I think the trust system does way more harm to the community than good, it should be removed IMO. The amount of people I get direct messaging me on Twitter complaining how they stopped using this forum because of issues around trust is noticeable, or ranting about Lauda. I don't think these people are necessarily scammers either.

If I am not wrong you are very less active on forum I mean you are not spending much time on this forum. So your thoughts isn't wrong, because you are not aware about current situation of forum. It's true people's leavening this forum, let them leave. We don't need too much scammers here. For example, many ICO's scammer has been trying to promote their project on this forum. But unfortunately their scam activity exposed and got tag by DT1 members. So eventually they leave this forum and choose other forum to promote. So let them leave this kind of people's.

Better to just remove it. I'm sure the overall happiness of the community would go way up. Let people figure out for themselves if someone or a business is trustworthy, as they do on the rest of the internet.

In my opinion current scam rating on forum is 10% overall. If removed trust system no doubts it will be 80%. Perhaps even people's will try to scam you(LOL). There is lot of negativity about bitcoin, so will we leave bitcoin?

Trust scores are mostly meaningless, it's closer to a popularity contest than a true measure of someone's trustworthiness. Just by using this site, all of you are implicitly trusting me, but that isn't reflected at all in my trust score, in fact I probably seem less trustworthy on first observation than some actual shady people on here. There's so much angst with the whole system, maybe there's a way to make it work better, and tweaking it could eventually lead to that.

No doubts we are trusting you by using this forum. But it's by default, not for any specific reason that's why no one left you positive rating and other reason is your inactivity. Perhaps you are talking about green trust that you think meaningless. But did you think red trust really meaningless? No one here is not getting tag without proper reason. I am not telling 100% feedback's are accurate but most of them are accurate.

but for now it just looks like something that's dividing the community.

Wrong. Not dividing community, its dividing scammers and community. If 10 people's make sound against trust system from more then 2 million users then it doesn't mean community is dividing. That means 10 people's is virus and they should leave.
