Negative rating because asking why a channel was forced closed?
Hi how to fix a negative rating just for asking a question?
https://lightningnetwork.plus/swaps/7626
I opened the channel and later replaced by a bigger one so swap requirements fullfilled.
Then the channel was forced closed (to my knowledge from the remote side) - it was also confirmed by the channelpartner. I asked to reopen the channel and instead of an explaination the comment confirming that "the channel was closed" was deleted and I got a negative rating.
This kind of behaviour is a bit strange - unfortunaltely there is not private communication available here so I had to comment and now ask in public. I was assuming a technical issue. I would have even reopend the channel in case the root cause is on my side and it is ensured that it will not be closed again.
BTW as I am pretty new to LN - forced closed is done by remote side right (or on restauration via a channel backup)? At least channels that are closed by me and opened by me () a "cooperatively closed". Or in other words how to find out who/what triggered the closing?
Note: UmbrelGuy369 node lost ~50 channels the last few days...

I am in the same situation but I not sure the guy you opened to can give you negative ratings. Ask the guy that opened to you

C rates B, B rates A, A rates C. You rate always to the one that should open a channel to you.

Oh you are right.
Weird that he gave you a negative rating, when he was the one that closed, unless you closed it by accident and not realizing it

In the comment he confirmed that he closed it and then deleted the comment (but I got it as automatic mail) and rated me negative after I have reposted his comment.
Strange behaviour but I can only speculate about reasons...

How much did it cost you? So weird

I had the same thing happen from the same guy, even those he went AWOL for over a week and had nearly all of his 200+ channels disable him.

I am not chasing for money back - it is about stopping such behaviour.

Perhaps people causing financial damages should bear the full logistical and financial cost to repair the damage? That's a good start.
Repeat violators could be held to a higher standard as well.
