You're completely ignoring lies and blackmailing that Vod does.
Yet you insist on highlighting a one-time vendor bid I did on my auction 4 years ago? Please educate yourself to understand that vendor bidding is
a normal auction event in various auction standards and countries, including the United States. It's not standard in Ebay, not standard in Bitcointalk, but is a standard e.g. in my country. For example you can check the biggest Finnish online auction site huutokaupat.com. It's given that auctions are by default with reserve, be it hidden, concealed or open. Even the U.S. law states that auctions are by default with reserve.
There is no written Bitcoin auction standard anywhere, so these kind of actions not aligned with the standard happen occasionally. And they are never dealed with how Vod here does, because
Vod did not rate me because of the auction, he rated me because I hurt his ego by telling him that I don't specifically trust him. This would be
obvious to you if you bothered to dig yourself up from the vod hole.
Also, if it matters, Vod does not even frequent the Collectibles section. He also
directly told me that he will red-rate me if I don't do what he wants. So who are you to now make up some other reason for his ratings when he himself stated it?
I expected someone to come whitewash Vod, as has always happened before.
but you've continued to act like you've done NOTHING wrong.
I do not perceive something to be done
wrongly when it was done in good faith and immediately learned upon. But that's just me, you seem to have a much harsher stance. Again, I only did something that's not according to bitcointalk auction standard, but is perfectly fine and normal e.g. in my country. Bear with me.
Regarding trust system & DT, they're better than ever before. Thank you theymos.
