LoyceV add this: show the raw Trust list for blacklisted users, this shouldn't be a loophole to hide their Trust list from my viewer!

This is done

I don't mind someone spamming his own Trust list, as long as he doesn't pollute the rest.
~DefaultTrust's Trust list now looks like this:

Couldn't the forum software disallow the creation of usernames with such character, at least minimally as the first character? Anyone know?

I know it got more restricted at some point, some older usernames have much weirder characters than "~" in them. It's a pain to deal with, but since the username is used to login, it can't just be changed either.
For new usernames, I think ~ just slipped through. But there's not really a problem, I just tested it, and adding "~DefaultTrust" to your Trust list means excluding DefaultTrust, and doesn't mean including ~DefaultTrust.
To exclude ~DefaultTrust, use:

Code:

~~DefaultTrust

The only reason I haven't excluded him yet is because he's not important enough. I don't think he'll ever reach DT2, so his Trust list abuse is not a problem.
