This is clear abuse of the trust system and exactly why default trust is BAD. Very Bad. As the title infers.
I never asked him to trust me. I never asked anyone to trust me. If you could legitimately be awarded negative trust for personal opinions we should all be at -1000 by now.
Anybody wanna step up and interject here? It would be appreciated. MsCollec seems to think he/she should just be able to leave people negative trust for any ol' reason. It sort of defeats the purpose of the system, wouldn't you agree?
You got it the other way around, I fear.
Anyone (User A) should leave any trust he wants to anybody (User B).
BUT there shouldn't be a Default Trust, so that unless someone User C specifically wants to trust User A, User B's rank for him will be unaffected.
That's how you build a working system.
The current one is dumb.
