This loos like quite a step backwards in terms of decentralization.

Given the previous size of the DT list, it really isn't.

To reduce the size of the DT1 list it could easily have been changed to 30 10 merit votes and 5 100 merit votes or something rather than greatly centralizing voting power.

I get the 10 merit standard, 100 merit standard, even the 250 merit standard, but anything over 500 merits is rediculous and depends too much on where you post, what you post about, and who your friends are..

I like LoyceV just fine but 6X as many votes as SaltySpitoon? lol no..
Is LoyceV 6X more trusted to make good votes than SaltySpitoon?

I think the DT1 list would be nice with around 50 members on it anyway..

Does the algorithm decide "most useful" before taking into account how many exclusions a member must overcome to stay on DT1 or after?

Exclusions are processed at the very end.

That is no good IMO..
What about all the extra votes someone needs to overcome rival exclusions?

oh no someone waking up....welcome to wonderland how did that red pill taste.

100 persons approx (250 earned merits I mean screw the old legends and posters who cant hang around meta all day) who derive the fact they deserve like 70% + of their merit from THEMSELVES are therefore now in control of both the merit system of control and the trust system of control. These now control every members ability to be paid2post and trade as a non tagged scammer. Some wanting themselves 2 paid2post accounts to sig spam cos 1 was not enough... details below.

Pull up on bpip pharmacist,suchmoon locyev, o_e_l_e_o, foxpup tman, lauda, owlcatz, iasenko , all their "pals" then check their top 10 fans and receivers ....LOL out of 150k users they just all happen to be riddled amongst each others others top 10s

then look who voted who on here - what the same people all meriting the same people all voting for the same people in DT

Wow can't see any connection can you?

NO COLLUSION??

Merit = trust? when the merit is gained subjectively from themselves?? then deciding they are also the most trustworthy?? hmm

Then look on the

Proven liars , Proven double standards, people proven to start 2x accounts and get busted sig spamming and trolling for real.. for extra btc dust,

Now with the new algo I see more people added - that's great news lets take a look. Oh shit they seem (read their post history and look on BPIP ) as obvious friends and sympathisers of these colluders.

earned merits = honey trap to find colluders to avoid putting in any positions of trust?

LoyceV the most merited (except special characters) show me 10 of his best posts right here NOT JUST SOME STATS HE PULLED OFF THE SERVERS AND PRODUCED IN LISTS OR GRAPHS. Show me some great insights he has made original posts then do the same for the pharmacist AKA HUGE BLACK WOMAN sig spammer got busted for trying to get on a higher rate of SIG SPAMMING.

Or if you want to pull this FACT BASED post apart which discusses the new algo to find the most suitable persons for the DT lists then I look forward to that.

Likely it will be deleted because of off topic or annoying, too long to read, does not agree with us, trolling aka bringing facts.

Wanna fix it quick, change it to activity 1500 + earned merits 100 max and black list anyone who has proven or been implicated in any financial wrong doing, proven to lie etc... no point starting with a ton of bad eggs you will just get more people who are ....bad eggs.
