If I am not wrong
mdayonliner got tag just for asked escrow 20
BTC and later on he withdraw his offer. But feedback is still remain. So why should remove negative feedback from Bountyhunter.io ?
If I'm not mistaken, I think I voiced some disagreement about that feedback on mdayonliner. I happen to believe he wasn't intending to scam but wouldn't rule out the possibility of it happening if someone actually sent him that $100k (or whatever the number was). I also think he's learned his lesson about doing stuff like that and don't think that feedback removal by hilariousandco would be a bad idea at this point--but there's also the ponzi stuff that other members feel strongly about, and I don't think that feedback is going to be removed.
Most of you may not believe this, but I
do believe in second chances and removal of feedback if the member has learned his lesson. I've removed lots of negs from account buyers/sellers if they've not repeated the behavior and have shown evidence of being a valuable member of the forum.
I may not have made myself clear in my previous post, but I am
not arguing that LoyceV should remove his feedback. I'm saying I don't understand the explanations given by bountyhunters.io enough on a technical level to judge whether what he was doing was the only option (which is what he initially seemed to be arguing) or whether he was caught in a lie. I get that asking for private keys is a no-no. I also get that a member with no escrow history who's not on DT offering to escrow $100k is a no-no. Both of those things are huge red flags.
In my previous post I said that if bountyhunters.io changed their method to one that doesn't require private keys and if they haven't scammed anyone, LoyceV's feedback might be worth removing. But suchmoon's point I hadn't considered before writing my post:
Here's the thing though: they only did this after get called out and it's impossible to ensure that the keys they already (possibly) collected wouldn't be misused. It's up to LoyceV to decide how much time needs to pass to review this again but I'd say it's all still too fresh ATM.
If they've got a bunch of people's private keys, they still could scam if they wanted to. It does make sense to me now to leave the neg intact.
