Can you please explain to me how it is "wrong"? Why would you be called a scammer by default?
Trust ratings are open... comments and references are publicly displayed so people can read and understand why particular ratings have been left.
As
I understand it... Red Trust does not automatically equal "scammer". If
you choose to interpret red trust that way, that's your prerogative, but that's not
my understanding of what it means.
What you are saying is that I should always agree with DT members otherwise I could get tagged by any of them at any given time. that is per-definition bullshit, pardon my language.
Suchmoon first tagged me with a bullshit excuse, that is a personal use of his DT power, in his first tag on me there is no mention of
- Offering a questionable service in a self-moderated thread
- Claiming abilities that you don't possess
- Lacking any trade history
- Providing one vouch/reference - yourself
- Requesting upfront payment without escrow
- Admitting that you will abscond with the money if you don't succeed
That could only mean that he used his DT power as a personal tool of bullying, then he tagged me the second time, now tell me, why should I be called a scammer if I have asked for money in exchange for my time? if I'm not a lawyer, who made him a judge? whoever made him a judge should also care about his actions.
Now this one from marlboroza:
This user continues to spread lies, harassing forum members, DT and moderators/stuff, running very shady law practice service which consist of trolling DT members and spreading lies all over the forum.
Why would he care if I'm spreading lies and trolling? who is he to damage my reputation and paint me red by default? where are the lies and trolling? moreover, you should report me if you see me trolling, if after reporting, no moderator actions were taken, tagging me is equal to deciding for moderators, that means marlboroza didn't like it when mods didn't delete my trolling posts and he decided to take the matters into his own hands and tag me red.
If what I'm saying is not sweet for DT members, tagging me by them is per-definition abuse of power, because they didn't like what I was saying. so they decided to tag me red instead.
Now actmyname:
Wanted to charge people to remove red tags.
I have absolutely no power in this forum. all I did was suggesting/hinting for DT members to tell them that we shouldn't be allowed to be the only ones capable of removing the tags, there should be a protocol to prevent any possible abuse of power. for instance: if you could only buy a copper membership by paying to a designated address, there will be a record for your transaction and you'd have a TXID to back your claim of payment.
But now with DT members, it would be like giving them access to whitelist members to have the perks of a copper member without them actually paying. but if there is a standard protocol to follow, we could remove the red tags conditionally without giving DT members any chance of abusing their power for personal gains.
How would you know if marlboroza didn't ask for money to change his first tag on me? you don't and I could set him up easily just to get back at him, doing that would only cause more unwanted discussions. but if there was a system where I could for example report some garbage posts and only then my red tag could be removed, we could have eliminated all the possible ways for colluding and for any personal use of DT power.
My man, if I have weak command of English, and am unable to express my opinions perfectly, please don't take it on me by tagging me. I have no intention of scamming or stealing money from anybody here. this is again me repeating myself. this is why I would say that they are harassing me with their DT power. I have already explained myself here:
