He stated what he did because it’s true. 3rd world shitposters are different than 3rd world contributors. Hell, I currently live in a 3rd world country, yet my contributions to the forums are often extremely valid. The major difference between a shitposter and a contributor? A shitposter’s sole purpose here is to earn an income. That is fine, but when it comes in the form of single sentence spam posts that don’t contribute to anything, it’s merely there to count as a “point” on a scorecard. That is not healthy for the forums in the least bit. A contributor will take their time to construct a post, and think carefully about what kind of message they want to relay. They will often think twice about posting, especially if their answer coincides with someone who has already answered the question. They don’t post in megathreads. They don’t care about the sound of their own voice. They do care about the quality of their post and the health of the forums.

I fully stand by The Pharmacist and what he is doing. He is not singling out individual users that he has a personal vendetta against; he is protecting this forum from substanceless accounts that are only here for the sole purpose of filling the forums with unsubstantial posts.

My advice to you would be to prove that you are a contributive member here for the next several months, and then ask the negative taggers to revisit your trust feedback, and at the very least to change it to a neutral rating. It happens here rarely, but you must be able to show that you’re a substantial member of this community. Are you up for the challenge?
