I wonder if there is some "content" that you could post in a trust rating that would obviously not be allowed.
Death threats come to mind, so that's probably something that will lead to ratings being deleted.
Anything else is probably more or less fine Wink

I was not aware this was on your own profile.

It wasn't. I've complained in this thread that mine was shorter and I somehow felt "less hung" Wink

However, your latest red trusting of a vip member without proving it is hacked
[...]
Also the inclusions you have made on DT raises some eyebrows from several members.

Completely off-topic here.

Yes of course death threats and clear hate crimes are not allowed.
Those things are actually illegal are they not?

I guess that depends upon the jurisdiction of the poster and "postee".

The only way to abuse the trust system currently is spamming it or death threats.

If by "abusing" you mean abuse in a way that's likely to be moderated, yes, that seems to be the case.

I mean it is feasible that theymos wants everyone to have some red so that all traders are terrified of trading and take all possible precautions with every trade regardless of who it is.

I consider that a viable alternative to "trust by default" or "innocent until proven guilty".
We're not talking of hard sanctions here, after all.
Being flagged "red" on an online forum doesn't really do much more than hurt your feelings, so we don't have to apply the same standards as in court.

That could be a smart move to stop scammers but still it will result in people who feel wronged (rightly so from a moralistic pov) going ballistic when they first spot their red .

Weighing the possible alternatives, i.e. more people being scammed or more people "going ballistic", I prefer the latter.
