I say the current system is better now. The previous system was too easy to misuse (abuse whatever you say). One single person could change a trust rating with only one negative feedback. Example: Vod vs OgNasty, anduck vs VOD, Lauda vs others drama
But in this current system we will be seeing it's not going to happen very easily.
Is the current system having flags going to make any difference? Let's see if it could actually turn this thing into a system that makes me and many others believe in it. Let's see if this system doesn't really get manipulated by those big parties who were believed to be the "most right people" of this forum who abused their power and made the forum a centralized place at first look.
