What do I do with a user like this? (Trust Abuse - Retaliation form Dorrittulx)

[Jude Austin]

I have been in an issue with the user "Dorrittulx" for around 24 hours now. BayAreaCoins and Zeroxal have also witnessed his immaturity and childishness throughout this period of time.

Here are the 3 trust ratings I left him in the past 24 hours, all REFERENCED and VALID:



Here are the 4 trust ratings he has left me with NO evidence, NO proof, and COMPLETELY false.



As you can see no reference links, simply retaliation to the legitimate claims I have bought upon him.

How would one deal with a user like this? Obviously while his feedback is 'untrusted', it is still there and still a view on my profile.

If any DT could go and look at his 'bid retracting' situation you will see that he has placed a bid and failed to follow through, a clear violation of the marketplace.

OP, you're more senior than I am by far so I don't think I can tell you anything you don't know.  You know feedback can only be removed by whoever posts it, and retaliatory feedback often will just stay there.  It's unfortunate.  If you look at my feedback, all of the negatives are from assholes who didn't like something I said, usually when they're called out on some BS.  There are no references and it sounds like stuff you'd see written in a Sharpie on a bathroom stall.  This is a huge part of the trust system here that I can't stand, and I'm sure you can see why.

Obviously while his feedback is 'untrusted', it is still there and still a view on my profile.

So what?  You are a +10 and he is a -2.  Trust is not moderated so there is nothing you can do but live with it.  Not like it will affect you in any way.

There is no such thing as a "valid" or "invalid" trust rating, only trust ratings from people who others will take seriously and only ratings that others will listen to individually.

You will need to work out any issues with trust ratings left by that person with him directly. You can try to open a thread about his ratings he left you (eg this thread) to allow the community to discuss his ratings, however he doesn't appear to have significant amounts of reputation so it may not be as effective as it would be for someone with a positive reputation.
