I think their time could be better spent in trying to get better security related add-ons ported for it, WOT, really isn’t great but guidance at best.
Unfortunately it seems the only people driving this are the add-on makers themselves rather than the browser developers.
Thanks Damien.

Hi Bob.There is a discussion going on at WOT forum about one of your sites being rated red.Someone that calls himself Silver Pirate appears to have said that the rating is wrong.But as usual g7w is saying the rating is correct along with shazza.I left WOT about a year ago and deleted my account so cannot take part.But if the discussion is about your site I thought I would let you know if out of courtesy if nothing else as I myself have used your shared files a few times.The discussions name is,I think this rating is wrong.All the best,Cod Head.
Hi cod head,
I know that bob3160 knows about this issue and he has not lost any sleep about it…

@ cod head
I left WOT due to g7w’s comments.
Hi YoKenny,
That is one of the very weak sides of WOT, non-reliable user input. They should always check and back check, because one should always question user input, users could have thousands of reasons to come up with bogus results - jealousy, envy, being loco, being awkwardly unintelligent, etc. etc. Distrust anyone and anything that lands there, proof it for yourself first and then give the results, and in that case you have grown to be a wise human being, and this is more true then ever in this time and age, because people have grown to mix up facts and fiction every day all of the day and they are being fed this mixture daily…

I think the main problem with WOT now is the Mass Rating Tool and top members not visiting sites but getting their information from sources that are not allways right.If a few members visit the same site which often happens then a good site can soon turn red if its a false positive.It also seems very hard to get the rating reversed.Plus these sources often share there information or there members get information from say Norton safe web and post it on WOT and Mcafee.Then it may seem a lot of security sites have rated a site bad adding strength to the rating were as in fact its just shared information.
As I have said I have downloaded from Bob often without any problem.And its wrong a decent blokes site is given a bad rating.All he is doing is helping people for no reward for himself.
BTW I use LinkExtend myself now has I get ratings from a lot of sites and not just one.
WOT must have some sort of a automatic website rating system otherwise I think WOT’s initial fame and glory will be short lived
I have also left WOT long time back for the good.
@ bob3160
You may as well beat a dead horse and get a better response to WOT corrections.
@ cod head
The Mass Rating Tool permits WOT users to follow users much like Lemmings.
Kenny,
Sometimes persistence does pay off. ;D
We’ll see what happens. I’ve already received a response and a request for some further information
through that post on their forum.
Only time will tell. (Hope I’m around long enough to see it happen.)
The clever little B_ _ _ _ _ _ s have rated the other site orange now.I wish I had never mentioned it Bob.I seem to have made matters worse for you. >:(
Here is a interesting article on WOT false positives on Cloudeight Information Avenue

Hi Gargamel360,
You reacted to an automated Afghan spam message, do not feed spam, please.
I have noticed one of the mods to take appropriate action,
polonus
Oh ok, have noticed most spambots that show up here seem to originate from there,
just used to seeing them try to sell something more in a more blunt way.
@ Gargamel360
You still have a lot to learn and a bit of patience as spammers are dealt with swiftly here.
@YoKenny
Yeah you could fit a plane through the gaps in my knowledge,
with room to spare, probably.
They get more narrow, though, day by day.
