I strongly agree with the initial poster, in that the admin or even the board owner should intervene if there are instances where red trust is given out in a frivolous or vindictive manner.
Admin doesn't need to intervene, the DT community has been doing a good job policing themselves. Stick around long enough and you'll see members being dropped from DT2 when suspected of distributing tags for frivolous or vindictive reasons. It's happened at least a couple of times in recent months.
