Huh.  So if you gave an account some greentext, and that account is sold and goes on to scam, you'll be removed from default trust?
As an educator, I sell my trust in the open, on Bitcointalk, for the same reason accounts are sold: so that newbies would know that such things happen.  That's how allowing Bitcointalk accounts to be sold has been rationalized by you, and I found your reasoning convincing Smiley

Again, you really don't seem to have any sort of grasp on how any of this works, which is why I highly doubt you have an account on default trust. Why don't you just start selling trust already and see how it plays out?


Either one of two obvious reasons:
1) They don't have any account on default trust. (talk to Quickseller, he might have some available!)
2) They know exactly how it will work out.

Just do it already, prove with a demonstration your business model.

And yet you are still responding to this "fagit" that you have on ignore. 

Maybe you like the smell of bags of dicks and you know I'd teabag your slimy scammer ass just to watch you gag, so you just can't stop yourself.

Wanna lick my sack Turd-Boy?  I'll sell you a tea-bag session for a few BTC and even leave positive trust when you send over the coin. 

And that's what this is all about right?  You're the hero here to save the forum from that bag of dicks, and are determined to do so, even if you need to do it one dick at a time.  Now that's dedication.

No shit?  But they'd start caring if I started selling Trust, you say?  I'm friends with them, perhaps they might not care so much?
You know, If I don't sell trust in the open, newbies might not realize that green trust could be bought, and might not be as careful as they should be.  That's why account selling is allowed on this forum, to educate the unwary, amirite?

Nope, didn't say that either. Me warning you that it isn't a good idea doesnt equal an administrative ban on selling trust. If your friend gave you the trust that you then sell to people, your friend would then be removed most likely. It's not a rule, it's just how people tend to respond.

Again, your lack of understanding of how trust works leads me to believe that you are making a statement rather than actually selling trust.

Lolno.
My story needs some backstory, beams and rafters of the stage upon which our drama's to unfold. Having the whole thing come out of the narrator's moth is just about the most boring way of going about it.
"So BespokeServicesLTD decided to sell his Trust, because he knew Bitcointalk has already turned into a giant bag of dicks."
Nah.

Letting the hero do it ain't much better, sounds artificial as fuck.
"OMG, BespokeServicesLTD!!1!," I said to myself, "is this humungous bag of dicks really what's become of Bitcointalk?"
Lame.

So we make our hero appear ignorant, allowing the secondary characters [you] provide exposition, thinly disguising our amateurish dramaturgy as lively question/answer dialogue [see this thread].

Enough. You've earned the first spot on my ignore list Smiley

Oh, Noz!   The Scammy Piece of Crap has put me on ignore.  That's a compliment turd-boy.

It's also funny that someone that is a self-professed purveyor of trust can't seem to handle the simple truth.





Oh, and I almost forgot:

In this thread most people seem upset about the idea of selling "trust". This is however a real and big business for many (SSL certificates are a prominent example, also bitcoin is all about trust isn't it?).

So if someone wants to be a trust provider on this forum, I say go for it. There are some reliable members providing this service, but they give trust when and where they think it's due. I'm not aware of any member providing trust on demand. I reckon it would have value.

I'm sure if they're accurate it would be a valuable service to some. Something similar happens with new hardware vendors. To be trusted they have to jump to various hoops (show actual hardware, have a company registration, show hardware hashing at a pool, have a "trusted" member visit them, have a "trusted" member review one of their products). And if they're not accurate they will get excluded from everyone's trust lists so fast it would cause a sonic boom.

PS. I know OP is trolling since their other avenues of discussion have not gone as planned.

Welcome to the SaltySpitoon, how Tough are ya?
I think this is against the rules, directly selling/buying trust. ESPECIALLY from a default trusted member which can cause LOTS of scams, giving the green positive makes people much less careful and let their guard down.

Nope, its not against any rules. I'm actually hoping the OP isn't lying, and does have a default trust account that is going to sell trust. We haven't seen it done yet, or at least no one has claimed or proved it has happened, so it is worth seeing how effective the trust system is at self moderating these sorts of problems.

I expect they will lose their trust quickly, if I'm wrong, then there is a problem. If I'm right, then its business as usual. What level of default trust are you selling, and for how much? I've got no idea how much people would pay for trust, and if you are only on the 2nd or 3rd depth, I can't imagine your trust will be worth very much.

No reason why anyone should get mad. Get mad if it works and goes undetected.

Buying trust will never work. Trust could be removed the second the buyer pays and transactions are not reversible. I think OP is trolling Quickseller.  Grin

Obvious troll is obvious guys.  I would just ignore him.   Undecided

Why are you so confident that OP is a troll? What he's advertising sounds very plausible to me.

We all know that accounts with positive trust are already being trafficked, it wouldn't be impossible for someone to acquire an account in default trust level 2 and start giving out trust ratings for profit. How long this would last for is questionable though.

Then let the OP sell a person trust.  He'll lose his trust right away.  This is nothing but hot air.

That's what makes me so confident the OP is a troll.  Put up or shut up.   Undecided

Unless someone that buys trust from him is willing to speak out (and publicly reveal that he bought trust from him therefore probably losing what he paid for) he could very well keep the name of the account that he'll be handling trust through private.

Edit: I know trust ratings are not private, what I meant to say is that it would be hard to be sure that it's his account.

No reason to get upset.
We're not dealing with legacy trust systems of yesteryear, Vod.  No!  This paradigm-shifting, game-changing disruptive technology is on the tipping point of turning into a Black Swan.  Revolutionary stuff, Vod, not to be rushed.

As soon as our legal team irons out the last few kinks and gives us the go-ahead, it's ON, it's Showtime!
Now then...
Will you be purchasing this Trust for your personal use, or as a gift for A Special Someone?

I'm not upset.

I'm just calling you a bullshitter.   Wink

And I'm done feeding the troll.

Vod, this isn't just any troll. And this is satire worthy of Jonathan Swift. Why am I the only one to see it?! Am I wrong?

Oh goodness! Clicked on your trust, and one instance of my browser crashed; had to kill it with fire process explorer!
Guess the Good Folks at Google haven't though one tab would ever be called upon to handle so much red text  Sad

Hope I didn't piss you off in any way, 'cos I wouldn't wanna be on your shitlist.  No sirree Boob!

If selling accounts was frowned upon or discouraged, more people would leave account sellers negative feedback. ...

From the unofficial list of unofficial not rules but suggestions to be interpreted however you wish:
...
18. Having multiple accounts and account sales are allowed, but account sales are discouraged.
...

mprep's forum guidelines reflect his personal opinion as well, hense the "unofficial" in the title.

Yeah, I've noticed the unofficial in the title.

Account sales aren't discouraged by forum administration, because they don't care.
