"Posts per day online" [PPDO] is a nice indicator of what an account is doing or if its logging in, posting then logging out again. It also highlights how much listening they do alongside their talking, ie if they're just hear to preach about something. Looking at the gif, the PPDO of ACCTSeller is just 12, while the quickseller account is at 35 so that doesn't really make sense to be a shill.

for reference, the really obvious shills can reach 80-110, while generally spammy members can also be found as high as 60-70. Most temperate members will sit around 30-40.

>110 megashill / megaspammer
80-110 likely shill
60-70 spammer / 'main' shill account
30-40 normal people
<30 sensible people

Thanks for the info about the index. I think that the order of affairs here speaks volumes:
  1) the fact that I've had no interaction with ACCTSeller for many months (at least) and then the fact that as soon as Quickseller quits my campaign ACCTSeller appears in my thread and trolls me in every imaginable way
  2) no interaction with Quickseller during this trolling
  3) as soon as ACCTSeller necrobumps the old accusation from Tradefortress, the negrep from Quickseller appears within a few hours (with no interaction with me).

It's hard to interpret this in any other way. What else does Quickseller gain from this except fulfillment of the personal vendetta which he seems to have taken against me (look through his history, you'll see him calling me an idiot, saying that I'm a spammer, etc).

The other thing I can say about this PPDO index is that in the case of ACCTSeller, the account seems to have been used for very little until recently when it was used for about 24 hours to troll me (it has now gone inactive again). I don't know if this explains the PPDO numbers you point out (I'm a little slow and I haven't yet understood what those numbers mean).

Not this again! I, and probably a lot of people are getting tired of these fights.
@quickseller How old are you? 5?
How about you drop the drama here. Now I ain't gonna take a side, because I wouldn't be surprised if I got negative trust as well. What you should have done is ignore his alt too, and just report the necro posts. There needs to be a line between disagreeing and distrusting someone. This makes me wonder if the staff (or whoever adds people) has correctly appointed members to the default trust list. There are a lot more mature and reliable members of the newer generation than someone who intentionally abuses trust due to a disagreement(s).
Don't you think so?

Trust isn't really moderated often. This is where it is a problem. People suffer the consequences.

Thanks for the support. I'd like to think that this kinda of immaturity would get him removed from default-trust but I sorta doubt it.

I cannot say much about this fact, but I really doubt he will be removed from the defaultTrust list. Good luck with your fight, it will be really a difficult battle.

However

what is the purpose to leave a negative trust for a 'probable fact' of ~ 2 years ago? Maybe try to send him a PM and he will (maybe) remove it... who knows?

Thanks for the support. As you say, it's unlikely that anything will be done. I can't imagine that Quickseller/ACCTSeller is going to respond to a PM request to remove the trust as it was clearly his goal to try to uncover something in my past that he could pass off as legitimate reason to get me kicked out of the signature ad campaign. It's a shame that the trolls seem to have won this. But I guess that time will tell (I've been around longer than Quickseller, I assume I will be around long after him).
