Its going to be an absolute shit show. Scammers are going to lose their red trust rating left by legit DT1 members for a whole month. That opens the door for some pretty shitty possibilities.
This problem will remain with the current way of selecting the subset; the only way to really keep it secure with the way that it is would be by having over 50% of DT1 members tag every scammer that has been tagged so far (and I applaud anyone for their stupidity if they think this is valid way to handle it).
Theres way too many DT1 members, it needs to be cut to probably even less than 100 & I dont even care if Im on it or not.
I've lost oversight over DT2 members a couple rotations ago, the same is about to happen for DT1.
Maybe you should be required to have a minimum of 10 DT1 members trusting you to qualify or something.
I foresee troubles ahead.
The current way for entry is too easy. EFS basically single-handedly introduced several random people from his section by merit gifting them over the past few months. Are any of these people trustworthy or have shown relevant, and proper judgement in trust-related matters? Nope.
Not a single one.
However, this approach won't solve the problem IMO, some people will keep waiting for next month only to get their "vengeance", the best approach about this is to randomly select 5 members who "give someone negative trust for some stupid reason" and blacklist them from DT forever, then everyone will start using the trust system the way it was intended be used.
Given theymoses lack of action in many cases before (or well "lack-of-quick-action) this will never work.
