Is there any way to provide feedback to a private individual for transactions made in the classified adverts? I know we have 'karma' but that doesn't quite capture it does it?
I guess word of mouth is a good starting point...perhaps a "trusted trader" button on sponser profiles with a + for good, trustworthy traders and a - button for unreliabel rip off merchants?
Think that would be a good idea although most are ok on here apart from that bloke from hairyfoot lol Defo no worse than people on fleabay
There is a trader add-on script for the forum, Admin, which lets you leave feedback and rating. Much in the style of fleabay.
MAN get it off your CHEST......ER., i'm off for some fresh AIR now, gotta get COOLED down, it's getting hot in here.
ok jokes aside it is a good idea. the karma function would work though as you put in a description of why it is + or - if you click on username you can see that persons comments. or do you mean it's not clear as a trading feedback thing in general?
On a previous forum I was on, (with the same forum base as this one), there was a similar thing they called trade score, which allowed you to add one to a user each time they sold you something that you were happy with. anyone could then click on it and see what they had sold. Worked well as you only got a point if the buyer was happy. Conversely, they also had one for the buyer as well so that the seller was happy they would be a good buyer. Well I've just rattled on for a few sentenses when all I need to say was, I agree with bodyrock...
