Thread may have not been replied long.

Though, I have concerning issue with metatrust in regards of whitelister only interacting with other whitelisters. In a case, I have seen HoS prioritizing officers or security assistant who are also whitelisted, while ignoring other active officers. I have also seen when a whitelisted player, who were not playing sec at the time, ask something that can be done by other officers on board, yet treat other officers who were attending to them as no one and demand for whitelisted players they know to attend them instead. Not in, "I only want to speak to your HoS or NTSC", but directly calling that they only want to interact and act with "Name" and "Name"

It is rare. But, I feel like whitelisted heing treated as the "cool kidz club only". I wonder if this is a kind of metatrust? I do wish this is just a very rare occurance, because I do not like the idea of metaclique based on whitelist and people who they wish to be "whitelisted".

if anyone is acting like that, especially people on whitelist who are EXPECTED to not do stuff like that, you should really ahelp that imo.

I probably have some kind of unconscious bias on this subject.

On an ACTIVE level. I like to think I don't have much meta-trust in other players.

Let's take.... Genetics for an example.

Going to genetics for a gene scan is something I try to do often. It gives another player something yo do - and you might walk away with some cool mutations as a result.

I am 100% confident that the question of "if" I will ask for a geneticist scan is NOT effected by who is working Genetics that day.

Once I'm IN the gene tube is when I start to get a feel for the geneticist skill level.

Newer players are easy to spot.

When I do encounter a newer player- I usually try to let them do their thing. But, I will abort a scan and leave early if its taking too long and I have other things to do.

My tolerance is around 3 to 5 minutes. Any scan taking longer than that and I politely ask to leave.

If you notice this as a pattern it should be ahelped.
