....And scaring Newbies with trigger happy tagging makes Bitcointalk look very hostile.
It's a very fine line as to where keeping it not a disaster ends and hostile begins.
I have left negatives for some users, not as much as a I think I really should but it's a time thing.
I have also removed a couple when asked to, by the users. Not being willing to change is not a good thing. Allowing, scammers, shit posters, and people who are causing issues on the forum and not having repercussions is also not a good thing. As I said it's a fine line and easy to cross it. Personally, I would rather be on the too harsh but willing to forgive side. But, as I said I am also too busy to tag a lot so it's kind of moot for me.
