Topic: So, how *exactly* does the trust system work? (Read 509 times)
The trust system confuses the hell out of me. I thought you got green when you had a positive trust from a trusted member of the site, but I see you have one and are not green.
I've read most of the FAQ threads around here, missed that one. How emasculating.
Thanks Danny
Thanks DannyNo worries.
Hopefully others who have similar questions and stumble across this thread will find the newbie readme equally useful.

From the NEWBIE README pinned to the top of the Newbie sub-forum:
I figure this would best be put under the noob section.
I get that it is nothing but a record of a user's trades to be taken for what it is. It's not a magic barometer that means you won't lose your Bitcoins when dealing with this person.
But what does it all mean?
For example, on my profile I'm looking at this:
0: -0 / +2(0)
What does each number mean? It looks like Total Trust: -negative deals \ +positive deals (mystery number)
Furthermore, what does it take to make that sumbitch green and legitimize my presence as a trader? I'm guessing my account needs to be more than 2 weeks old, but I've completed a couple transactions with members here and it never gets any easier.
Any and all details you can elucidate for me on the trust feature would be appreciated.
Many thanks.
