I don't think this system is flawed, i think you're just saying this because you have negative trust.
Here we have the first guy "plausing" the oligarchs just because probably he want's to become one of them later.

You're just jealous that your troll feedbacks to the DT members don't count at all. Anyway, this was a community decision, theymos wanted to replace DT with a more complicated trust system but community(majority) voted against it, so here we are.
I've never cared about trust and i almost don't make trades.

My critic is only an objective critic, and respecting what you said, well, i've always liked this forum but
the ones who don't evolve are destined to fail and be replaced with better ones, and every one knows
this forum has already strong competition, it's just a free market rule...
Obviously no one will agree with a new system if the voters are the trust circle itself, my God!, it's like saying:
"this dictator was about to be removed, we created a voting poll with his close staff and his family, but they surprisingly
voted against it!! so I think it's the people's decision."
