you only gain upvote trust if and only if you upvote well according to other users

Do you guys consider then the order in which the upvotes were given? Because if not I can just upvote posts that already have high upvote count and that would increase my trust -- by having herd behaviour. Whereas if my trust only go up considering the upvotes that come 

, then ok, they are indeed validating my upvote -- then the system would be rewarding good curators.

Do you guys consider then the order in which the upvotes were given? Because if not I can just upvote posts that already have high upvote count and that would increase my trust -- by having herd behaviour. Whereas if my trust only go up considering the upvotes that come *after*, then ok, they are indeed validating my upvote -- then the system would be rewarding good curators.
