He's not banned (AFAIK), I just don't trust him personally.
Why everyone else here seems to think it's their business whom I decide to trust, I don't know...
I just think you gave him that negative rating because you didn't get one of the awesome deals.
If you don't trust anyone, it doesn't mean you have to give him a negative rating. Just avoid him. If he scams you then that leaving the rating would be understandable.
He gave him the negative rating because he does not trust him. Anyone can give anyone positive trust if for whatever reason you trust the person, and you can give negative trust if you do not trust them.
There was also a link the luke-jr posted of a transcript of an IRC chat when he was offered to let luke-jr double a .01 payment if luke would send .01 to bipolarbob first, luke declined because this is something that a scammer would do even if he has come through prior times.
I'm just going to be flat out honest with you guys.
Bob's sent me probably more than 1 BTC in the past, for no reason; sometimess he'd randomly message me offering me BTC, or I'd send him a message asking him for a few mBTC for whatever reason, he hasn't sent me anything in a few weeks, but he's sent me plenty in the past. The most he's ever sent me at a time was .2 and he's sent me BTC quite a few times, so I'm sure it's been more than 1.
So unless you guys are going to say/think that Bob is a wallet hacker too, you should just disregard every negative thought you have about him because he really is
just a nice, generous guyHe completely deserves the positive trust I gave him, as well as the ton of it a bunch of other users did too.
