Personally, I'm hoping that once DT fills up, the older more knowledgeable members of the forum will be given precedence in the system by their userID
If the list gets too big and the limitation is automatic then it would make much more sense to increase the minimum required amount of total inclusions a member must have: +2 or +3 instead of the current zero for example.
That would certainly help the manipulators, so I can see why you'd propose it. I think it runs counter to my point though, as that would only make the problem of centralization bigger, and eliminate any potential improvement in this new system over the old one.
Wow. Now you just attack me without any other intentions.
What I'm saying (in case you're interested in an input and didn't just mean to say "I want to be in DT1 and whoever distrusts my feedback should be removed") is it wouldn't make sense to automatically grant DT1 status to older members versus newer ones, as you suggested. Being an old member doesn't necessarily mean being trusted or being impartial when leaving trust or choosing DT2 users. It would make more sense to grant that status to those trusted by more users.
That, or we return to the previous system where theymos picked DT1 members. Or we get a hybrid system.
