You're using the feedback system as intended, but this isn't really an issue with anything you are doing, but (arguably) others just buying things merely for the default trust feedback (which like it or not people obviously want to help make them look more trusted/established) for whatever reason, hence why some people are likely just buying things they very probably don't need, want or use.

On that front, save 1 person, the preference has been for my 3letter1number.com domain over my 13letter.com - which makes sense, as I'm not sure how many 3letter.com (did I forget about any 2letters?) email services are still alive other than Cox & AOL. ICQ, MSN (now Live.com, spammer/scammer central)?

Nope. My problem is when someone does a trade, just for that number. That number holds a disgusting amount of weight around here. And it just ends up with people looking for others who can give it to them easily.

Basically people looking for another CanaryInTheMine.

I've either forgotten or wasn't fully briefed on CITM. Are the feedback instructions the same now as they were back then? Was CITM putting down risked BTC to add undeserved weight to those who sent first/before contracts were in force?

If I recall correctly CITM was leaving feedback for anyone who did a trade with him then adding them to his trust list so he was artificially inflating his own score and people would then be only trading with him for the inevitable feedback and the inclusion onto default trust (thus essentially just buying their way onto it).

Ok, well for what it's worth, my depth is 2 & this is my list:

You take it a bit too offensive - that was not my intention.
I just believe that DT members have the responsibility to act as an example in view of how the trust system is actually used and working in reality.

And the reality is that shady people and scammers are farming not only accounts but also trust and people like you (even though you just follow the rules correctly) make it way easier for them to obtain just that.

It might be the case here that i'm wrong because i didnt check your trust list - i will do that by time - so i will of course apologize if i'm wrong.

But for example Quickseller (escrowing to himself with alts) and Bobsurplus (known for altcoin pump&dumps with several connections to scams/scammer) are quite questionable/shady members on your trust list.
