How to gain trust?

[btcminer021]

I see the "trust" function (i.e., +1, -1, etc.) on the forums. How do you gain trust?

[Brewins]

by trading or showing you are honest and trustworthy in general?

Don't buy trust or you will going to end up getting a neg trust

[btcminer021]

There's a field for the "Reference Link" in trust. I assume this requires some sort of post for validation. Perhaps a link to accounts on other sites would serve as a good source?

Do you really need to care about "How do you gain trust?" Gaining trust score is a natural process; You gain it +ve, neutral or -ve just doing trades or providing services or put more simply by being a valuable and helpful community member. Doing 1 or more of the aforesaid things make other community members here leaving a trust feedback to your profile (if they wish to do so) and your trust score will reflect those feedbacks.
By the while, why asking such a question like a wannabe scammer while using the search form here on bitcointalk can find you all the guides & help on the topic?

There's a field for the "Reference Link" in trust. I assume this requires some sort of post for validation. Perhaps a link to accounts on other sites would serve as a good source?

Unreferenced trust feedback bear low to no credibility. Trust from outside sites bring no value at all since it was rigged by sockpuppets & other abusers. You should do real trades and other members here will give you feedback based on them, putting the references in the Reference Link field.

I'm asking because I see "trust" as a reference indication of someone's... trust. A key attribute to be used to evaluate a member before trading or loaning with that person.

I ask about the trust mechanism on the forum because I see it has limited capabilities. BBs have been around for a long time, there are many different frameworks, and I'm curious why we use SMF and not one of the others.

Curiosity...?

The Equation is this:

The activity number is determined in this way:
time = number of two-week periods in which you've posted since your registration
activity = min(time * 14, posts)

But for people to trust you, you must complete good trades, be an active community member, or something else for people to have a reason to.

That equation is for activity calculation not trust rating calculation.

correct...
activity counter it is auutomatically updated from Bitcointalk forum engine...

to increase trust counter, other users, must explicitly post new feedback form the link below
change 123456 with your uid

Wrong! Activity updates only if you make atleast 1 post in 2 weeks period. It is same for trust rating, it will only increase if a person from DefaultTrust list or on a user's trust list put a trust feedback.

the rule that you said is correct.

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=177133.0

but the activity counter according to the rule that you said,
is updated automatically by the engine forum!!!

If your post count is below your activity points(activity points you can use) you must post more to see your activity count increase. Your activity point is like a limit, limit increases as more active 2 weeks period you gain. People not from your trust list will not appear as trusted feedback but as untrusted feedback. Trust list is different for everyone if they modify it so trust rating will appear differently.
