I left Neutral feedback for this user (IconFirm) and also for blurryeyed based on this investigation: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1064824.0
According to the investigation both username (same person) are guilty for Ban evasion (I am not sure if this is red tag worthy so I give benefit of the doubt) and also tagging people to satisfy their own personal issue.

I wonder how many of us really is following this instruction from theymos? If we would then we may not see all these negativity surrounding the Trust Feedback and we would not see people are losing interest on the forum.
I hope we do understand the instructions from theymos and execute the right one where it's needed.

You don't just dish out negs every time you feel emotional otherwise what you are trying to fight for will no longer look credible to the members.
I'm just leaving this here:Forgiveness and de-escalation are key to getting Trust working smoothly:
- Forgiveness: Often people make fairly small mistakes, but then they seemingly get red-trusted for life. This isn't really fair, and it discourages participation due to paranoia: if you think that you have a 1% chance of running afoul of some unwritten rule and getting red-trusted for life, you might just avoid the marketplace altogether. Red trust should mostly be based on an evaluation of what the person is likely to do in the future moreso than a punishment/mark-of-shame.
- De-escalation: If some people end up locked in a feud where they're only really giving negative trust to each other in retaliation for negative trust, then one of them should propose burying the hatchet and removing the negative trust. Otherwise it never gets resolved, and everyone is worse-off for it.
