How can we view the results or is it just admins?
Must be, oops. Looks like any other poll to me.

Sweet a bunch of new posts, there should be lots of good discussion about replacing defaulttru...oh. Good job guys.

Many abuse signature campaigns. I see accounts writing 2-3 line comments that on superficial inspection seem to be fine but actually show the poster has not even read the thread and/or understands the subject.
This is one of the things I look for, but it can be hard to spot just from looking at a post history, usually requires reading or participating in the thread they post in. You should report it.

I removed my negative because redsn0w said he would no longer act as escrow, so I didn't see it as necessary. I have seen reports/posts that this is not the case, but haven't had time to look into it.

I've actually been adding more people lately, I think default trust should have more and a wider variety of people, and more people deserve a chance, and it should be more indicative of the community (though still needs to be accurate). I used to add people regularly but it kept falling off the to do list. Issues will arise but they're easy enough to solve.
I do think we need to move away from default trust though. Yeah some will be lazy and just use the suggestions and forget about it, but no getting around that.

Maybe he should receive a second chance
the things he did is worth a ban ofcourse,but if he is willing to make a promise that he wont do it maybe you should thing about that moderators,he is also a high rank,you should still think about that as well.
well thats my opinion!!
This will probably show my age, but this reminds me of a scene from...well I'll just link to it. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E88HEuwInno

Actually he wouldn't since he isn't in the top 30. I'd expect the list to change fairly dramatically once people need to make their own lists instead of relying on default trust though. I like it. Most people aren't going to stop using default until they have to. The only problem I see with this system is the top xx people will continue to gain more trust and will pull ahead of the rest of the users. You're basically replacing the DefaultTrust with those people.
Only if they stay on their lists, and if they do stay on it, then they deserve it don't they?

the trader system does Need some sort of support.
It does, takes time though. We like to see people resolve this stuff themselves, and more often than not they do.

that dosent happen to me usually,so im appealing to moderators to please remove my ban i will be more carefull in the future
Just wait 30 days and you'll have your second (or third, as Quickseller points out) chance. please remove it i have to pay a loan with my signature money back...so im asking you nicely that this wont happen again,please be friendly please I don't believe you. A previous 14 day ban wasn't enough to ensure it wouldn't happen again. If it were your first I might be more accommodating. Your ban won't be lifted.

What was the reason for the ban? I believe bans usually say why you are banned. I would think it would be because you were making a lot of short, insubstantial (aka shit posts) in short succession. I counted 8 of these posts just today and the last two pages of your post history appear to be mostly one liners and loan requests.
yes i forgot that they have to be a little longer,so i didnt see that they were so short that dosent happen to me usually,so im appealing to moderators to please remove my ban i will be more carefull in the futureYes it does, second ban for it.

It's probably something much more innocuous, like a thread for testing thread deletion and logging of those options. Truth is often the boring explanation.
Deleted posts weren't archived til later, no backups from that point exist that I know of, and theymos wasn't an admin at the time.

Even if multiple accounts were against the rules, it would be more effective to not enforce it through those methods. Users will find ways around it and then it becomes harder to figure out who is who later on. Much better to let users get sloppy by not giving them any restrictions to get around.
Somebody gets it.

Yes all else aside, it was pretty funny. Would pop up a dialog box with a progress meter that said it was converting your bitcoins to cosbycoins.

There is no problem with his account but I believe it is locked to stop attempted hackings. Satoshi could get it back if he wished by proving some decent evidence that it is infact him (pgp key, signing a message from known addresses etc).
Yeah it is.

Really? $350,000 for this forum? That sounds like too much. And isn't vBulletin normally considered to be the best forum software? Although my information might be out of date. And I don't think vBulletin is open source either.
It's not "just" for this forum, it could be a competitor to all the other forums. If they do it right, it could be quite a boon for bitcoin.

I told I don't have an answer - not " I didn't want to repay it everything went wrong".
People need to have faith in you, first and foremost. Your answer should always be, yes I will cover any losses incurred with my escrow service. Any answer other than that and you shouldn't be running an escrow service, and that's the reason you got the reaction you've gotten. Now I know it was my mistake , the thing that *I still didn't know* is : who did all this epic trolling.
It doesn't matter whose mistake it was, what matters is that it was your responsibility. Your first duty is to your customers, not finding out who made you look bad. Yeah you got trolled, but it's your (in)actions people have a problem with. The issue wasn't with the mistake, it was the way you handled it after the fact. As for who, who knows. I'm not going to reveal specifics about pms I've seen in reports here, but I will say it's not wise to taunt scammers when you leave them negative feedback. It's disrespectful, and a good way to make enemies. Every 30 min I refresh this page https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=mlist;sort=registered;start=0;desc and if I see someone trying to make as impostor I leave them negative feedback. Maybe someone of them has tried to ruin my reputation but is wrong to leave them a negative feedback ? They surely tried ( trying) to scam the other users with their impostor nicknames. ... I highly doubt that, how would a third party know the made up address?
I didn't remember if the email was public or hide , but surely the troll have seen it from the ultimate quote in the moreia's loan thread. So I think it was public. Why do you not read what people are saying to you? I didn't say it's wrong to leave them negative feedback (look at my sent feedback), I said it's dumb to send them pms taunting them about it.

I've unbanned the account.

|

Well, what I do know.
IPs during the incident, after the loan, were different (Tor). moreia_alt's IPs do match moreia's. Whoever is logged into moreia's account currently is also using Tor (odd).
I'll leave the speculating for others.

redsn0w, you shouldn't sign messages with simple vague phrases like I'm redsn0w, anyone can copy that and use it at any point in the future to pretend they are you. Particularly bad in this instance since it's a vanity address. You should include something unique to the situation you are signing the message for, such as today's date at least.
