No it's not possible. That feedback is to warn others that the member was a proven scammer before the transition to the current trust system. (Issued by a administrator controlled account)

What if i bought the account? will they remove it? Nope not even then. The problem is that account sales can be faked, so that would again mean that the scammer could essentially just sell the account to himself.

I can provide proof, pm's can be showm, ip addresses can be checked and they can also check for any prior interaction between the addresses and the forum ip addresses

But even then no one believes a word I say.

What if i bought the account? will they remove it? Why would you buy an account that has red rep? Well, probably because of the lower price for a (I assume) high ranking account, with the expectation of being able to remove the negative trust.

Well, probably because of the lower price for a (I assume) high ranking account, with the expectation of being able to remove the negative trust. Amazing thinking. Like buying a passport of a wanted fugitive, and petitioning the passport office to resend the warrants because it's a bought passport. @Twipple: You mean the guy who sold you your bitcointalk account wasn't on the up and up? Dishonest account merchant? Who's left to trust??? Hey, why don't you leave him a negative trust rating, to warn other righteous account buyers?

Basically I had a scam accusation regarding something against him, later I bought an account from him(through my alt). And first, he sent a message begging to someone, before selling it to me (for which he has a negative trust) . Second is a bit complicated to explain, so I am going to skip it.
