@Ratimov: feel free to retaliate, that seems to be your thing. Just know that the users who excluded me are not exactly the most upstanding citizens of Bitcointalk. You'll be in terrible company:
It's true and this part made me laugh when I was reading it. But it sounds like you are threatening him not to do that.
For the record: it wasn't meant to be a threat. More like a warning of how it makes him look.
This still applies (both for GazetaBitcoin as well as for Ratimov):
My take: both of you should remove the negative feedback. If I would loan either one of you $100, I'm pretty sure you wouldn't scam me. That's what the Trust system is for, and that means negative feedback is unwarranted.
You guys don't like each other: that's okay! Agree to disagree. Ignore each other. Or get a beer together. Find common ground instead of drama.
@GazetaBitcoin: go for neutral! Ratimov is off DT1, isn't it time to de-escalate further?
we know LoyceV's weight.
Lol.
Maybe I should have done it earlier, but I'm not a supporter of crucifying and expelling someone from the forum. I expected a different epilogue.
I feel the same. I like to be sure enough so I don't have to change feedback or Trust list entries any time soon again.
I think he "played his card wrong", majority of the DTs were ready to refrain from taking action, understand [probably hoping] that he'll learn from his past mistakes. His recent retaliatory backfired.
When it comes to Trust inclusions, I've accepted that I can't and don't have to agree with everything. But if the number of actions I don't agree with keeps increasing, eventually the scale tips to the other side. I think it's a good thing more DT-members are like that. There's no need to rush decisions based on incidents.
I believe that majority of DT users were intimidated by the possibility they'll be excluded by him as well
There are others reasons not to rush to exclude anyone.
Seems, I am into the game where I don't know the rules well. I added him into my trust list because he helped me two or three times to rank up
That sounds a lot like buying your vote. Luckily, since
nobody trusts your judgement, it doesn't matter much. You should probably read
my Beginners guide to correct use of the Trust system (I know I'm the third person mentioning that now) though, so you include users for the right reasons.
