And while talking about holding 0.1BTC for 10 months this gets posted:

Oh no I've been made an example of.  Tongue

I wouldn't be against a system directly realated to trading, but worry it would make what has become a somewhat complex system for people to wrap their heads around harder to understand. I originally opposed using feedback for the "great guy" " asset to the forum" and various other pat on the back positive ratings people received, not near as much as I opposed the negative "personal" feedbacks people would leave. I've always been a big fan of Neutral, and am glad to see it has a placeholder now for it's tallies. That's where I think all of the non trade related account notes belong.

Your system could be implemented into the current system with the same penalties, though the forum tends to shy away from punitive measures until absolutely necessary. The wording has changed where it is more open to opinion, but it should still center around a solid belief on facts what side of likely to scam they fall on. Personally I'm okay with seeing where things fall, but guidelines for the old system like the ones given for the new system would be refreshing. Might help force people to end squabbling over minute issues or personal grievances they use to grasp at straws to label people in a negative light.

Positive - You think that this person is unlikely to scam anyone.
    Neutral - Other comments.
    Negative - You think that trading with this person is high-risk. You might also be able to add a flag.
