Bitcoin Forum

Someone (now inactive) gave me a negative trust for nothing, how do i solve this?

Try saying it to the moderators. Probably they can make something.

only thymos can remove negative trust i think, even mod can't do anything

same situation for me, two idiot give me random negative and they are now inactive...

...just leave it there, it didn't change anything in your trust

You don't have any trusted negative feedback. Just two neutral ones so it doesn't really matter but you'll have to either live with it or try persuade those who left you it to remove them (which they probably wont).


Staff don't remove or moderate feedback.

If they are inactive it is a bad deal since you will be stuck with it.  It's really meant for you to get with other person and find a resolution.

But if they randomly gave you one not much you can do.  The only thing I see is it looks like two of them are because you left them negative trust.  Sadly right or wrong if you leave a negative there is a decent chance other person will do same to you.

But since not in default trust you don't show up bad is the good thing.

I got an untrusted negative trust from some scammer when I called him out that he has made a bitcointalk account using the name of a trusted localbitcoins user. 
I was told at the time by tomatocage that it doesn't matter, as long as they are untrusted no one will see it and no one will care.

That seems to be true too, though I don't trade very often so maybe for someone who does it would. 

Shouldn't this be in Meta?

If you got a negative feedback by a moderator, its best to just abandon the account since it wont be able to be removed.

You learned your lesson, the thing is nothing is showing me anything that you got a negative feedback.

Its the "Trusted" ones you should worry about, esp with +16 green reps or higher.

For the beginners reading this.  My biggest suggestion is don't go straight to the loan forum.  I have seen a lot of bad feedback for new people who go asking for a loan.

Also don't get in forum battles with people.  It is a waste of your time, and ultimately chances are a negative feedback.

Are you sure? I have seen a lot of people have been removed from the default trust list due their (left) negative trusts and you are saying that the trust system is not moderated (I think it is no-sense) but I accept your opinion.

It's not the same removing someone from the default trust list than deleting a feedback left by someone. If somebody is removed his feedback is still available whenever he left it, it's just not trusted by default.

Besides anyone from default trust level 1 can add or remove users (level 2). That's how the system works and that's not moderation.
Some people have been removed from level one and that's more difficult to happen but still it's not the same as moderating the trust system.
