"Attitude" is just a term I chose to describe the positive feedback minus the negative feedback.   It does not describe the personality of the profile in any way.

I believe, and time will tell, that people will higher attitudes will get more trust and merit.

Lauda PMed me a bug report that turned out to be a design flaw.  To not parse the trust page every time (which is a second page load after the profile page), it would only do it if the trust numbers on the profile page changed.  Leaving someone feedback does not change any of those numbers.

I will modify the code as follows:
1) LoyceV suggested I parse the profile after it receives merit.  Trust will not be parsed.
2) The profile is parsed on a regular schedule.  Trust may or may not be parsed, depending on current activity.
3) When someone clicks the refresh button, trust will be parsed.

I will make the changes when I come back from the Oilers game tonight.  



At any time, he can add pagination to the code.  5,000 or even 10,000 records might be a good limit.  That would mean 99.99996% of profiles (one out of 2.5 million) would never need it.
