Except if I am not mistaken, there is a global default trust list, and @Lauda is on that list.
Yes, you're correct.
Apparently most users are using the default trust list, because trust is not related to anything they would actively need to configure for their priority use cases.
This is a difficult case to solve. Older members complain that the Default Trust system is flawed (which it is to a degree), but if this trust system was removed then newer members would likely complain that there was nothing in place to stop them getting scammed.
theymos did want to replace this system, however this replacement system had the downfall of requiring newbies to choose members that they have never interacted with to trust.
Thus as I said, a centralized GUI presentation of the trust as red text on @kiklos avatar on all his posts in the Altcoin Discussion retroactively into the past.
I can agree on this somewhat, however it's arguably useless to try and implement for the use that it would get.
Incorrect. Because afaik we start with a default list and have to proactively go edit out and nearly no one knows that.
The de facto trust list is centralized.
Admittedly it could be easier to find, but there is a fair amount of documentation available to anyone interested in the trust system outlining what it is and how it can be used. It's a problem with the users that they do not care to find or read it.
Four wrongs do not make it right, rather it is a clusterfuck.
1. Centralized de facto trust list for most users.
2. @Lauda knows this thus can abuse @kiklo.
3. @kiklo is told to accept this abuse, so he lashes out.
4. You guys have the wrong of blaming the clusterfuck on @kiklo accusing him of being a hypocrite.
3. kiklo was told exactly how to go about trying to change the trust left by Lauda, by
Lauda themselves. It is not the fault of the system, nor the people of the forum that kiklo decided to disregard that advice and throw his toys out his cot.
4. Complaining that a user that you have never traded with has left you negative trust, then leaving negative trust to people you have never traded with makes you a hypocrite. Complaining about defamation of your character, then going to to defame the characters of people not involved makes you a hypocrite.
Cover your right eye with a patch and try to function (I was blinded in my right eye in 1999). Consume enough rat poison each day to not kill you but to be so sick that you can not think clearly, have a failing liver, have delirum, headaches and barely enough energy to get out of bed. Remove all your finances and all the people who could help you, so that you are forced to work in this condition. Welcome to my life the past years. Until youve actually experienced this, then you can not comprehend the reality of it. Even words do not describe what it feels like day after day after day for years, with no respite.
And the fact that you can come here and have a sensible conversation with me about these problems, even after all of the things that you have suffered through, gives kiklo no excuse to act like a child about it. Do you not agree?
My generation X had to fight for everything (not spoiled, not sheltered)
And due to certain circumstances in my life, I do not believe that I fit either of those descriptions.
I give respect to people that give respect to others. kiklo has shown through is mass amount of threads, negative feedback spam and threats of legal action that he is incapable of giving respect to others. Therefore, I see no reason to give respect to him.
