One of the dangers in starting threads like this is that other members may be tempted to follows  suit. I don't have many entries in my trust lists - mainly because I am one of the members who believe that trust is to do with trading. I accept the current changes that make it more of a reputation ranking however. My first reaction was to add you as an excluded member in my list, but I prefer to make my own decisions, and form my own opinions, in reality.

Perhaps a couple of PMs would be a safer option, and avoid public discussion. I created my helpdesk so that my decisions could be discussed in private if a member preferred this.
