Every lender has the right to put his/her/their terms. It's up to them if the no collateral loan is worth the risk of getting scammed, rather than trust-farming (what I believe you are suggesting here).
Right, lenders have the right to lend on their own terms as they wish.

The point I was making is that the OPs loan request is not automatically a scam attempt on its face. If someone lends to him, the OP may not repay the loan. But it is not a foregone conclusion that he will run away with whatever money he receives.

Thought you were talking about Darkstar there for given no collateral loans :/

Potential lenders can choose to ignore my neg. As a DT member it’s my job to warn others about potentially shady users. This loan request is imo untrustworthy.
I haven’t done a flag.

Agreed, potential lenders can ignore the whole trading/trust history, but I don't think being part of DT forces you to go around the forum as a "vigilante" tagging possible scams. Examples:


This is 99.9% scam and should be tagged as so:
Hello, and sorry for bothering you all.

I need money to make a surgery I don't know what should I do, I believe that maybe no one will believing me but I am honest and will return the money
in time with profit if this is not urgently I will not ask. I will work to give the money back  this is the last place I can go to get a loan because no one

will give me money.

Thanks

This may be a scam, but it's reasonable enough to consider it.

In the event of tagging it, a neutral tag stating your thought would be more appropriate here (in my opinion), because like Darkstar says, this is rather "borderline"
