the "threats" clearly aren't working.

And that.

(AFAIK it would require like 3-4 negative ratings to bring suchmoon to Negative and I doubt that would happen as then given the "hype" that would create that would start petty rating wars)

Actually, no. (This is the point of my hereby post.)

It would require negative ratings from trusted people to affect suchmoon in any way whatsoever. Check my trust page. With a relatively new account and moderate anti-abuse activity, I already have 5 negativesall retaliatory red from morons. Do I like like Im in the negative to you? Now, look at suchmoons trust page. I count about seven dozen red marks. Like mine, they show under Untrusted feedback unless youre stupid enough to add people like Danos to your trust list.

Or if you really want an eye-popping sight, look at Laudas trust page. There, in addition to about a zillion untrusted red marks from whining spammers and scammers, you may see a few allegedly trusted negatives from OgNasty and shorena. It is for this reason that I recommend setting exclusions, such as ~OgNasty. Or better still, dump DefaultTrust and set up your own trust list from scratch. I currently have the following at my Depth 0, and the world of the Bitcoin Forum looks quite different to me than it will to you:

That is my trust list quick fix. Lauda has more detailed recommendations; but I want to develop my trust list independently, and the foregoing suffices for me for now.

There is much more to learn about the trust system. I suggest you start with theymos announcement thereof, although n.b. that some things have changed in the five years since his OP in that thread. Also, its ironic that the first reply was from TradeFortress, who subsequently pulled one of the worst long-con scams in Bitcoin Forum history. By the way (I know you replied there; though that thread may be difficult for you to understand if you dont dig around and figure out the history of the characters involved).
