Im sorry but We have never heard of a "WOT account" we are unsure as to what it even is, I am googling and attempting to find out.
In general a WOT =
Web of Trust is a distributed method of keeping track of reputations. There's both a
wiki and a
help page available for this particular implementation of the concept.
You say this is required and all bitcoin users look for it ?, could you provide an example please ?
For instance, you can't be listed on MPEx without one.
none of the casinos we frequent (yes we do play at others) has ever made mention of a WOT.
None of the food courts you ate at probably asked for your business registration, either. This is because you eat as a physical, not as a legal person. However, once you go on the other side of the counter, and start talking about the business of feeding people, your business registration suddenly becomes an issue. This is in fact what the WOT is: business registration for bitcoin.
Im thinking perhaps 1 section of the community puts great weight behind it while the larger portion (for gamblers at least) is ignorant of what WOT is and why its a good thing.
This is true. The general population is ignorant, and for this reason (among others) the general population is ill equipped to start bitcoin businesses (even if they can do just fine limiting themselves to a consumer role).
Pirate was trusted on WOT, thats was enough for us to dismiss it entirely.
This is actually nonsense. See the discussion of that point
here, and consider how facetious your argument is. After all, Pirate was trusted on this very forum, and you haven't "dismissed that entirely" it would seem. Why not?
