People rarely, in my experience, leave low DSR ratings. You have to be under one-half of 1% or better to get Top Rated status.
I have never had an account go over 1% bad DSR's. If you end up at 3%, either your product has a problem, or you should re-write your listing. Most people don't leave bad ratings like that unless they are really angry.
I know negative feedback drops off a account taking the score back up a year after it was added.
But what happens to dsr's? I know the low scores drop off after 12 months, but does that take the DSR score up or down?
For example if I never sold on a certain account for a year, after that year does my DSR score go down or back up to the maximum 5?
Hope this makes sense.
1 or 2 dsr's or more than 2% 1 or 2 DSR rating in any consecutive evaluation period. In my experience that's when your account gets in danger of getting restricted.
the key is not to trigger that in any 2 consecutive

Am I understanding this correctly? So if you get 3 low dsrs per 100 sales you can be suspended?
Seems overly strict.
months...for example, you can get 3 low dsr's a month as long as the number of DRS's is below 2% of number of transactions, or you can have more than 2% low DSR's as long as your total number of DSR's is two or below.
You will get a warning after the 1st month, then your selling limits will be cut after 2-3 months, and they will restrict your account some time after that.

I really did a through study of people I'm pretty sure left low dsr's and here's what I found. I sell $2-500 custom made items so people were generally quick to ding you with low dsr's.
Listing says ship in 5 days and ships in 7 = about 10x higher probability of low DSR's
Listing says ship in 10 days and ships in 7 = basically zero low dsr dings.
