Is a non-victim creating an otherwise factual flag also considered to be abusing the system?
Is someone who supports a factual flag that was created by a non-victim also considered to be abusing the system?
And is someone who opposes a valid flag also considered to be abusing the system?
That's all misuse of the system.
Can you explain how supporters (or opponents) of these two flags are or are not misusing the system:
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=trust;flag=56It almost sounds to me like flags should have either 100% support or 100% opposition. If there is a split then one side is wrong and that side is misusing the system... what am I missing?
The supporters are misusing the system....
The flag says:
[...]This determination is based on concrete red flags which any knowledgeable & reasonable forum user should agree with, and it is not based on the user's opinions.
The above statement is in no way true. I have continued trading after the incident in question with a small number of people, have had zero trade complaints, nor credible accusations of scamming by my trading partners or otherwise. For example:
DebitMe 2015-12-17 Lent me 3 btc on an loan with no collatoral. Was a pleasure to work with and willing to take the time to work with me when I didn't have access to a full computer. Would definately work with again.
