Disagreed. Just while it might not be the best solution to label both scammers and spammers under the same color, that's what
the description of the rating is for. Given the situation, it was decent.
That's partially why I sped up work on merit. I don't agree with using the trust system for pure spam; that's not what it was designed for.
Considering this, I really think you should ask them to stop giving negative trust to people with poor quality posts (and remove the current trust), or to remove them otherwise.
Here we go, another bad idea. Instead of tackling the problem at its roots, let's develop another complex system.
The damage has been made and I am one of them. Am I really spammer? I don't think so, every people has different estimation about post rating.
See, the good thing about it is that what you think doesn't matter. You can never completely objectively asses yourself, not that you have any assessment skills to begin with. Your posts are useless and do not deserve any Merit points.
