I don't see a problem if someone who hunts cheaters on the forum is included in the DT, as long as they use their feedback correctly. This is why the trust system was created - to fight against scammers and cheaters. Isn't it?.
As I said, I don't have anything against cheater hunters. I don't want to mention names here, but whoring to get DT inclusion creates a lot of drama in the reputation board. They may like it. But I don't want to get involved in dramas.
If you add someone to your trust list who doesn't use the feedback correctly and other forum members point it out, you can simply review their arguments and make any necessary corrections to your trust list (as cygan did in this case). So, where exactly is the problem?
There is no problem if someone finds it and lets me know. The problem is they don't care about it. They care about creating new topics and catching some merits, which makes them aggressive towards people.
I see some prominent forum members have cleared their trust list. So, I let my trust list be empty and did not bother to make any changes as I wanted to see default feedback.
OK, let me get this straight. You rely on feedback from DT, but if no one on the forum is willing to contribute to creating trust lists, how do you expect DT to function? Just imagine what would happen if all reputable and honest members deleted their trust lists.
You got my point. I understand the forum needs more people to use this function to make it work more appropriately. But I don't like how people question you. The forum people talk very aggressively (not everyone).
I am not updating my trust list for the same reason LTU_btc said. Humans make mistakes, and we are not robots (I know people consider you an AI). Imagine I did something I wanted, people did not like it, and people created a thread about me. People will interfere with whether my judgment is proper or not.
If your judgement is wrong, you should get excluded so you won't reach DT. At least that's how the system is supposed to work. I wouldn't change what I'm doing out of fear that someone might create a topic about it. Let them. It's part of the freedoms Bitcointalk offers. And who knows, they may even have a point.
As I already said. I don't have a problem if people find I did something wrong. They can exclude me from their list if they want. I wish people knocked others privately and told them they did it wrong. But, Nope. They want some attention and possibly some merits.
Well, I decided to update my Trust list today. But I won't explain to anyone why I added whom and why it makes sense to me. I want to see the most accurate feedback, which I could agree with. I wish I could make my skin Thicker.
