We also all know the saying "The definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over again, but expecting different results."
I know that definition quite well, and I try to keep it in mind in my real life and on bitcointalk, which is why I have most of the troll posse on ignore and have been trying not to engage in all of this drama--and Vod's drama here is definitely not my own. However, I think he's doing the right thing by backing off from the insanity, which really doesn't need to be escalated any further.
I'm getting shit about some of the positive trusts I've left and for having bill gator in my trust list. All I can say is that I'll have to agree to disagree with anyone who criticizes me about that stuff--unless the situation changes, of course, in which case I will happily re-evaluate my ratings and trust list. Anyway, there's too much fighting and drama between both trusted and untrusted members, and it's tiresome. I don't want to fight anymore, and I'm pretty sure Vod doesn't want to either.
You have lots of positive trust & are respected by a lot of people so what exactly is your problem with the DT set up?
That one is obvious: he's not on the DT list anymore and feels he should be based on all the deals he's done. But you have to look at why he was removed to understand what the problem is, and I'll leave that for you to discover.
