I'm 611, and I'm glad that means nobody recognises me. Does that mean I get a lot more freedom to move around?

Like jackg said, it changed. You are now 257TH most recognized. Wink

Nullius is now on there, at rank 161.

I expected my rank to drop, but it actually went UP to 2nd place!

The front page now lists Most Merited, which means how many merit you have received from other people.

I know some people are going to think I am playing with this stat, but you can verify it easily. Just sum up the ranks for each attribute (Merited, Activity and Trust), add 1000 if an attribute doesn't have a rank - and divide by 3.

No because you're going to move up:

LoyceV and ETFbitcoin make a good point.

Merit is influenced by activity. The more activity a person had, the more initial merit they were given.

This turns my three pillars into two. Sad

I am going to change the front page to show Most Merited and base the recognition calculation on only the merit you have been given by other members.

You've earnt 500+ merit so you'll be a lot higher when the new protocol comes into place.

Another great work by VOD and how do you find time to do this kind of things. I have banned(due to some misunderstanding) yesterday and unbanned today by "theymos", but still your data not updated and still shows that I'm auto-banned. My activity also not updating in your site. So is there any timeframe to update those details or those details are updating in real time? or if a person got banned, does the system got stopped for that user? VOD unban me from your webpage Wink

I don’t think “recognized” is the most appropriate way to name this attribute. Maybe activity³ would be better. All of the attributes are a measure of how active a user is in various ways.

Legendary members, or those who were legendary as of this past January have a significant advantage in this ranking as they started with 1000 merit so in general they will have a better merit ranking

To better measure “recognition” I would suggest measuring the number of transactions a user has for trust (global not just DTN), merit and activity. Ideally you would also measure the number of times someone is mentioned in posts, however I don’t know that you have captured the content of posts.

Nifty site, useful reference for finding peoples on Bitcointalk. I was thinking recognition would also rely on threads started and popularity of those threads. Its possible someone who codes but doesnt really talk much could be a very significant figure in crypto even on the forum where they dont post that much but people talk alot about what they did on the thread started to launch their software, website or protocol etc.
Also its possible some are notorious but not especially respected while still recognised

I am surprised that nullius isn't there but this guy(newbie) is: https://bitcointalksearch.org/user/deftnerd-95463. nullius has more activity, same trust(sort of), and more merit than him.

It's based on the average of 3 different rankings. nullius is 628th most trusted, but doesn't even show up on most Activity and most Merit(ed). I think the airdropped Merit shouldn't count, that would put nullius a lot higher. Now many Legendary accounts fill the top 1000 because of the initial Merit, just like old accounts fill the Activity already.

I think it would have been the activity/rank metric that kept nullius off the list.

I see some trust and a lot of earned merit but not enough to overcome the lack of activity.

Interesting feature, but i couldn't find nullius which IMO should be in top 100.

Looks like merit which earned by default when merit system significantly boost someone's "popularity", i wonder if your system only include merit which isn't earned by default?

I don't accept this to be correct, people can game, merit, trust and activity, we even have 2 well-known trust farmers/abusers here. Wink

That would be fun. Sort of like a ‘How well do you know Bitcointalk’ quiz.

Go for it.

At the moment I'm looking at the possibility of accepting Bitcoin dust for charitable donations, so I won't be able to do it.

I was thinking of starting a "who's avatar is this? " contest, but I think I'll let somebody else do it.

I think it's the avatars that are recognised, rather than the member. Blows you out if you use your avatar for bounty promotion. It means you don't have a unique identity.

There is one newbie on the list. deftnerd. IRL Adam Brown.

He has only 8 posts, no merit. Last time he logged was on October 09, 2017. But he received a lot of green trusts from his topic, where he sold steam codes

Consider that as an exception.

Even the most carefully designed algorithm will pick some of such users based on some particular activity or advantage associated with that member. Him getting lot of trsut through the way you mentioned strengthens the fact why one should not judge a member only based on trust.

That's not really even that much trust..

Is Vod's code biased towards trust from Theymos?
It also counts untrusted feedback? Counts age beyond 10 months?
Or just a glitch..
