Yes morvillz7z was the one ahead of me to point it out.

There should be some creterias for a member to be a DT2.

I think it is OK to leave it like this as at this point DT system consists of active members and with some exclusions we can solve such problem. Not a biggie IMO but having some sort of monitoring tool like LoyceV suggested would be good and helpful in excluding trust abusers quickly.

Like mikeywith and pandukelana2712 pointed, it seems to me that you don't feel sorry about it actually. Sorry but there is no room for mercy in your case.

Thanks everyone for handling this. Love to see active members now in DT system Cheesy

. I will now lock this thread and will report if something new leads from the users that LoyceV pointed.

Please give me the opportunity

To do what, exactly? What is it you can't do now that you couldn't do before your account(s) got tagged?

It seems like you knew what the consequences of sending merits to an alt account would be, but you did it anyway. What do you expect from the community?

It's just your words. And the worst things, your argument that looks makes you have the right to break the rules.

Do you remember about the copper member? I think if you're a good translator, you can translate this:

By popular demand, newbies can now pay to have some of their restrictions lifted. If you pay the fee, you become a Copper Member, and you can post images. That's the main point of this: allowing newbies to post images. Additionally (and these might change depending on how things go), Copper Members currently have these bonuses:

Why can't I post images?

Because you need to be a Junior Member to do that. To become a Junior Member you will have to have posted in three activity periods and have at least 28 activity. However, you can bypass these restriction by buying a Copper Membership for a small fee here.

so theymos charge 50 BTC to "change your account" ? check with Cyrus maybe he offers a cheaper rate. Roll Eyes

many members here spend a lot of time and effort doing whatever you do and more, but what you did there is not justifiable.

anyhow if you want to continue doing the "good" things to the forum, the negative trust on your profile should not stop you.

Hic, I really did not intentionally and did not abuse merit. Otherwise I have given away my entire merit there.
I just give 1 merit to help my account show image, help eveybody see proof of Scam ICO.

I try very much in this forum: translator, find ICO scam. And i just want to change my account, but if change by Admin/smod, this cost 50BTC,
too expensive. So I create a new account.

Please.

This might be worth looking into too: he's received positive trust from rig4hodlers and bubbalex. Both were put on DT2 only by Hellmouth42, and rig4hodlers left feedback to Hellmouth42 only. There's a very small circle of users giving eachother trust (this may or may not be justified, I didn't dig that deep yet).

I trust these 2 members, no doubt

I am discovering the thread right now, I will draw the consequences concerning deception1359

edit: got the point, deception1359 distrusted

It looks like poor judgement to say the least. deception1359

He/she seems to be a translator looking to join bounties. Giving yourself positive trust (trusted) might be an unfair advantage towards other participants.

I think the self-meriting thing is actually a lot worse in this case:

Quote from: deception1359 on March 16, 2019, 10:42:01 AM

If I create a new account. Then I send my smerit to the new account, is this valid?

Quote from: TeQuiero on March 16, 2019, 11:21:13 AM

Technically, you can do whatever you want with your merit as it's not moderated. But giving merit to your alt maybe result in getting tagged by DT member.

He/she knew what can happen and still did it. Undecided

Quote from: LoyceV on April 18, 2019, 03:02:57 PM

I'm still working on an overview of DT2 and "selfscratchers" (users who include users who left them positive trust), but it's not finished yet.

This would be a good monitoring tool, more trust abusers will get revealed for sure!

Does anyone who is trusted by a DT1 become automatically a DT2? If so, the least that can be said is that this is so wrong!
There should be some creterias for a member to be a DT2.

Anyone who is on DT1 who goes into their trust list settings and adds users makes a person DT2 automatically. See image below. You can give a user a positive trust for a trade or whatnot and it does nothing to their DT status. This is where I think people are confused.

Also, as you see in the image below if you use ~ symbol before someones username in your trust settings, that user is not trusted by you.

I do understand how he was added to the list, but thank you for trying to clarify it for me.

I'm wondering about that too (see my edit above).

Anyway, I'm hoping we don't see more of this crap in the future, but the cynical little devil that sits on my shoulder is whispering that I shouldn't bet my manbloons on it.

I expect more of it. Let's say it's a challenge to create the right tools to find them

I don't think many of the recently added DT2 know they're DT2.

I'm still working on an overview of DT2 and "selfscratchers" (users who include users who left them positive trust), but it's not finished yet. Without really searching for it, I found several examples of abuse already, so it could be this is just scratching the surface.

There is no notification msg. or anything like that unless you get a PM that you've been added (this is not an excuse to give yourself/alt account a positive feedback in any way though).

Any connection between Hellmouth42 and Hellangel359 or just a coincidence?

Yep, that's very bad behavior from anyone on DT--not sure how he ended up on DT2 and don't really care. I also excluded the two accounts on my trust list. People really need to learn what to do and not do once they're on DT, and obviously this guy did not.

Nice catch, Avirunes.
