We can't stop dishonesty, we can only discourage it.

Are you saying you believe I should remove the negative trust
and just let the account farmers like Neotox continue on their
merry way?

Yes, but I also dont think they (Neotox at least) are farming the accounts. As I recently did escrow in one of Neotox's account trades, it was as Quickseller says. Someone leaving the forum looking for some coins. They sell the account for cheaps to Neotox and they resell it for more. Its a simple principle. A dedicated (and well known) seller has more time (and possibly a higher reputation) and thus can achieve higher prices. The same is probably true for those that mainly lend coins, but take an account as collateral. They dont want the account, they dont want to haggle over a few satoshi, they just want to get their coins back. I was in this position myself. I auctioned the account and I see it now form time to time posting in a campaign. IMHO the posts are fine.

I don't have a problem with their countertrust. Thats the trust system working as its intended,
and I'm glad they left it because now those people won't have a red mark if the community
thinks they shouldn't. Great! Everyone should be happy. Cheesy

I don't think I'm abusing the trust system.

It's my opinion still that account farming is untrustworthy behavior, is bad for the forum, and
should be discouraged. I'm sticking to my principles and expressing that opinion.

I dont think you are abusing the system either, but I dont think trust should be given to win an argument either.
