The goal is supposed to be to add users to your network that you trust in order to decentralize the network... Not really a measure of abuse. theymos has even encouraged us to add users to decentralize the network by voicing his displeasure with the centralization.
Strange that I'm listed as a clear trust abuser along with someone that is 400% higher than I am in his "artificially increased" rating while Hostfat, Cyrus, & Tomatocage are all within a few % of me or infinitely higher and aren't... Seems like someone here is trying to grind an axe against me or something?
The goal is to add users who leave correct trust without abuse, helping others to recognize trusted users from scammers
If you think the users you've added meet that requirement and should stay as DT2 then ask them to remove the feedback they left to you or make it neutral, otherwise you're abusing the system to increase your trust
I considered the percentage but even more the total amount of added trust points. You are red because you added 94 points (soon to be 100) to yourself. Specifically you've added 12 users not added by any other DT1 member (i.e. they are DT2 only because of you) and 10 of them left positive trust to you (83%). It's more than obvious the fact they added positive trust to you is a very important factor for you to decide to make them DT2
I wasn't sure if Tomatocage had to be orange or red, I had to put the limit somewhere. Imagine he is red too if that makes you feel better. Anyhow besides philipma1957 and you it's clear Tomatocage, Cyrus and maybe HostFat and Blazed should do something to prevent this conflict of interest
