This is what we had thought. There is no way Theymos would act and request legitimate scam tags are removed from persons that have lied for direct financial gain.

Then is seems a very ill advised move. If we consider keeping the board "aware" of people that have previously scammed, been implicated in extortion, shady escrow dealings, and trust abuse.  It stands to reason you do not "forgive" scamming or forget scamming. It is straight forward, you try to scam or extort people out of money you are a scammer. It does not change over time, it does not matter who you are.

I think it in the boards interest to re apply the red tags and if you feel you need to apply additional red tags to be fair then get slapping those down on other people too.

Anyone whom has demonstrated clearly that they are dangerous in financial terms to other members they need a scam tag. Person on DT are not there to say : they are my pals, or we think they are okay now, or they may give us red trust back so we are scared to give red. Give red to scammers or get off DT.  It is no place for the weak or frail. Then entire board is left vulnerable if you fail in your responsibilities.

We are very pleased if what you say about theymos in this instance, is true ( we do trust the word of ognasty). We have been concerned that theymos had seemed to favor these types of dangerous persons over honest members who may kick up a fuss but for the right reasons.

Transparent and fair rules for all persons, so that all members are treated equally. Thats the only way to proceed with this movement.
