Subject: Re: [unSYSTEM] Proof of Burn ==> Trusted Identities
having reading the parameters for ratings sent and received at
http://bitcoin-otc.com/viewratings.php

and other talks, it is perhaps missing the primary IMHO option for:

(x)Let x difamating-rate me up to (1-10)


*******


and with its custom defaults such as:

"i let everyone difamating me" (this is the normal happening around)





*******

we could add more specifity to it:


(x)For: (100) days, ()Publicly, ()Ever

(x)Compensable, (x)fully, (x)with:

(x)Warn me with: (10) days in advance

And:

(x)Get my: x resource

(x)Get his: x resource (you need permission for doing so..)

()x being difamated too
...

(x)Request reciprocity

Expires in: (10) days

Cast a custom curse:





******

note:

the tracker trust history would be more interesting with these kind of
parameters.. and some aggregator of reputators too, btw:
http://www.shareable.net/blog/aggregation-not-algorithms-is-the-key-to-establishing-trust-online



i have thought in generally protocolarized compensation or clearances of
bad ratings, but it is too much for now. i hope we all find 'the'
solution, the numbers given by ratings agencies generally have more
value than the bank accounts ones
