BTW I hold ZERO Dash, just respect for its developer. If that's worth leaving somebody red trust over, and TECSHARE considers it a valid reason, then so be it. By keeping iCEBREAKER on his list, he's implying its a valid reason to him. Obviously I'm not changing any minds here, more just explaining myself to those willing to entertain rational thoughts.
I am not implying anything. I repeatedly stated I am open to reconsidering iCEBREAKERs inclusion on my list if you can simply explain to me why you think his rating is not valid. That's it. You haven't done that, you just told me your side of the narrative without actually answering my question.
"Nudilah is a Dash shill who apologies for Evan's massive Instamine (see his buttkissing Trust entry) and spreads FAKE NEWS about competing projects (see Reference link).
Nudilah also viciously attacks the motivations of people questioning multi-year delay of Dash's previously announced i2p and Masternode Blinding features. "
Explain to me what makes this rating invalid please.
It depends on whose guidelines you want to go by. These seem to be the generally accepted standards:
Unacceptable behavior that will result in a red tag:
Attempted or successful fraud or theft.
Account sales / purchase / taking an account as collateral
Merit sales / swapping / Sending trust/merit between your alt accounts
Offering escrow without a track record
Providing fake or insufficient collateral. (When misleading)
Shilling / advertising MLM or ponzi
Escrowing for themselves
Late loan repayments / loan defaults.
Enrolling multiple accounts into signature/bounty campaigns
Lending or borrowing to gain "reputation"
Committing fraud by selling bank details or other sensitive data.
Inherently risky business practices - PayPal and other reversible payments, discouraging escrow use, autobuy sites, locked sales threads etc.
Impersonation of any kind (although this probably falls under outright fraud)
Fake ICOs and other projects - fake teams, plagiarized whitepapers, etc
Any ponzi-related behavior.
Any behavior that involves an involuntary monetary transfer.
Shilling scams.
Using an alt account to abuse bounties/giveaways.
Selling gambling scripts or any "strategy" in a statistically -ev game.
Fake translations.
Hacked account.
Spreading malware
Constant begging
Unrealistic loan applications
Unacceptable conduct that is directly against the forum rules:
Plagiarism. * Should be reported to admin for permaban
Ban evasion. * Should be reported to admin for permaban
Unacceptable behavior that could result in a red tag:
These items are subjective and require some community discussion.
Extreme harassment *Subjective
Business activity that resulted in the loss of funds by others. *Subjective
Asking for a no collateral loan *Subjective This should only apply if the user has little reputation/is asking for an amount that is way too unreasonable for what reputation they have.
ANN bumping, which is negative to the forum.
Loan defaults (only if unpaid for an unreasonable amount of time)
Colluding *subjective
Leaving fake negative ratings*subjective
Considerations:
Before leaving feedback, ask yourself if your feedback makes the forum better, and (if applicable) is it worth destroying someone's reputation?
Should not be tagged:
Criticizing others.
Posting an unpopular opinion.
Leaving an unsubstantiated negative rating, if the user is not shady outside of this.
Promoting altcoins.
Using an alt account.
religious statements*subjective
Anything without solid evidence or very strong circumstantial evidence*
I would like to point to items in this last section, which I believe in principle you are in agreement with. Please note that none of the trust left by me in the past 4 years falls into this section.
Should not be tagged:Criticizing others.
Posting an unpopular opinion.Promoting altcoins.Anything without solid evidence or very strong circumstantial evidence*These 4 items all pertain to iCEBREAKER's feedback. About the news of Monero being excluded from Poloniex, it was true at the time, but obviously they had a change of heart and decided to continue listing it. I also pointed this out in the referenced thread. About Dash being a "scam," that is an extremely subjective viewpoint at best. Over the years, the markets have dictated that it is not a scam, and it has real world utility, as I admit Monero does as well. I just did not care for the way that the Monero supporters went about promoting their project, and I still don't, but its not worth leaving somebody a red trust over. (For example, it would never occur to me to red trust FluffyPony or Smooth or any of those guys).
OK, so there you have it.
