A definition of Trust List(TL): Trust List
means when you trust me, there is something good you noticed in my reviews,
consistently, which I must carry on. And I must reciprocate in the same way by
trusting you if I see the same in your reviews(and most probably it will be
there). It may mean otherwise too, I saw something in your reviews(or somebody
saw in my reviews) which I was missing, so you become my mentor and guide in a
way. But this calls for more expectations and wish a TLian will demand.(More
definitions are welcome in Comments section).* Another definition can be when I saw your picture on your profile page, my heart says hoooo, hooooo, hoooo.
Some misconcepts**: TL does
not mean that all reviews written by trusted member have to rated as Very
Useful. Rather friends who trust me or who are trusted by me, we should be a little
analytical(and sometimes critical) while reading each other’s reviews to
suggest more improvements and enhancements. TL does not give privilege to rate
a review without even reading it thoroughly or without understanding it. *
Do’s and Dont’s:*
Don’t be too paltry in trusting people especially on
a forum like MS. Number of reviews do not matter, what matters is the
uniformity, style, contents and gravity of a review. I can trust even a person
who has written only a few reviews but who seems to be promising. Don’t worry,
you are not going to loose anything if you trust somebody, you are building a
new link, a new thread a new friend. This is a hobby site and not career site. Do
trust more and more definitely when you are convinced. Don’t delay, when you
like a review of a member(old or new) but new to you, do browse through some
more reviews posted by him/her and once you are convinced do add him/her. Don’t
hesitate in business in building a new trust relation, talk(M2M) straight to
the person you like – why can’t we be in each other’s TL. Each day, each minute
counts, keep on getting the credits and giving credits. Keep on adding gems in
your pocket. There are lot of gems around. Open your arms and the world will become
too small to accommodate in your heart.*
Types of TLians:
I am OK you are OK type:* You trust
me and I trust you. When I trust you, I
expect you to trust me but only if I proved my credentials
I am OK you are not OK type: *I don’t
trust anybody, irrespective of people keep on trusting me. *Mein akele yoohen
maze mein tha, mujhe aap kis liye mil gaye…*
I am not OK you are OK type*: I keep on
adding people in my TL without caring that nobody has or very few have added me
in their TL. This is point where I must know where I need to improve., *lakhon
hain yahan dil wale aur pyaar nahi milta, ankhon mein kisi ki wafa ka izhaar
nahi milta.*
I am not OK you are not OK or KFP type*: this
earth is full of mistrust. I should not trust anybody. Nobody likes me and I
like no body. KFP – Kee Farak Painda – how does it matter if nobody trust me
and I don’t trust anybody. Gham uthane ke liye mein to jiye jaunga…
Blind Trust type*: no worry
if you are a newbie, does not matter if you have not written a single review, I
am crediting my TL by adding anybody without any reasons.
Valentine Trust type:* I am a boy
and shall be adding all fairer sex personality instantly I locate one, no worry
if you have yet to write a review, still I trust you and vice versa. *Kis ko
pyar karun, kaise pyar karun, ye bhi hai, vo bhi hai.
About Distrust:** As there
is a reason mandatory in comment section when we rate a review as Not Useful,
similarly there should be a mandatory reason for Distrusting somebody on the
Portal.*Jab jab duniya mein paap badega, mouthshut pe distrust ka bhaar
badega.
