Hi
Today when I joined the forum and went to check my profile to look at posts, I was surprised by negative points in the trust.
The posting that references negative trust, I posted a thought I have about what the topic title is.
say:
* the desire to get rich was the inceptive for people to use bitcoin
is reason for me to gain negative confidence (

or did I gain negative confidence because (*) had already been commented on in another post? if so, it's hard for me to know, because when I posted, there were 189 pages, and I did not read them all, but the few I read, I did not find.
Anyway, I m very sad!
First off, you have no "negative" points in your trust history, as the user who gave it is not a member of DT2+, which means it won't do anything to your score for most people viewing your profile.

Chances are indeed extremely high that what you've posted has already been said over and over and that you just remixed/rephrased someone else's post. Could be unintentionally aswell ofcourse..
But, i don't think that's the reason you got the trust rating, nor was it that post alone that did it, but rather the entirety of your post history being pretty low-quality non contributing posts. That was just a primal example.
