As if a person tries to complaint against any DT or its action it would be considered as an harassment which looks totally wrong.

Yeah, and in general "harassment" is jut too broad and could lead to DTs abusing the trust system. I think anyone on DT ought to have a thick enough skin to take a little harassment/trolling/complaints without resorting to leaving a neg on someone who hasn't gotten one already.

If a member is harassing another member via PM, you can block those. If it's with posts, there's the ignore button. I'd argue that cryptohunter is doing a lot of harassing lately, but I wouldn't give him a neg just for that--and that's my opinion as to where the line should be drawn. Other DT members obviously think he's already crossed it and have tagged him. I don't trust the guy based on his insane ramblings, so I have excluded him from my trust list.

Getting everyone here to agree about what's ethical or not is going to be one hell of a task. It'd be nice if lesser-known members would chime in here with their opinions. This is a global forum with many different cultures, values, and thoughts represented, and some may see things much differently than xtraelv, me, or any of the other Meta regulars.

I agree with pretty much everything on the list so far, except for the harassment thing.

3. No trolling.

So why they can't be just banned instead of tagging them and warning other to be safe with these trolls.ANd also I don't think anyone banned in this forum for trolling but its against the rule for too long time.

Yeah that would be nice, but I don't remember the last person who got banned for trolling. Trolling is even more of a gray area than harassment, and I'm pretty sure Theymos leans on the side of letting people say what they want rather than making a judgement as to what actually constitutes trolling and then banning someone.
