. To post and be as informative as possible is key on this forum and you'll climb up the ranks with time so take your time. Even if you learned something from some where else online or from experience; there's going to always be something that you can share and that someone else will want to know.

I also noticed that the more thought you place into your post the more a person sounds natural, organic, and human. I like that feeling, the feeling that all my posts took time, thought, patience, and art.

I don't think with your "Trust" mark it makes people always think your are good man, but if you think like that People are gain trust for SCAMMING for Huge amount.

With trust you will gain more prominence in the forum. You must be well-behaved, try to solve the problems of other users, and help. The forum is meant to help others with their BTC adventure.

Thank you. I am a newbie. I appreciate this sound advice. I'm still learning the ropes, but essentially I know that it will be much better soon!

[zatoshi]

Although I'm still a newbie something I've learnt here just by reading topics is that we only should comment if we are truly sharing an idea. So, what I'm trying at first is to just comment on topics I think I have something to contribute. So, most of the time I'm spending here (just registered yesterday) I'm reading about different topics and learning a lot about BTC/SegWit/Altcoins. I think the best way to be trustworthy is by being authentic and keep updated with current topics, be kind with people and share knowledge. From my point of view, this community is all about collaboration and less about impressions.

[whichisbetter]

Regardless of which aspect you're looking at, it really takes time and effort to build trust. Yo don't need to rush things to gain somebody's trust. Just be yourself. And remember that your words and actions are very important in establishing trust. Just wait till somebody recognizes your effort then everything will fall in its proper place. 

[Decimation]

Asking to earn trust isn't how you earn trust.

Good.  You should lock this thread before someone on DT stops by and negs you for asking how to gain trust as a noob.  Could happen.   And you should lock it because it's already turning into a spam thread with duplicate answers by noobs who've got no trust and probably don't understand how it works anyway.

[PX-Z]

If you want people trust you then start with yourself, and do some small trades or even bigger, don't ask positive feedback to someone you trade with. Even a neutral with positive words is alright. And always use an escrow agent when you want to have a transaction with other user, don't be blinded with accounts that has green on their account because not all wearing of green trust is trustworthy, some of them are bought account so becareful.

[Siopao]

You can't gain trust just by asking and advertising yourself in forums. You have work for it by sharing your knowledge in forums and posting helpful ideas so that some will learn from it; you can also do trading and ask them to give good feedback. Do not do scam posting and follow the guidelines in forums.

RECENTLY, I was involved in a transaction. The person involved brought to my attention that they rated my trust & had someone else do it as well. It's not showing up. Maybe the moderator deleted it. Why would this happen?

The people who left you trust aren't in Default Trust.
To see their feedback, go to https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=trust;u=1285929, click Untrusted feedback > Show ratings.

Do I have to believe you sold Twitter accounts for 0.5BTC and bought a Twitter account for 0.2BTC?

[websitemaker]

I think that you need to give helpful advices to other people to get some trust,but as a beginner its hard to do that...

[BelCanto]

The last person who told me he was trustworthy was a car salesman.

I didn't buy the car.  Know why?   

If you have to tell me you're trustworthy you're probably not.

Gaining trust is a step by step process here you'll need to prove yourself first to the moderators and everyone here in the forum that you have the extensive knowledge and someone that can be depend upon by conducting successful transaction to anyone not by stealing or scamming their bitcoin. You'll need to rank up first and conduct a fruitful information to everyone through your postings.

So you just decided to ask for positive trust kindly as I noticed only managers and moderators have it and about ordinary users I really don't know how Tebet earned that, but the fact is positive trust have only legendary and hero members.

Incorrect.

I was a newbie when I gained my first trust rating on this forum.

You can gain trust at any rank by proving yourself trustworthy (not scamming people, sticking to agreements made, etc) during trades with other members. The ratings that make a difference to your overall score come from users in Default Trust, of which there are plenty in the collectibles sub-forum.

[Deena]

Gain friends. Preferably influentual ones. Or ramble with a sack of Bitcoins. People here will do anything for Bitcoins.

[yojodojo21]

It is Possible, But Not in The Way of Asking For it. Trust Feedback is gained through Process of Showing how You Are Thoughtful, Trustworthy, Professional and Reliable. A Person Who is Not Fooling others and have The passion to Help and be Educated in A Fair Way Really Deserves a Positive Trust Feedback.
Don't Long For it, Instead Do Things in The Way Your Nature of Thinking wants to do. Many Campaign Managers Have Positive Trust Feedback because They Deserve it, Because They Respect Themselves that is Why They Respect others, And That's How They Gain Trust not By Asking.

[Prinox2]

plenty people talks about TRUST but in reality only few be trusted....Let's say no to scamming and hacking.

[jamids]

Being trustworthy is not just simply asking for it but it builds up overtime. You can help some people in the forum or have successful transactions so that they will just simply approach you again in case they need your services or help again which means they trust you. I know it is hard for you to be trusted especially that you are a newbie but as you rank up and gain some trust of the reputable members in this forum then you can easily gain the trust of some people if someone would vouch for you and as long as you don't do something untrustworthy.

Well said. Trust comes as a result  of our action built over a period of time.

[Deena]

  The naivity!

First of all there is a difference between trust and feedback. Anyone can give you feedback, good or bad. That doesn't matter. Nobody really looks into other people's profiles to see what feedback they received. Also don't expect to just receive feedback from strangers. They are too busy with their own agenda. It's like when people buy a product. When they have nothing to complain they say nothing, but with the least of problems they will be sending their complaints.

Then there is the trust system. Trust points immediately show. When you have negative trust it will be hard for you to get bounties. These trust points are given out by moderators. These moderators are chosen by a circle of trusted members. It's a very inscesteous systemen where a certain arrived group of people keep sticking green feathers in each others behinds. And those that form a threat to their monetary agenda are given red trust. Once in a while a scammer gets red trust too, but that's just for formalities and doesn't really have the moderator's interest.

Do you want to buy anything? Games? Domino's Pizza gift cards?

Do it on here! That's the easiest way to gain a lot of trust here. If you complete as many of your trades through here, you will start gaining a lot of legitimate trust (opposed to trust farming, which I'd consider illegitimate trust).

Though I wonder what you want to do with that trust... Escrow a large trade and run away with the funds?
Well, everyone has their own way of getting rich!

In my view, positive trust rating is good. It may be useful for areas of this forum I have not been familiar. But the trust rating you should avoid by all means is the negative trust. It will deny you so much opportunities.

That is true. Sometimes red trust however cannot be avoided. For instance when moderators support the hidden agenda's of their green friends, or when they simply feel annoyed by your presence.

I hope that you two do understand that what you posted was COMPLETELY IRRELEVANT to the topic?

The question was "How can you get trust?"
Then you answer "You should avoid red trust!"

Is that a valid answer? Nope.
Are your posts spam? Yup!
Are you safe? Nope.
Are you getting what you're recommending others to avoid? If you continue, Yup!

I highly recommend that you start improving your post quality.

[MCVXYZ]

I think that if you want to gain trust you must not do it artificaly.the trust comes when you help people by posting relevant posts,wich are really helpful for them.you must be honest and you olso must  have enaugh knowledge,Share your knowledge with others and do not lie them who don’t understand things.don’t post only to improve your rank.If you have to do anything else with others, you must take into account his interests,with yours,so no one wil suffer in this situation and all will be satisfied.so if you want to gain trust as my opinion you must do it in good faith!

I think its hard to get the trust of anyone. Because we are all anonymous here. I think it base on your reputation if you are good or not. I noticed it on some campaign managers because they always holding the payments for the participants of the campaign. Hard to find a trusted one so its not easy to easy to have it.

[jinksters09]

Trust will follow if you prove yourself to everyone that your someone deserving of trust rating by doing some of these things like for example providing fruitful information in which everyone can benefit on through your post, making a smooth transaction with someone without abiding the rules, and basically following the rules around here in this forum.

I saw this advise and want to share with you.

'It's hard to be gain trust ratings. But can achieve that though. You just to need create something useful and helpful to the community. Like doing small trades like sell your altcoins for Bitcoin or Bitcoins for altcoins. For every successful trades. The member will give you positive feedback because of the successful trade. But do not force them to give you positive feedback. That's not a good behaviour and abusing trust. You can also offer a service for free. Just like what others was doing here. And one thing i notice. You're a newbie. Make your rank atleast full member or higher in able to find someone you can transact with. No disrespect, but no one trusts newbies these days.'

You may wish to explore the methods.
