But when a user's feedback leaving is (1) clearly out of retaliatory, (2) clearly to hostage others to silent against him, (3) clearly based on inappropriate arguments, (4) clearly using it to scam others would you still add him in your trust network or you will tilde (~) him?
I am having a latent understanding of leaving a retaliatory feedback.
I can say that if someone leaves you a feedback, then because you also have the freedom to retaliate, it's fine and I have seen it severally.
But it will be more damaging to anyone leaving an untrue feedback in order to retaliate. I believe that
the more a user is leaving an untrue or frivolous feedback, the more his/her feedback value is reducing. It will get to an extent that your feedback will no longer carry weight, be you a DT1 or DT2.
Your feedback will certainly be meaningless if after reading your feedback, a user still do successful business with the person, managers still accept the user into campaigns and the user still offer services unaffected.
I believe that what should be 100% retaliatory is custom trust list. Like myself, I didn't know I was in someone's distrust list, but I was lucky to view from LoyceV thread. I simply excluded the person from my trust list aswell. For someone to distrust you without a genuine reason means that the person's judgment shouldn't be trusted aswell.
