So my question is if it is allowed to tag a person just because you don't like him? Is it allowed to tag someone because of your vendetta or something?

It's not forbidden, but it's not really the best thing to do (unless you like dramas).
The best answer is given here in the LoyceV guide :

Be the bigger man!
With great power comes great responsibility (source unknown). Especially when you're on DefaultTrust (or if you want to be on DefaultTrust in the future), you shouldn't (ab)use that power by leaving (negative) feedback when someone does something you don't like. Your Sent feedback is what others use to judge your judgement.
If someone on the internet is mean to you: boo fucking hoo! Use the Ignore button, and forget about them.

So closing the scam threads on early stages or forcing suspicious projects to escrow investments can save a lot of people a lot of money and maybe someone's life as well.

Mods are not perfect judges (no one is perfect). If you meet a stranger on the street and he asks you for 100$ and tells you he will give you 200$ back tomorrow, will you blindly give him the 100$ ? It's the same thing here, and just because it's a crypto-thing doesn't mean you have to give your money away without doing a few basic verifications.

See the dirty turds thread in meta although there are many updates that should be added to keep it current.

loyceV is a scammer protector. He deliberately deleted a post requesting flag support even when the flag was based on independently verifiable evidence of scamming that is undeniable.
Besides that he is a moron. I would take any guide that snake makes and examine it very closely before following it.

Dont be fooled by high cycled merit scores and DT1 membership.
Well these are usually signs of corrupt self serving weasels and they'll be wearing chipmixer or other highly paid sigs.

There is no rules for red tags now since the flag system.
But even those trust abused under the old system get to have their abuse magnified and grandfathered into the dumb design..
If you need clarity or evidence just ask.
It's a shit show and highly dangerous.

The latest one is.... you can be given a tag for publically responding to a tagged person.
Even if you were stating the verifiable truth.

Some of the mods are as bad as DT and on the same sigs payrolls.

Theymos himself? Who knows. I think he just doesnt care honestly.
Maybe he thinks I've tried to design a trust system I'm not messing around with it anymore let the kids fight it out.
Problem is merit and trust killed the forum.
Many elder members are not happy with the trust or merit system but are rich so cant be bothered to help fix the forum that made them wealthy. They are also to blame. Theymos good or bad? Who knows. He seems weird to me I actually believe he knows very little about the forum or its members. He sticks to his meta circle of sycophants who dont care about bct only milking it but he thinks they are his pals so let's them run riot over other less greedy real enthusiasts for the movement.
I mean he designed this mess but just washes his hands of it.

I mean sure he could be a lot worse. But could be a lot better too.
I like cobra more mostly because he recognized real bad guys when he saw them.
Theymos just thinks everyone is good deep down but then hates any criticism of his designs.
He is used to everyone kissing his ass and lost the ability to discern sneaky greedy scum from noisy but decent people who want to see satoshis principles followed thoroughly.
Gmax can be a bit rude but he is straight and simply follows logic and reason.
A bit machine like but consistent and will give transparent open explanation to his opinions.
He should have helped theymos design something more sensible for bct control systems.

Red tags = scammer, setting up a scam, attempting to scam or posing a direct financial danger to members.

Anything else is trust abuse.

I would also red tag people for promulgating as true conclusively debunked information repeatedly after being warned.
That is trolling at the highest level.

I mean there are no other people aside from DT mods admin and special characters that can get things changed for the better.
Discussing what is permitted and not generally is a waste of time but is good for historical purposes and a cathartic release

The greedy and driven generally are not easy to defeat entirely but it's fun to bitch slap them around in public so they can run and hide or be picked apart for the objective witness to observe. Slimy weasels.

So yes in theory it is okay because other DT will not do anything for red tags for any reason.
Even under the old system a.mod of 6yrs said to a real legend here that it was okay for them to be tagged if they said they liked lemons.
What did theymos say? Nothing ... but told the abused real legend to shut up moaning the boring long winded bastard.
That legend made us all super wealthy and smashed the biggest scams here.

Lol.
