OP is not talking about ICO rating here.
Read the thread again.

Currently, I think the rating is not much important. Many website about ICO rating aim to marketing for an ICO rather than evaluating it. So sad to say this. Money can change everything and now the rating website is not helpful like before

It is called untrusted feedback for a reason. Don't believe every thing you read there.
Any one can leave you a negative feedback and it may be completely wrong.
Open the reference link to be able to judge by your self whether the feedback is accurate or not.
The reference is the way by which a user can prove his claims.

And this- [Explained] How DT system works
I request everyone who are confused with trust system/dt system/trust score, can read those two thread. I believe it will be easier to understand.

Trust is more complex than it seems. In principle, the Trust system is there to help one have a measure of the person he is considering trading with, based on the evaluation of others that have traded with him in the past (be it a positive, neutral, or a negative experience). Nevertheless, Trust is being used for more purposes that are not strictly based on a trading transaction (such as merit abuse cases, account buyer/seller, troll, etc.). While these alternate evaluations of one’s profile may be useful under certain circumstances, they do not necessarily abide to the original spirit and context of trade.

Besides the above, DT (Default Trust) feedback is what the majority of us use. DTs normally think things through before giving a trust feed-back (that’s why they are set as DTs), as opposed to untrusted feedback that can be given by anyone whose criteria and reputation when giving their feedback is often yet to be known. Untrusted feedbacks tend to sway further from the original trading objective than trusted feedback, but it’s a complex topic that has a couple of recently active threads on Meta on the matter, such as:

-    Is the Default trust system still working/active?
-    Can we regulate the trust system ?
-    List of inactive DT1 & DT2 from long period, I think need add more to keep fresh
-    [Explained] How Trust Score is calculated

Currently (see Analysis - DT Depth 2 - Profile Distribution ), the Trust vision that the vast majority of us have (DT2) would lead to us seeing around:

-   1.940 profiles with positive trust
-   14.969 with negative trust
-   The remaining profiles lack DT2 trust rating.

I'm not sure that your suggestion is really good. First of all, you should check trusted feedbacks, which are left by DT members. Maybe it's worth to check untrusted feedbacks, but you shouldn't believe in it blindly. Everyone can leave untrusted feedback, for example I can create alt account and leave feedback "Scammer" one someone's profile. If you would trust in such feedback blindly, you probably wouldn't trade with this user. It's also easy to leave fake positive ratings. This is why majority of people aren't paying attention to feedbacks which were left by non DT members.
What is really important - always use trusted escrow when you want to buy or sell something here. Escrow makes risk of being scammed minimal.

beware of crooks

Let it be know rating or no rating always trade with complete caution.

Any one with red trust was once without it until a victim feel so even if a member is without a red trust they can still defraud you

And beside the post is quite a one we are used to already it's been discussed severally here and your post was very superficial

Thank you.
Funny thing is that I have been in this forum for a while but I was always under looking the ratings button (never actually even attempted to check it)
Thanks for fighting those scammers, you are the people this forum needs.

EDIT:
You can always make full use of the Scam Accusations Board to report any form of scam you have witnessed. Let's burst these scammers together.

I do check that especially those people who have an offer that is too good to be true and devs from ICO too.

don't forget to press the show rating button while checking the user trust..not all trust points are visible on the profile page..beware of crooks..
