...of trust, what it is, how I go about using it and a few ways that I feel people abuse it. Now I'm not saying that my way is the best way, because I'm sure some people would disagree and when it boils down to it, it is up to you how you decide to use your circle of trust.

...this actually worked, and wondered how they would order reviews if more than one person in my circle of trust had written an opinion on the same product. So after a bit of investigation I found a surprising result, in general the people who I trust would always appear at the top with the most helpful review getting top billing when more than one member of my circle had trust had written a review on the same product. But occasionally a review from ... more

...How to enter my circle: When I first started here on Ciao, 3 years ago now! How time flies, I wasn't really aware about the proper use of the COT and I went around trusting everyone and asking them to trust me, I soon realised that this was not the way Ciao worked. Now a days I trust people who read and rate my reviews often and leave good advice, people who write great reviews them selves and put a lot of time and energy into what they write. I ...

Disadvantages: Cronic abuse

Your friends, my friends and their friends. The COT the community of your account.

Keep it updated and don't abuse it

Advantages: Allows us to make firends and gat useful ops
Disadvantages: Abused and tricked, needs checking

...don’t think they ever checked how their “friends” were doing. It seemed a race to get the most members added. When I joined Ciao I got on a few peoples COT and I then realised someone took me off after a few weeks. The numbers kept going both up and down, so I read some f the ops in this category and realised what people did. They actually checked their COT and made sure they read ops by those people, but they weren’t afraid ...
...trying to stay there. How To Get Added To My COT ======================== My criteria for adding people to the COT have developed over the months I’ve been here and I think my methods work pretty well. I tend to read ops by the subject, like film, reviews etc. but I do occasionally just read the latest opinion, it means I get a chance to see all the writers here. I never add off the basis of one opinion but I do try to see a members profile ...
