thanks for the writeup. any recommendations on changing the trust level from the default 2? anecdotal stories whereby increasing or decreasing makes sense?

I keep my trust setting at "0" unless I am actively researching someone.

When I'm looking at someone, I add them to my trust list and then bump the depth up to 3. This tells me who they trust and what the cascade of trust levels are. It is interesting to see who is "in bed" with who.

This is a great strategy! Thanks for sharing.

What about a linkable ledger that would show the cash value/BTC for negative-trust transactions? This might be a way of exposing any long cons.

Keep us updated... Very interested in seeing it in action Wink

Would be nice to know more about it. Looks interesting!

I would suggest reading up on the trust system. The above link goes to the announcement topic from the Meta section.

I'm going to leave this thread unlocked for newbies to ask questions and help each other understand. Useless replies and off-topic remarks will be deleted.

Edit - This is a useless reply:

I was looking at some of the security forums, and was thinking that the trust feature seems really beneficial to help in weeding about scams. Of course, one must be careful still... just makes it a little tougher for scammers.

I am working on a program that will allow trades to be done safe, avoid scammers.
It would be open source so people know there is no code that steals your BTC.

But good post!

Superb idea.

Would it be possible to use a client or app to couple a completed transaction with an issuance of a trust rating? I'm envisioning a sort of automated +1 for successful exchanges.

What kind of third parties do you mean?
This is a forum feature and should be obviously handled by mods/admins.

Sorry, reading your post with no context I thought you meant as a way to handle trades, not for the feedback.

I think the feedback system is better left decentralized, a dispute system would put it in the hands of the few. As it is now, people can look on their own to determine is feedback is genuine or not.

Could you guys at least think about a dispute system?

Stuff like that is better left to third parties.

I was wondering how can we "trust" the trust system if accounts are being sold and bought?

May I suggest that use of the rating system to reflect how much you like someone's posts or personality is counterproductive? I base that on my preference of knowing someone's trade history in a nutshell, not how well liked they are. The two might not always go hand in hand.

I see a lot of ratings like that on the #bitcoin-otc and forum rating systems. I could mentally ignore them, of course. As such, I don't know if there's any way or will to reduce those type of ratings.

(This is my obligatory first post.)
