TRUTH & Believability

Users all have a core level of believability. People whose information is usually contradictory (self or w/group or w/well established) wrong or inadequate = low belief score

People who confirm facts with low truth scores increase truth and their own believability.

People who confirm well established truths do not gain much believability nor does their input increase the fact's truth as much as it would a lesser known truth.

[11/20/2005 Once again I see my brain outpacing my ability to write. The second paragraph means: People who are able to provide adequate supporting evidence to bolster their low-scoring fact will impress the AI engine, increasing their likeability and believability. This is the equivalent to convincing someone that using "you and I" in the predicate is incorrect by showing the rule to them from a grammar book.

The scenario handled by the third paragraph is the one in which someone bores you by telling you things you already know.]
