You haven't answered the last question:

Would you say that you are a part of any Clubs, Groups, or indeed Gangs here on Bitcoin talk? Please elaborate.
Yes, the Wall Observer chat group. I'm an established member of the bitcointalk forum at large, not an OG, not a complete noob, and have been engaged in mining, collectibles, beginners, dev'n'tech, meta, alts, locals. The gangs thing was funny, but unreal.


Do you feel that you are unbiased? Please elaborate.
No, meriting is subjective. I have strong opinions. I do merit posts that are well-composed and make a good point, even if I disagree. And I merit in threads that hold my interest, ie from my watchlist. I will have to go beyond that if I need to get rid. Meriting is inevitably something of a circle, you rate the people you rate.


How would you distribute merits? One per post? Ten merits per post? Some skewered in one direction, but not another? Please elaborate.
Depends on how many I might be allocated. For now, one per post, two for something very good that got no others, but as I said somewhere in this thread, more for a post to help a user that I rate to rank up, and I look to see how many total merits a posts get within current norms. If I get allocated a tonne to give, I will find a new balance.


Given you are wanting to be seen to be accountable (my words, not yours) I can't help but notice this:
I should have said I want to be openly accountable in meriting, but am happy to address your veer towards off topic into trust here. If the discussion extends much further we ought to split the thread off.

~Timelord2067's judgement is Distrusted by: Last of the V8s
My questions on this are:
snip
What have I done to warrant "distrust" from you? Please elaborate.
You should have said "distrust my judgement". You made in my judgement spurious flags against Bruno's old accounts. You put unclear comments in people's trust pages, such as 'Bruno is back from the dead' when there is no evidence. Some of your statements cannot be believed. There should be no need for interpretation, for example that you might be joking or flippant.


Have you given other distrusts to others who are similarly inactive in trading / non-scamming etc? Please elaborate.
Yes. The tilde function within the trust system means you do not trust someone's judgment. There's a slippery slope from making unsupportable accusations to disingenuous-ness and worse. You do scrabble to stay near the top of the slope, but I do not trust your judgement in matters of trust. You should not be there on that slope, to start with.


How can we work together to bring consensus between us, so that I "trust" you and that you no longer "distrust" me. To clarify, if you are unprepared to work through differences you have with others, then I don't believe you should be a merit font. To further clarify, I neither trust you, nor[e] distrust you simply because our paths have never crossed. Please elaborate.

You can look at the feedback I give and at my trust list. Decide whether you trust my judgment, and that of those I trust, and react accordingly.

I've done that already for you. If you want to quiz me on another trust action I made, welcome, but best do a new thread for it. I've stated above in blue why I ~ you, that is, why I distrust your judgement in matters of the trust system, by giving examples of your actions. If you want to discuss my meriting, have at it here.

Our paths have crossed in the sense that we have read each other's feedbacks and studied each other's lists. We haven't given each other red or black trust because we have not traded, but you are asking questions about judgement.

Hi,

I have a set of questions that I have been asking other Merit Source applicants:




Would you say that you are a  part of any Clubs, Groups, or indeed Gangs here on Bitcoin talk?

Please elaborate.




Do you feel that you are unbiased?

Please elaborate.




How would you distribute merits?  One per post?  Ten merits per post? Some skewered in one direction, but not another?

Please elaborate.

My questions on this are:

Given I am impartial by not taking sides, together with I don't trade (not often and when I do I am usually selling BTC, so I have all the risk) so there are no scam accusations, no (active) flags against me and since I took over the Known Alts thread it is no secret that I have taken a mostly hands off approach to investigating alts (so any investigations and their conclusions are multiple years old I.E. enough time to be proven or not).

What have I done to warrant "distrust" from you?

Please elaborate.

 Embarrassed  Means a lot; thank you Phil. And everyone else too Shocked

Got some time to look through just my watchlist a bit; picking up a lot need merits.

edit: archived the front page again https://archive.is/tIuGE in case of backscratching allegations - I didn't know who merited me, I saw I had a gained a merit while afk, and rushed just to merit the next person on my little list, who turns out to be the same chap.  Roll Eyes coincidence!

sigh,

As much as I hate to say it about such a rival, V8 would make an exemplary source.

Actually, I was pretty surprised to learn that he was not already one.


Yep  I always thought that he was a merit source.

He should be one!

Shame on me, I'm not often reading the famous WO (can't read tons of pages every day  Wink) but I think you are very active on the forum and know where Merit still lacks a bit. So I would totally support your application.
I've also seen you are spending some time in Beginners and Help, that's always a good decision.



...we're not always serious curiously in the WO, and there is unspoken agreement that jokes and memes are worthy.
Well said, good Memes shouldn't go unmerited. ^^

Only just noticed your Merit Source application via a post by JSRAW in the WO thread (too busy with RL stuff lately). Merited and fully supported, of course. Hope it'll soon be approved.

No need to merit me, save it for some other post that's really worth something.

Merited, your posts are good in general, but please don't merit me, save up for another post you want to signal?

I just merited the user meriting the merit-less meriter. Merit source thread are merit source for many users in the thread.

No smerit to merit this application to meritsource, which is certainly a shame because over the many years I've lurked here, I've observed that meriting this application for meritsource is certainly merited. Merry meriting!

This is not a joke that you are not a merit source? :-D
Unexpected discovery! I have no option but to support your application buddy.

Stay safe.
You got to hang around the WOrld a bit to see his work. Wink
It is a strange but a sensical place ~showing internal logic.
Just dont stay too long or you will be locked in to never get out of the rabbit hole once you enter.
"You chose to take the red pill." *in morpheus voice* Cool

Approving of V8 as a merit source since he has forsaken the vegetas for the last of the gokus. Cheesy

^ Well then it is settled. Just trying to show a level of willingness to put in some effort to change.

Tarted up, or rather down, the o.p. to make it easier to navigate and a bit less V8s-ish.  Roll Eyes

Your feedbacks are welcome. Thanks to JSRAW and nutildah for their tireless whipping me in to shape.

@V8 MS application takes some time to approve which you already know, so for next weeks i suggest you to keep updating your application on regular basis with new additional good posts and it would be nice if you mention > this post deserve this amount of merit< once you reach your desired merit quota for particular post then replace it with the new ones and keep updating your history log in OP.

My support for your application.

Thank you very much, young Padawan. Gosh, crack the whip why don't you? lol. It is a very good idea, though, and I'll take you up on it. Please could you help me by pm'ing any good posts you see in your regular haunts? Not too many, as I'm still in straightened circumstances. And I'll revise the op regularly as my logged merit-waiting list.

Genius, you are. I remember when you were a mere stripling and would cheek me about my nation's wrongdoings - what fun we had - and now look at you, soon-to-be legendary member yourself.

As to numbers, though, one usually is enough for me to signal a good post. If and when I get source-ship (or sauceboat let's immediately rechristen it), then I will be able to lavish higher numbers on people rather than posts iyswim. edit: plus re-appraise if any posts are extra hot./edit

It'd be interesting to see what kind of posts received merit from you, i support your application.


Thank you for your support. Means a lot from you, a highly knowledgeable and helpful member. Please don't examine my past meriting too carefully, we're not always serious curiously in the WO, and there is unspoken agreement that jokes and memes are worthy. That's in part why it took me so long to avoid asking for this bit of responsibility, I am old and tired and had little time till now to seek out new life, new frontiers, to boldly go ...
