BTW Hhampuz, I glanced at your trust ratings and I also think it is OK to leave positive trust for someone who won an auction and paid promptly. After all, their bid is a pledge and prompt payment shows that they honor their pledge to you.

I am of the opinion that a positive or negative rating should be based on a direct interaction with a user. If some one purchases an item from me for example I will usually leave them a positive rating with some kind of description of what the trade involved so people reviewing ratings can weigh it appropriately. A regular history of being able to afford purchases and complete exchanges without incident has value too. Now if you see a user with tons of tiny trades will then you can see that the number of ratings themselves mean less than at first glance. This all comes back to teaching users to do due diligence, not just trust red and green numbers blindly.
However, if you want people to do their due diligence, then a neutral rating will let them know the same thing without making it appear at first blush that the person is more trusted than God.

If they sent you the funds first and you waited for the appropriate confirmations, then it really didn't require any trust on your part. A neutral is more appropriate. If you provided the goods and services first, and then they paid you upon receipt or completion, a positive would be appropriate. IMHO
That's what I'm thinking too. I've not sent anything first for 2 years so I'm never really put in a position where I have to trust the other party. You may want to also leave positive trust if they paid you by reversible means such as paypal or wire transfer. Not right away, however...

No exceptions for account dealers is one thing, but I also recall saying that I wasn't going to start tagging escrows who facilitate account sales. I'm only speaking for myself here--it's an area that I'm sure some folks don't agree with. I certainly don't approve of helping account dealers, but tagging an escrow is going too far IMO.
We did discuss all of this before, OP. I'm 99.5% sure I wrote essentially the same thing around the time that I wrote the quote you provided. I'd still be interested to hear others' opinions on the matter. We do have a lot more DT members, and they might feel differently. I don't have a monopoly on hard feelings toward account buyers/sellers.
TBH, I'm not certain of how escrow works. In such a case, does the escrow agent have to be privy to the fact that what is being exchanged is an account? Or do they just receive the bitcoin and when the other party says it's OK to release the funds, they do so, no questions asked.

What do you want me to do ?Post a screenshot ? LOL
It would take you 5 sec to send a PM to them asking if i offered them access to my account to proof my claims.
Sure post the screenshot. I'm reasonably certain you wouldn't dare post a doctored screenshot showing theymos as the author. Now would you? If you did, that would be the ultimate in stupid.

You proofed you are pathetic.
Demanding from me proof from a Mod or Admin only that the screenshots are legit to remove the red tagg and accepting at the same time a newbie account claim as proof somewhere else.
You just proofed you are horseshit.
Thule, let's get down to the bottom line. I strongly believe that you made up that screenshot of suchmoon. You are all motive and no alibi. Did i offered theymos and mrep to check if the screenshots are legit and to go after the IP ? Also theymos clearly said for what the trust system should be used and he clearly stated that something like that is an abuse of the trust system in his opinion. You haven't presented any evidence that this conversation actually happened with theymos or mprep. I'm not going to just take your word for it.

bones i guess everyone can clearly see how pathetic you are.
I consider you calling me pathetic is actually a strong endorsement of my character. Also, I have already explained myself. I am not omniscient or omnipresent. Nor am I required to issue red trust for every single infraction that I come across.
To clarify the second sentence. I am not required to thoroughly examine every single case that I come across to determine if it merits a red tag.

Thule, so far in your case, we don't have any account coming forward to verify your screenshots. Only more screenshots. However, it appears that volodia2 isn't happy with you either. At least that is the story that you are trying to convey, today. Also, I am not omniscient or omnipresent. Nor am I required to issue red trust for every single infraction that I come across.

If anyone cares to check how accurate my Rank up pipeline was, these were the candidates (last Saturday): Just eyeballing since I can't do a quick diff on differently sorted lists but it looks like these users didn't get in, most likely due to inactivity: 36. Zepher (81 Merit earned) is included by 12 users with 250+ earned Merit and 20 users with 10-249 earned Merit. 53. JohnUser (DT1! (1) 205 Merit earned) is included by 6 users with 250+ earned Merit and 11 users with 10-249 earned Merit. 55. BadBear (5 Merit earned) is included by 6 users with 250+ earned Merit and 14 users with 10-249 earned Merit. 62. Tomatocage (171 Merit earned) is included by 5 users with 250+ earned Merit and 18 users with 10-249 earned Merit. 63. TookDk (15 Merit earned) is included by 4 users with 250+ earned Merit and 9 users with 10-249 earned Merit. 68. hedgy73 (40 Merit earned) is included by 4 users with 250+ earned Merit and 10 users with 10-249 earned Merit. 70. malevolent (25 Merit earned) is included by 4 users with 250+ earned Merit and 6 users with 10-249 earned Merit. 73. monbux (18 Merit earned) is included by 3 users with 250+ earned Merit and 12 users with 10-249 earned Merit.

Hmm, First of all, you bring up a thread that I neither posted in nor gave out any merit. How do you know that I somehow "participated" in that thread? Also, I looked through my recent post history, and can't find any of these threads that you claim that I participated in. As usual, you are just making things up hoping to get one of your red trust remarks removed.

as long as lemons and kiwifruits do not need a hat all is fine Their is no exemption for lemons and kiwifruits. It is mandatory that everyone proceed to the WO thread and request a hat. Anyone caught not wearing a hat will be subjected to the extreme punishment of me rolling my eyes when I read your posts.

Even here you are admitting your involvement in ponzi and still you think marlboroza left red trust by accident?
Instead of making this thread you should have convinced marlboroza to remove the red trust by assuring him you will not get involved in ponzi. But you made this thread and welcomed 4 more red trusts by TMAN, suchmoon, Vod and bones261. Now you have to convince 5 red painters to get out of the red painting... You made the case much difficult for yourself...
Hey, I also left him a link to a Britney Spears video. She was smoking hot when she was young. And she's dancing around in a red catsuit. A Purrfect gift.
