I was pointing out a possible flaw in the current system.
Did he add you after or before you left the feedback?
It is not a flaw , I think we can send also a feedback without complete a deal.
The flaw is that by adding you to default list he increased his own trust rating.
This has nothing to do with you.
This. A flaw in the system would be that one in the DefaultTrust list could essentially increase his own trust by adding people that gave him trust outside of the list to his own trust list.
From what I said about a potential improvement for how trust should work:
there should be limits as to how many people can be on your trust list if you are on level 1 default trust. This will prevent the privilege of being on default trust being given out as a "thank you" for your customers.
There should be different formula for calculating positive trust if multiple people give trust feedback that are not trusted by different people. For example if everyone that gives you positive trust are all trusted by badbear then each additional trust rating by someone on badbears list should count for less while someone on theymos' list would count for more. You should not be able to receive "green" trust unless you are trusted by people that are on at least two different trust lists.
