Even though theymos has a wise view regarding the trust system, but not all members can think like theymos.
These are two different things, from the eyes of two different classes of users. Theymos sees this forum from the eye of an owner and would do everything he can to keep here harmonious, not allowing anything that will unnecessarily drive away those who use this place while the rest of us are the users and we see it as a place of interaction, and most times a competition.
What theymos does is the same thing a business owner does with the way he handles his customers and tries to placate any unsatisfied one while the children of the business owner may not care much if aggrieved customers are pacified or not or they come back to patronize their businesses or not.
Anyway, OP, you better take these trust things patiently and not get too emotionally involved. I'm telling you from experience.
Users will continue to get agitated over tags as long as tags are used by campaign managers as a point of reference for enrollment in their campaigns.
