Hi guys! Let's talk about the problems and misunderstandings. And how we can get out of this.

The first thing I think should be done - to make a list of questions and claims on both sides. We will be able to discuss them constructively without unnecessary emotions.

A good start could be to get a solid group of Russian members to acknowledge and accept a few ground rules for how the trust system should be used, such as:

xtraelv has a good thread here: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5099391
AverageGlabella https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5098422

Perhaps these can be cleaned up and translated to Russian. If there is anything that's going on the Russian board and not addressed in the above threads - that would be great to know as well.

In addition to that, it's important to have reputable and responsible non-DT members post trust feedback where appropriate as well so that there would be some way to evaluate their judgement if e.g. they're considered for DT in the future.

This would help to alleviate concerns that we saw immediately after the DT expansion how for example some new DT members posted a number of vague trust ratings without references etc. While there was probably no ill intent with most of those, it's hard to judge that without context.

From the other side I would still insist that anyone merely commenting in a controversial thread and/or being in a shady person's trust list should not be excluded or red-trusted. I know there has been some progress there, I haven't caught up with all threads yet.

Welcome back to DT2.
