Thanks for the suggestion. I will add him to the list soon.
Thanks for the add grtthegreat, I don't mind being at the bottom
I don't care how he orders the list (or where I am on the list), as long as it doesn't favor himself. Why are you in front of people who have been lending for longer and have higher trust ratings?
The way it currently is is very biased and I do not support it. Order it by thread start date, trust rating, or something else which is less biased.
Regardless of the order, get rid of the numbers. Numbers say that this is your personal opinion of lenders, which I guess it is.
Sorry but you misunderstood it. Its not based on anything, its just random. Its not my personal opinion. Please try to understand.
You're grossly misunderstanding what random is. Putting them down "in no particular order" based on whim isn't random (and if they are in no particular order, you should remove the numbers, as numbers mean that they are in order). You likely put yourself 4th because you wanted to put yourself as high as possible (as a result of both voluntary and involuntary personal biases) without it being overly obvious that you were putting yourself higher than you should be (it's pretty obvious to me, though). Even if you didn't think this, you did so without realizing it.
TomatoCage likely wouldn't be first if it was random - he's known as the most trustworthy. haploid23 likely wouldn't be second if it was random - he's proven to be a trustworthy lender and has been a good member for awhile. You go down the list and most of it makes sense based on the reputation each member has here (I can't comment about my own ranking, as while I know exactly my level of trustworthiness, it's impossible for other people to). The one guy sticking out is you - a relatively new member and lender, conveniently placed in front of a handful of more experienced and trustworthy members.
This is an entirely different topic, but true randomness does not just mean something is unsystematic and indiscriminate. Humans are incapable of true randomness. Most cryptography might even seem random, and for all practical purposes can be considered random, but it truly isn't. Randomness is very hard to achieve.
If you want this to be an unbiased list, you're going to have to change things. There's nothing inherently bad about something being biased, but that's what this list is. Considering you say that this list is unbiased and we can be sure it isn't, the only thing you've achieved is a loss of trust.
