I am curious to know why more people didn't try to warn others about entrusting TF with such large amounts of money if it was so obvious that TF was such bad news.

He was able to game DefaultTrust early on when the trust system came out. Anyone who attempted to question his trustworthiness was given a negative rating by TF and his friends from coinchat and their concerns were ignored by everyone due to the rating.
That sounds somewhat familiar to what happened with someone who was recently removed from level 1 default trust, although the use of negative ratings was not used. Massive amounts of positive ratings were used though.

That's what happens when you have un-moderated trust feedback.

Quick and easy fix : hire Vod as staff, let him moderate trust,and give his word a final say when it comes to abuse of trust; ta daa, problem solved.
At the least, scammer tags should have stayed along with this current default trust joke; so scammers would remain tagged

Just imagine how many scammers (and soon-to-be-one's) would loose their mind to this, aww jiss Smiley

cheers

Hmmm ... no. This will be really a stupid thing, why a mod should moderate the trust system? Wasn't it untrusted? However OP, I think you can close the thread because you have received the reply from the directly interested user ( $username aka TF).
