Probably most importantly, the negative trust being left by some users is diluting the effect of negative trust on actual scammers, which has resulted in multiple instances of scammers being able to scam
Oh QS, the already-proven scammer, constantly pulls this bullshit claim out of his ass.
QS has never argued from facts. Anyone who takes the time to read through his many attack posts (I don't really recommend it) will quickly find the weasel-words, the emotional appeal, and the convoluted structure. In short, he drops walls of text which at first glance seems like an argument, until you actually unpack it and realize it's mountains of unsubstantiated claims with a few walletexplorer links thrown in. What's funny to me about this thread is that the OP's actual complaint is connected to this QS directly. I don't know about the pharmacist and I don't spend anywhere near as much time on here as I used to, but QS was on of the main people doing exactly that sort of trust-spamming trust-echoing in an effort to get onto Default Trust. Presumably, he would have eventually pulled some sort of giant exit scam, but he was caught doing some minor stealing of escrow fees and lying about his identity and so he was removed and since then we just have bitter QS who throws random claims at dooglus once a month.
All I'm saying is that the OP's complaint of people abusing the trust system, and people jockeying to be the next one on default trust does exist. I'm not saying that cryptodevil or the pharmacist are guilty of it.
