That's what I'm saying, just because someone is butthurt you shouldn't be able to give them negative trust in return, specially DT members. I don't know who did what in your particular case though.
Many months after I slapped TomatoCage with
Red Paint TM (and TC had been offline that whole time) he sent me a PM - the vocabulary was stilted as though the account had at that point been hacked. (I made mention of this apparent hack in two or three threads, but it was ignored) I refused to remove the negative, so TC gave me negative in kind and went back to being offline.
Mexxer-2 (whom I assert is an older alt of TomatoCage) likewise has gone dark and then months later got slapped by a couple of people on the DT for a totally different reason.
I had never interacted with him or Tomatocage before this, and Tomatocage has been completely silent on the matter--not surprisingly. That's enough evidence to convince me that the original TC is likely not in control of that account any longer.
For a person on the DT to be so cut up about a non DT member's negative on their trust wall tells me I'm onto something.
