Redsn0w tends to only point out scams that everyone should see or scams that he is told about (he usually doesn't require evidence for this). The only reason he is on default trust list is because he gave CanaryInTheMine positive trust a while back.

[...] has removed his trust.

Vod is very good at spotting scams and calling out scammers. His feedback is accurate as you were buying trust.

Your trust rating to Redsn0w is accurate because you are right he should be more careful with others' property. I am actually surprised that the community did not react more negatively towards him (maybe because he did not have enough time to 'make it right' for all parties involved before the situation resolved itself)

No. Vod thought I was buying trust because he thought I didn't need the loan. His feedback states "By his own admission, he does not need loans because he has the BTC to use as collateral. He *requires* you to leave him positive trust after he repays the loan or he will leave you negative feedback."

Neither of this is accurate. I explained why I needed the loan several times and why I was willing to use LTC as collateral. If you look at the reference he points to, I ask that positive trust be given to me as a courtesy. This is not about trust buying. Prior to the negative feedback I asked Vod to discuss with me how I should word a loan request to satisfy his criteria. I pointed to the escrow/collateral sticky at the top of the forums several times but instead of responding to me and helping me understand, he ignored me and negrated me. I view this as unacceptable behavior.

You were clearly trying to buy trust, here is a direction quote from your loan request:

Once the interest is paid to you at the end of the loan period (within 48 hrs), you must give positive feedback (with a reference) for the full amount of the loan. Failure to give positive feedback will result in you breaking the terms of our contract and I will get to keep the money you lent me. If this is not possible for some reason you agree to receive a scammer tag until I am paid or positive feedback is left on my account for this loan.

Contractual obligation to leave positive trust under threat of default is not "a courtesy", it is trust buying, and you deserve the negative feedback.
