Topic: DefaultTrust changes - page 11. (Read 85467 times)

I've never really looked into the criteria for becoming a DT1 member; it's interesting that I met almost all of the criteria here; the only one I'm a little confused about is the bolded part; does this mean that a user must be a Hero rank or higher to become a DT1 member? Because one must have received 250 merits from two different users?(500 merits)Could someone please explain this part to me? I'm befuddled; the more I read, the less I understand.

Being active is already part of the requirements:


Merit requirements (10+ and 250+ merit user votes) could be increased considering merit "inflation", because people only gain merit and never lose it. However:


And we're not at "hundreds" yet, so it seems fully within theymos' expectations and I wouldn't expect any such changes any time soon.

Only 20 DT1 members for forum that has thousands of active users (and millions of registered) is not good, and it would look more like a closed cult or a sect of specially elected users.
I agree that current DT system needs to be improved maybe most for DT2 members, but I wouldn't reduce DT1 members five times.
Better number would be 50 DT1 members that is 50% reduction, and I would increase number of inclusions for DT2 members like LoyceV suggested.
It would be interesting to add something like activity strength that would reduce your DT level if you are inactive, and increase it if you are active user.

I think I'm going to nickname you "Bitcointalk encyclopedia".

Txs for the explanation.

I think this one will happen about a week before KYC, so not very likely. It was suggested several times in the past years, and I once checked the numbers: it would reduce the number of users on DT2 by about 50%. And it would end all "selfscratching".

I can imagine it's not easy to implement, because the 1 inclusion not only applies to DT1 and DT2, it works all the way down to DT4 depending on your own trust depth setting. And changing how that works might be undesirable.

That seems like a good idea to me.

Those of you who have been on the forum for a long time, what do you think is the probability that theymos will make such a change? I think he very rarely makes changes and that he thinks long and hard before making them.

That's going to be a monthly thing, but to make it 20 would actually be interesting. Raise the requirements, and also raise the requirements for DT2.
But it's not going to help: eventually, anyone can get enough inclusions to qualify again. So the only thing I'd really like to see is 2 instead of 1 inclusion to reach DT2.

Perhaps because theymos randomly selected the users that eligible to become DT1, as been stated the criteria below. But since many DT1 excluded him, he's no longer a DT1 and he's not on DT 2 too because no one DT1 user trust him wolwoo trustlist. So there's nothing to be worried.

---

Pardon me since I don't know how the situation when there's only 12 users selected on DT1. But if theymos reduced 100 to 20 users to become DT1 users on every month, I think it's doesn't good since it makes the forum more centralized and perhaps theymos picked wrong users as DT1. Let's say he picked a group that abusing a trust system and they're trusting each others, it will mess up the forum with their not appropriate feedback. Not to mention not all 20 users will become DT1 as we didn't know those DT1 trust list and which user they distrust. 100 users are make sense for me.

This new way is terrible, seems like anyone can make DT. Back in the day when it was 12 users or whatnot, DT meant alot. I agree something needed to change, but 100 DT1 users is crazy. We need to hold an election or something and elect 20 users for DT1.

The DT1-lottery doesn't account for exclusions, but he had DT1-strength (-15) until the most recent change:

How the hell did wolwoo end up on DT, anyway?  I'm assuming he's temporarily removed from DT1 but is still on DT2, no? 

Thanks for the update, LoyceV.  It's been a while since I last looked at a DT update.  Oh, if only we could go back to the old days when being on the DT list actually meant something.  Surely I can't be alone in my thinking.

Theymos reshuffled DT1.

thank you for the clarification
as always you are 10 steps ahead of normal people

in any case if I lost 6 times, it is very little .. or are there numbers that deny this statement of mine?

thank you anyway

Sorry, that's not true
See DT1-strength:
Since your first time on DT1, you've lost the DT1-lottery 6 times.

I have been very lucky until now
I've always been in DT1
I find that the random choice is dictated by chaos and therefore is fair and equitable
in the end it is a chaos-based rotation

chaos/entropy is better and democratic

It's definitely a glitch that didn't occur when BPIP was first created.

It's also misleading.

Maybe that's because you were not eligible for DT1 this time:


And BPIP is automatically recognizing it as "DT 2 selection". There are quite a few accounts affected at the same time, most likely it's due to DT1 changes: https://bpip.org/TrustLog



All of them are listed as "removed" for recent DT1 changes.

It just shows up on BPIP but doesn't remove someone from your trust list. 

I don't understand what's wrong... my trust list is fine but I see that I deleted a few guys.

No. If you had the same number of DT1-inclusions as exclusions, it would be ,0,0,0,0,.
Only commas means you weren't on DT1 that week (see the top row for week numbers).
