I hardly know shit about the trust system, except that I see that it is a link that I can click on in my profile.
And I can understand if you did a trade (or planning a trade)
The trust system is not just for trades. I can distrust you for any reason. If people trust me, then they trust who I trust.
Theymos picks the people whom he believes most match his morals to be on DT1. Those members pick members they trust to go to on DT2.
I disagree Vod. It's mainly for trading/selling but can be extended to scammers who try to abuse a loan situation which would be considered a "Trade" situation. Just because you distrust a person with their wording here on the forum doesn't mean they aren't trustworthy in regards to a sale or buy situation. I have said tons of shit on here that might make a person think i'm "Untrustworthy" but have done business with the likes of Mods and DT users alike with no issues.
I think it's a case by case basis which deserves scrutiny but doesn't necessarily warrant a Neg.
