Flame war isn't really appropriate here folks.  I know that tecshare has had issue with default trust but I don't understand all the history.  I opened this thread before I ended up on the wrong end of a smear attack by quickseller.  But this isn't the place to discuss individual instances of trust abuse, here we're discussing ways to have less drama in meta and a cleaner and more understandable trust system.  Vod, what do you think of the suggestinos in the OP?
