I simply never understood why all of you fight one another.
That's the politics/power-part that I hate most about the current DT-system. On the one hand it means DT doesn't just accept things from other DTs, on the other hand it now means some of the biggest names on the forum are fighting each other. I do believe the forum and Bitcoin ecosystem would be better off following theymos' advice:
All that being said, I still discourage retaliatory ratings, and with these changes I encourage people to try to "bury the hatchet" and de-escalate rather than trying to use any increased retaliatory power you now have.
- You should be willing to forgive past mistakes if the person seems unlikely to do it again.
Last time I checked we don't live in an Utopia, do we? From what I've seen, most of the time when such advice was followed around here it turned out to be mistake. Although this mostly has applied to randoms and people that are very-shady like Quickscammer.
