Well, you can start by not harping on how people here DO NOT TRUST ME. I mean you are repeating the message you don't want people to have. Don't you see how counterproductive that is?

Also, geez, the other thread was 8 hours ago and this one was 3 hours ago. It takes more than 5 hours to "build trust" and establish good relationships with prospective customers.

I don't think anyone can give you the explanation in a nutshell. Building trust takes time and effort and problem solving. Yelling at people or whining at them about "why don't you like me?" or something only adds fuel to the fire.

I trust everyone until they give me a reason not to, that is my philosophy and my fault for assuming everyone else's.
