There's definitely more drama, and it involves more people now. Theymos wanted less retaliation, but I think it got worse. There's now DT-representation on local boards (which is good), but it often clashes when it reaches outside the local board. We've seen drama with "the Russians", and more recently "the Turkish": This thread was created yesterday, including an incorrect Flag. It's Opposed by people from many different countries, but Supported by 7 people from the same local board.

You are aware that suchmoon just put about 7 people on negative trust for supporting a flag against Timelord because s/he believes the flag was opened incorrectly, so s/he proceeded to threaten people to remove their support from the flag or otherwise remain neg. trusted indefinitely...

Do you really believe that's an untrustworthy offense, or is that a manipulative power play ?.. We now know you and suchmoon want to consolidate all decision making in the forum in the hands of your friends, what do other forum members think ?

what does theymos think ? I'm really just asking out of curiosity.

Can there be a worse case of retaliation and trust system abuse than putting people on negative trust for defending themselves, and then blackmailing them ?

This is arguably worse than the case of Timelord2067 because suchmoon is far smarter than Timelord2067 and is close friends with tens of DT1 members who would find it very hard to go against their friend, no matter how irrational and unfair her actions may be...
