Re: Thread locked I owe it to aew. JollyGood and his Feedback
Why didn't you add starmyc to your Trust list? His feedback seems reasonable, and that would mean he'd be on DT2 when you're on DT1, and would even the playing field a bit:
I did not look into it that way but gave a thought for few second. I am still not convinced that if I should do it. If I do then it feels like I am changing my setting only for a particular user. On the other hand starmyc is not someone who left many feedback and I can consider the judgement of most of his feedback are accurate. I will give more thought before to take your suggestion. A major goal of this is to allow retaliatory distrusts and ratings to actually have some chance of mattering so that contentious ratings have an actual cost.

The point is that it's more accurate 
There is an after and before question now since he sent me a retaliatory feedback. 🤣When I remove my old feedback then technically he will say I sent him the retaliatory feedback because my one will come later. I am thinking a way how to correct it and also use appropriate reference for starmyc case too.

In my opinion, Lauda was too trigger happy on the red paint, and JollyGood goes down the same path. I especially dislike that this scares off good users, while real scammers will just continue with a new account.
Lauda's feedback were never thought me to keep hostage the user but some of JollyGood's feedback feels to me that he use his negative feedback to hostage others. May be it's because Lauda was not disrespectful in their interaction with others.Quote
but gave up after it seemed futile.
He is using it in his favor. It surprise me why some of the users who consider him a good scam buster (which he was long ago, he changed), do not take their time to recheck the change.Quote
stopped trusting my judgement
He tilde (~) everyone who does not speak his language. It has nothing to do with the judgement we use for feedback leaving for others. I checked JollyGood's feedback on starmyc, and I'm surprised he tagged the user saying:
Like I said on my last post an employer thinks that they bought the freelancer and use them as their own property. JollyGood was demanding unnecessary additional job resulting not paying him for the 2nd job but inappropriately he was asking to refund for the first job that was done successfully. He was simply denying to pay for the valid job.Quote
When I asked for the source code he declined asking for more money. If I did not get the source code I would have to go back to him for every small tweak I wanted to make and therefore he would ask for more money again and again.
Meanwhile, his own Reference link shows he didn't ask for source codes, and I think it's unreasonable to expect free source codes after you pay someone for a freelance job.Let me share the last PM from starmyc
Hello,
Indeed, I'm no longer in the freelancing business anymore, and my current work is too busy and keeps me away all this stuff.
Also, the amount was really small so (I don't remember the precise amout, but it was like < 200$ in btc)... as this story is old, and I'm out of business, I've no longer any interest about recovering this small amount of money.
I'm sad because I spent quite some time to work on this stuff at the time and all I got is this bad reputation stuff.
But well, that's life and there are more important things to deal with.
Have a nice day anyway!
