How about you qwk will you witness evidence of a DT member blatantly lying and if you agree with me it was a lie will you red trust them and remove them from your inclusions. Yes or No?
Absolutely not.
I would not consider someone untrustworthy just because of a simple lie.
It depends on the circumstances and what's being accomplished with the lie.

How many times have we lied to our wives when they've asked if they look fat in a dress? Roll Eyes
(my default answer is: "I don't think it's the dress" Tongue)

I say though this lie is one that is financially motivated so the circumstances and goal are not trustworthy at all. I mean surely a person willing to tell a lie and stick to that even when challenged purely for financial gain is quite wrong? and not fitting with being on DT where protecting persons against scammers  (liars for financial gain) is critical?

This proven liar then show up on my threads 3x calling me a liar with no evidence even when challenged. Then red trusts me for telling the truth about him being a liar and encouraging others to view the evidence that supported my claim.

This is completely the opposite for what DT was designed for.

DT can not red trust people for telling the truth and encouraging others to view the evidence to support their claim. The very notion of using red trust this way is disgraceful and although I can tell you have a good mind for presenting a case for anything there is no way for this to be justified.

I would hear your thoughts on the entire matter. This is not at all the same circumstances and accomplishment as your example.

"Absolutely not", is not applicable in this specific case. Unless you agree with the actions of this person.

This is not a grey area like accounts being sold this is totally wrong and against the very principles that DT is supposed to represent.
