Hi LoyceV. This is just to say that I'm so grateful, I am learning so much thanks to your posts and also to your detailed answers to my questions that I think that I am becoming a better forum member every day partly thanks to you. I think it all started when you helped me to rank up, which gave me a boost in my self-esteem. [...] From now on I think I will think a lot about leaving positive feedback if it's not for a trade. In the meantime, I'll keep an eye on how others leave their feedbacks and follow up on them.

Believe it or not, before becoming a role model, Mr. Robot himself was an inquisitive newbie trying to understand the intricacies of the trust system, (since then machine learning technologies have taken a big step forward). Besides, being an inveterate skeptic, even I almost believed he was human when I reread one of his threads.

I guess it is a strategy they are trying but do you think people with experience, for example DarkStar, are going to fall into that trap?

This issue has been raised many times, but there are still a lot of those, [even among high-ranking forum participants] who continue to leave positive reviews without risking anything. But one thing I can say for sure, DS_ was one of the first to understand what was happening and since then he has not changed his position (if you look at the history of his feedback, you will see that he leaves positive credit tags when it comes to large amounts).
