Seriously, get off of smoked's back. He does this for the good of all bettors. The fact that he changed it goes even further to show that he was doing the right thing. It is your fault for being irresponsible with your fg and not using one of the highlighted trusted mediators.
Besides that, it is fake money that you cannot gain anything real with since we can't buy RL items. So, in the end, what is your loss?
I agree it wasn't smoke's fault. Many people vouched for him so he was added to the list, just like the rest of the people on the list.
That said, I don't think you can blame others for relying on the list. In fact, I messaged most of the people highlighted in blue about holding the 2000fg for our fantasy football league, and they weren't willing to hold the gold for that long (duration of the football season). Two or three people in blue vouched for Hardwork1, who was under the trusted category and did volunteer to do it.
Now it looks like all the gold for our fantasy football league is lost. That includes gold from Ace21, extravaganza, Inconnu45, BongRippers, Eli Manning, EVILBIGIN, and myself. For some of these members, that was all the gold they had.
(Smoked later volunteered to hold the gold for our 4000fg fantasy football league, but we never got enough people to start that one.)
