Oh yeah, you're right. I apologize. I worded myself incorrectly. By change, I meant make it neutral or lower in that sense.
I apologize.
http://archive.is/mohqYBut still, I was on the right path. What I meant was to inform people that the moderators can do something about a rating if you just plead your case like this person did. Indicating that ratings are indeed monitored.
Congratulations. You have successfully proved that moderators, just like any other user here, can change
their own trust ratings to neutral/negative.
AFAIK, the trust rating that BadBear removed was one that BadBear himself added to the user. Someone can feel free to correct me if I'm wrong.
