Re: Remove red trust, it is nothing but noise. Getting sickening to watch.

If someone does not have victims to repay (or has repaid their victims), and have not repeated previous mistakes, why brand them for life? If branded for life, what incentives do they have to not repeat previous mistakes, or to further escalate a dispute with a person?
The specific cases I am refering to fall clearly into the first category. There is a long and detailed history of these members demonstrating both their sure belief the other is a dangerous scammer, and objective evidence that presents a strong case to support their assertions. There are long detailed history of quickseller stating lauda has attempted to extort, conducted dishonest escrowing on a large scale, and lauda has been certain quickseller is a dangerous self escrowing scammer, and claims he could not trust him as far as he could throw him. Owlcatz has said the same for years. The same with owlcatz has been certain OGnasty is a scammer and visa versa. Now requesting OGnasty remove his red tags because he has decided to forgive OGnasty for being a dangerous scammer.
Perhaps some of what you describe was petty fighting among all involved, and some was involving things that happened long enough ago that it is appropriate to forgive past transgressions.

Redacting a selection of his extortion case thread and removing the names of owlcatz after years.
I am curious how many people would be aware of these types of changes to a thread, and out of those who would be aware, who would want to complain about something like this. ARE you curious? I would speculate perhaps those that pay attention, and don't like to see members retract/redact evidence of purported financially dangerous behaviors in return for their own red tags being removed.
Please be specific. Are you claiming that because an extortion attempt or scam fails and there are no persons to financially reimburse that no warning should be applied to their account if they remove a warning they have placed on your account(s) ?
That the entire purpose of the trust system is not to provide warning and increase the safety of the wider community against scammers, rather it is to ensure that those with red tags get along working nicely with one another and have more fun?
What incentive is there for senior accounts not to scam if a period of good behavior will result in a clean sheet. Or if you can simply act as a group to throw red around until you force others to remove their red on you?
What incentive is there to speak the truth or present evidence of wrong doing if I will have my account flagged red for doing so. Then I may have to react it all and pretend it was all a big mistake and I promise never to do it again.
Do you perhaps have a good argument to retain red tags? or should we move to a fully objective system like the flags? best ask lauda first to check what you are permitted to say. I don't wish to see redacted posts here or suffer more of you begging forgiveness and promises not to repeat telling the truth ever again.
