I also don't like leaving a positive for someone unless there's a damn good reason, and a wrongly-left negative--even though it's not right--doesn't rise to that level IMO.

This is the problem.. I completely disagree..

Negative ratings have MUCH more effect than positive ratings..
A single negative rating can have drastic consequences while even a handful of positives doesn't mean much..

Petty scams are nowhere near as much of a problem as is good users getting chased off the forum by bullshit negative feedback and surrounding drama..

I think some people just like to use the trust system too much period.. Users searching around ALL DAY trying to find reasons to leave ratings.. (mostly negative)

People aren’t perfect.. Y’all are way too harsh a lot of the time with the negatives..

Positive should be indicators of actually having done some sort of business/trade, risk or not.. Just having made successful trades is a good indicator that they aren’t here just trying to scam..

“Could scam” is about one of the most ridiculous things I read..

Do y’all not remember the ICO bubbles that happened around the last pump? And your so worried about petty scams?
What about the billions of dollars they scammed, and everyone is worried about $100 here and there..

It’s all so tiring (trust system drama), and this forum is so low IQ anymore from so many good users being chased away by neg tag fiends, just don’t know..

One thing this quote might have a point about, placing so much trust and control in the hands of 3rd world newb neg tag fiends might not be such a good idea..
Could be possible many DT care about their power and capacity to control others a lot more than they care about the principles of Bitcoin..

Really wonder about some people’s ultimate motives sometimes..
Why spend all day chasing a bunch of worthless alt accounts that are ripping off a scam ICO/IPO/spam campaign?
I don't get it.. It’s just enabling the scam that itself is to incompetent to keep from getting ripped off by the lowest IQ dregs in existence..
Sending a thousand negs to bottom of the barrel leeches makes one very trustworthy and worthy of a leadership roll somehow though..

Counter ratings?
Who cares.. Have fun playing the game..
