modern "engineers" will be good guys until they become bad guys
so,
only if they submit ID scans to a trusted (by vote) forum member who will do skype session with them,
people can be considered trustworthy,
other categories are simply not enough for even 1 satoshi of trust
imo
I did a few transactions through this forum, never got burned, but maybe it was pure luck

In light of the last few crazy months, I wanted to share a list of all the people in the Bitcoin world that I trust to some degree. I will try to update this list sometimes (no promises) ... if you think I should trust you, pm/post and if I do, I'll add you to the list.
You are welcome to post your own message on this thread (or create another), with a list of people whom you personally trust.
Here are some trust flags:
- WD - I believe this person is a man of his word.
- RL - I have met this person in real life.
- ID - I believe I know who this person is.
- FT - I financially trust this person to honor his word.
(Sorry for overly complicating this, but I think it's important to break down trust into specific elements)
The list itself has now become a table, hosted at Google Docs
I will post when I updated this list.
Update 1:
If anyone whom I don't currently know/trust wants to try and get me to add him to my ID column, you can try sending me some of these to [email protected] (please don't send a pm, just email me):
1. Good quality scan of ID/passport
2. Facebook/LinkedIn account
3. Video chat via skype/Google Talk/whatever...
4. ebay account with good transaction history
5. Any other details you think can help
I will of course keep any details you wish confidential.
I am not promising to add you to my ID trust list ... I will consider the entire "evidence pile" and choose whether it's sufficient for me, or not.
Update 2:
Here are a few credentials that suggest you might want to trust me:
1. Most of my social media profiles are found on my blog.
2. I have already proven in the past that my blog (ripper234.com) is my own, and that I'm not an imposter.
3. I have done a 100 BTC bond via GLBSE (see link in 2), and paid it back in full.
4. A few well-known people who would vouch for me: Meni Rosenfeld, Patrick Harnett, Death & Taxes.
I won't post ID scans here, for obvious reasons.
