feedback

Let's say I open a channel, i can receive feedback for that, but i can't give a feedback to the peer.They can close my channel, they can suck all the liquidity and close my channel.
They should get a negative feedback.

Yes, this is a common request. I want to introduce this, but it’s complicated. When you rate an incoming channel it’s straightforward. Did they open within the deadline or not? However, in the other scenario you described there could he a legit forwarding that “sucks” the channel liquidity and then they may have to close because the other party appears offline to no fault of their own, but due to tor or software issues. But still, we will have a rating for both directions just need to think of a good and fair way to do it. I’m working on it.

I think uptime/node constantly being offline is more important to know... 

Whether they drain the channel it not a real concern, that is a normal part of LN.

uptime sure it's top stat to avoind FC.
in my particular case it was a channel that I opened...base at 0 , ppm at 1, I could not route.
it was a short swap, at the end of it, the peer did a rebalance for all the channel and closed it.I suppose he did this already and it's so full of inbound with no outbound that i was basically not able to route.
First and only time that happen to me, but also happy to know that some kind of more accurate feedback is on going
