Ummm, Lauda is an extortionist who has zero business being in any kind of power whatsoever.
Even if she is really an extortionist does not mean she should be removed from default trust list. As long as she had good judgement and is accurate in giving feedback, her being in default trust list in fine.
I would say that Lauda does not have good judgment and is not accurate in his feedback. Also being an extortionist would allow him to use the power to leave a negative rating that shows up by default as a tool to get his victims to pay up.
edit:
Funny how such a "trusted" member gets away with extortion and as soon as he loses DT power puts negative trust on me, after months of the extortion attempt which has been settled. He may be an active member but he is too power hungry and gets butthurt. Other members can tag the scammers, I don't know why lauda should be in DT again with his actions and greedyness.
He now accuses me of giving my alts trust feedback out of thin air... He is probably searching for another witch hunt on me as revenge of "extorting me and losing his power and respect".
Lauda has a history of leaving negative trust months/years after alleged incidents as a means to extort others.
Was there more than one case? Can you back this up? I have read previous incident, but I didn't find any other. I am not very active in 'Scam Accusations' board now. I could have missed it if there was any.
<-- Lauda left defcon23 negative trust months (if not >a year) after an alleged incident. He also left his first negative rating against me over a year after what he claimed I did.
