I voted for "Those who give reputation loans should be viewed as untrustworthy". However, it's difficult to prove that a certain loan is strictly a loan for reputation unless the borrower explicitly states so.

Like Blazed said, it's literally buying trust from whoever gives the loan. If we as a community don't trust trust farmers, then we should definitely not trust people who do reputation loans.

You might be directing this to the tsp/dooglus loan. If so, I disagree with that loan if tsp got the loan because he wanted to build trust. However, if tsp needed those CLAMs for his personal use for a temporary time, then I'm perfectly fine with it.

What evidence would you need to see if he was trying to build trust verses some personal use (in that specific case). That particular case did involve the building of trust, and I cannot think of a legitimate reason why he would need that loan other then to build trust. This is not what this thread is about however.
