I like your logic. The fact that TC excluded you is clearly evidence that OgN and myself are in cahoots. /s
You and TC were close around your escrow debarcle. TC has essentially copied Og's excludes. Og left you positive feedback very close to when this all went down. You've been a Nasty Fan for a while prior to this. All of the people excluded are people that have talked ill of Og or Nastyfans.
Of course none of this is proof, but there are a fair few coincidences.
I never spoke ill of OgNasty or Tomatocage. However, I have stated that Quackseller is a troll and a scammer, which I firmly believe. So Og and Tomatocage excluding me from their lists? Hmmm.
I don't really follow meta or the inner workings of the forum; but a telegram group had a few people applauding all these DT members being busted down.
Honestly sorry to see some of you go, like with any system there were people who might have been caught in the crossfire; but for the most part I think you had nailed it.
I didn't really have nay dealings with most DT members but do still look through all trust left to someone before making a trade, your ratings just had more merit before I decided on how to proceed.
@Pharmacist I don't necessarily agree with the wording of some of your neg trust, as some came off as racist, you were not in a position of power at the time and I did notice a change in tone after that. I also noticed you giving people the option to appeal after a few weeks to show they could be of value to the community with their posts.
For me trust only came into play for trading; for most of the people bitching about being negged it had to do with sig campaigns, because they wanted to come here contribute very little and earn an income.
Either way as is apparent in this thread there is way more history here than I've been around for; and it shows that the system wasn't and still isn't (merit system is far from perfect) ready for the huge increase in activity this forum has received from the recent boom in Crypto.
Long story short I hope you all still continue to leave people trust accordingly because some of us actually review the entire feedback left section and not just the rating under their profile.
