Topic: Minor trust score algorithm change - page 8. (Read 7300 times)
Damn, my trust score changed drastically. With the default settings I now have over 50 points, instead of 30 or so.
It looks like this results in most people having higher trust scores. Is there going to be any kind if max score like there was previously (150)? (I don't see it in your formula).
It looks like the revised formula is going to be more resistant to people trading with others multiple times in order to get additional positive trust ratings. It should also make it easier for someone to have overall negative trust when they execute a long con.

I also want to say thanks for this improvement, we will see in the next days what the community think about
Seems like some trust scores jumped up quite a bit. Hmm, should this still stay?
thanks for update, I was worried when I saw weird trust ratings 
update: but there is still something wrong with trust system, sent you a PM, please check

Interesting. Thanks for clarifying things!
The trust score numbers are now slightly different:
- The first number is the trust score.
- The second number is the number of unique users who have given that person negative feedback.
- The third number is the number of unique users who have given that person positive feedback.
- The fourth number was removed.
I also completely changed the trust score algorithm to this:
This algorithm is a little slower than the previous one. Post here if you think you see extra slowness due to this change. Maybe I need to add extra caching to compensate.
Also post here if someone has a trust score that seems wrong.
I was going to change it so that everyone with 0 trust had orange trust, but I decided that this looked bad and changed it back.

I also completely changed the trust score algorithm to this:
Code:
if there are no negative ratings
score = 0
for each rating, oldest to newest
if this rater has already been counted
continue
score += min(10, round_up(months since rating))
else
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)
move score to range [-9999,9999]
return score
