There is no decay. Ratings grow in weight from 1 to 10, then stay at 10 forever. (If the rated person has no negatives.)
Oh derp, I thought "months since rating" would be counting down for some reason.

I was freaked at first to see the change but then i looked up in Meta to find this.
Though am not disappointed but the previous Algo was better.

It looks like no matter what if the last feedback you receive is negative then you will either have a ?? ? Trust score or a negative score. Look at TECSHARE for example, his rating from Vod means he has a question mark rating.
Also TF has a negative 9999 rating lol.
not alwaysAlso TF has a negative 9999 rating lol.
I have seen users who received both positive and negative feedbacks and still has black trust ratings with first number 0
Edit: looks like trust system is not completely done, i have a seen a user who received 2 positive trusts around 6 months ago and few later as well as few negative feedback but still his trust rating is black with first number Zero (0). it should be either green or red because trust ratings are old. also total number of users who sent him trust are higher on his trust page then shown in third number in trust score

@theymos what is the thinking behind increasing the numbers? It makes changes too much. Was it to increase the strength of DefaultTrust?
Currently, even 1 trade with a DefaultTrust means becoming green soon. Earlier one had to wait a lot of time to become green trusted. It also makes changes abrupt. Muhammed Zakir went from ??? to +5 with one change in feedback.

There are some useful changes, but the first score needs to be rescaled. It varies too much if one trust is added or removed. Makes anyone in Default trust much more powerful and those outside it more worthless.
Muhammed Zakir's rating shows as ???
already reported about this ?? ? bug to admin theymosMuhammed Zakir's rating shows as ???
The code is : if(score < 0)
return ?? ? (orange)
Hence it returned ?? ?
Edit: admin theymos confirmed this, new trust symbol ?? ?
??? is a valid score in the new algorithm.
...
...
Then at least he doesn't have a "negative" trust red score but a pink one
... really cool.Thanks again for the reply.
??? is a valid score in the new algorithm.
If someone has 1 positive and 1 negative, then the time doesn't matter. They'll have a score of -1.
Examples:
Old -> New
+ - : -1
- + : -1
+ + - : ???
+ - + : 0
- + + : 1
+ + + : >=3
- - + : -3
+ - - : -3
- - - : -8

Doesn't that mean if someone receives a positive and a negative rating, they'll go negative if the negative is newer?

That seems like quite an extreme decay, ratings after 10 months are worthless? Its going to lead to a lot of reposted ratings to refresh them.

Yes:
It is a bug.... theymos can surely fix it.
It became an easy fix, remove LouReed

EDIT: It has changed now as the negative feedback became untrusted. This only shows how much it fluctuates.

Is there going to be any kind if max score like there was previously (150)?
Currently -9999 to 9999
I also completely changed the trust score algorithm to this:
Doesn't that mean if someone receives a positive and a negative rating, they'll go negative if the negative is newer?Code:
if there are no negative ratings
score = unique_positive - 2^(unique_negative)
if score >= 0
start_time = time of first negative
score = unique_positive since start_time - unique_negative since start_time
if(score < 0)
return ??? (orange)
Code:
score += min(10, round_up(months since rating))
I was so freaked when I saw the change in my trust score!
Yeah, keep people at neutral trust in black text.

Pleasant surprise, thought there was a problem with my trust
Thanks for the clarification. However, I can see that people have got triple the number of ratings in their account. I can see 13 as my trust score. First number is the trust rating and second number is the negative feedback I've received 
Damn, my trust score changed drastically. With the default settings I now have over 50 points, instead of 30 or so.
Same here. I saw 24 for myself before and now it's at 100..
Seems like a more straightforward representation of numbers though.
Aha, I thought forum got some bug when I saw my trust rating.Anyways thanks for update.
