The thing most people missing here is, trust works in layers. Like a pyramid.

At the top of the pyramid, there are common scums like hyip/ponzi promoters, people who say that they can crack the genesis block, bsv promoters etc. These are obviously scammers and there are no problems with the negative trust ratings you leave on them. [Layer 1]

Then there are account sellers and account farmers. These belong to the layer 2 on the pyramid. These are getting negative trust ratings too. Do you know why they are getting tagged? It is because they are enabling the upper layer of scammers. I am sure nobody here is arguing against this. [Layer 2]

Now, here is layer 3 scammers... Bottom of the pyramid. Trust abusers, criminal lawyers. People who game the trust system. (Are you starting to see pictures or should I draw one?) These people, enable the upper layer of scammers and their trust lists do matter. The upper layer of scammers take their power from users that belong to this layer. [Layer 3, Deep layer]

Now, why it is appropriate to tag an account seller but not a trust abuser? An account seller can be trusted as long as he delivers what he promises. If you ask him, he'll tell you that he is doing an honest job!! Both the buyer and the seller are happy. The buyer gets his account, the seller gets his money, who are you to tag both of these people? He didn't scam anybody on paper!

If you are tagging account sellers&farmers, why is there a problem with tagging a trust abuser?
