Today my trust turned red from that beautiful black.I am a nike gift card dealer and reputation matters a lot.
Seeing that red trust made me furious enough to convert my frustration into ASCII characters.I am a non-native english speaker, but I will try my best to make you understand whatever I know.

I used to own a account on this forum.Using which I used to sell services related to amazon.Just like always, I was open for escrow service and always traded like an honest dealer.
I used to sell guides which talked about the manipulation of refund service of amazon.One day the mods tagged me for providing this service.And I got no warning for selling this stuff.I repeat "I got no warning".
I even sent a PM to the mod asking him to kindly remove his trust, and that I won't sell such guides again.

But he ignored me.So I switched to this account.
Again on this account, I was always open for escrow service and I always trade like an honest dealer.And I was no longer selling those guides.

Then today, this happened:

Am I really guilty here?
Do I really deserve negative trust?It's like a witch hunt!
I have always been kind to everyone(whos been kind to me).I even donate to charities.

Is this how the world pays you for being kind?

People like lauda and Avirunes makes me wanna believe in nihilism.
Should I stop being good and be like them? Should I give myself to my greed?

It's funny how everything I worked for turned into ashes just for nothing.

I'm not here to defend anyone, my opinion was asked for on this matter, so I will give it. The trust system is a "trust" system, it is not a scammer system. Keep in mind scammers are not to be trusted, so the system is certainly used to identify scammers. You are not someone I can trust because E-whoring and selling ways to defraud anyone is not being on the "good" side, is not "kind", and it is certainly giving in to "greed" on some level.

I do believe in 2nd chances for certain situations but I'd have more respect if you had stayed on your account, paid for your mistakes, and tried to earn a positive reputation with legitimate trading. E-whoring is not a legitimate practice to most people, it's swindling at best, which most people will see as a form of scamming - while you may not be directly scamming people on this forum, your scamming others to make money which makes you a prime suspect to scam here at some point.

There are some people on this forum that want a cleaner forum, less shady activities, and more ethical business practices. At the end of the day, I believe it's better for Bitcoin in general.

Alright, I agree with Ibminer.
