It appears the default is to not have a WoT set up, so that suits me. Ideas like 'it helps me detect spam and fake profiles' seems a bit weak, fron where I'm sitting, because I can usually spot a spammer or a scammer or a bot and simply block them. I don't know that a numerical score will make that any easier than it already is. But I think you're right, there's a chance it blocks out new accounts and even worse, may help create circle jerk silos, or 'economy chambers', as they're more commonly known.
