it doesn't appear that Mabsark is abusing his trust. Highly respected members of the forum have looked at this issue and provided their opinions on a different thread. If this isn't the case and it can shown and agreed by mods that he is abusing then go ahead and show that. I haven't seen abuse in this case. What I have seen is potential scammers getting pissed that they got stopped dead in their tracks.
Looking at this statement again, and looking at the trust feedback you left for Mabsark, I see a big problem here. You are 100% correct that
potential scammers will be stopped. However just because someone is a potential scammer does not mean they are actually scamming or actually trying to scam.
What this almost always means is that people who are competing with both you and ASICminer are stopped dead in their tracks. This is exactly what is happening in this case. You (via someone you have on your trust list) are receiving a competitive advantage for what both you and your business partner are selling.
I would also ask you what percentage of your trust feedback is not on anyone else's trust list that is on default trust? Is it 90%? Is it 95%? 99%? I would ask the same about friedcat
