-Allow routers that the dirserver operators consider invalid (not
-trustworthy or otherwise not working right) in only these positions in
-your circuits.
-The default is "middle,rendezvous", and other choices are not advised.
+If some Tor servers are obviously not working right, the directory
+authorities can manually mark them an invalid, meaning that it's not
+recommended you use them for entry or exit positions in your circuits. You
+can opt to use them in some circuit positions, though. The default is
+"middle,rendezvous", and other choices are not advised.
