You are fucking delusional. You earned those ratings you wackjob fuck.

Also, you have nothing, no proof of shit - because nothing ever happened, you fool.

Your new DT1 member folks! This site is slowly turning into a home for 4chan rejects.

I prefer to describe this forum as 4chan with an extensive research library.

I am not sure if I understand the 4chan reference, at all.

Is there some kind of implication that 4chan is an out of control (or wild and unwieldy) place in part due to its size? And therefore the changes to this forum's trust system has moved this forum in that chaotic and wild direction?

At this point, I see the changes in DT to be causing: 1) more input from regular members regarding which members might get on DT1 (specifically through the weighted merit voting), which thereafter affects DT2 and subsequent DT layers and 2) a likely expansion to the number of members who are on DT1 (and by implication increasing the number of members on DT2 and subsequent DT layers - moving more members up to higher levels of DT).

So, in that regard, if I am correct in my above guess about what OgNasty and you mean to imply by the 4chan comment, then there could be some truth to your statement that this forum is moving more in a direction of a more dispersed power structure, yet there seems to be some attempts at systemizing this place in a kind of way that attempts to organize the chaos and therefore the changes to DT may not go so far as having the level of chaos that is implied by OgNasty's above quoted (and seemingly exaggerated) attempted comparison about the current situation.

By the way, to me, it seems that sometimes strong comments and perhaps harsh language might be needed and useful in order to clearly and unambiguously make certain points.
