Because of the frequent desire by people on here to comment on a buying or selling transaction, for better or worse, and to avoid chaos and flames, we have decided to create a forum section devoted to providing feedback on people here.
THE RULES ARE VERY SPECIFIC, and if you do not follow them, there will be consequences. I will be enforcing rules to the maximum for the time being, in order to ensure we all follow them from the beginning.
----------------------------------------------------
FEEDBACK RULES:
If you want to provide feedback on someone, search THIS FORUM SECTION ONLY for the name of the person you want to comment on.
This will let you find the existing thread for the person you wish to provide feedback for, and you can then add your entry to that thread at the end.
- BEFORE you post NEGATIVE feedback, you MUST try to resolve it first with the other person. Include the time involved in the issue in your comments section. If we see you are flipping out after only a few days of waiting in your transaction, we will DELETE your feedback entry, and you may be issued an account warning.
- Feedback must be CIVIL. This means no name-calling or insults. Just the facts as you know them to be.
- Only put +1 or -1 in the rating section of the form. No +20 or -infinity or other nonsense. Do not put a zero, either. If you are putting a zero, then you shouldn't be commenting at all.
- Only post feedback for someone IF you *personally* have gone through a transaction with them. Do not post feedback on transactions that a "friend" or whatever had.
Feedback Format:
Feedback For: [buyer's name, or seller's name]
You in the transaction(seller or buyer): [your name]
Feedback Rating: this is where you put +1 or -1. Nothing more. Hit or miss.
Pay with: [paypal, money order, etc.]
Comments: this is where you put comments on the transaction
for example...
Feedback for: Keith
You in the transaction: Buyer
Feedback Rating: +1
Pay with: Money order
Comments: Good communication, good product, fast ship. Would buy from him again.
_________________________________
THIS FORMAT IS 100% REQUIRED, and failure to use it may result in a warning issued to your account.
The Moderator Team will update the title of EACH thread with the total point rating of the person, so that you can see how they rank as buyers or sellers.
NO DISCUSSION IS ALLOWED OUTSIDE OF THE FORMAT REQUIREMENTS!
Let me say this again:
NO DISCUSSION IS ALLOWED OUTSIDE OF THE FORMAT REQUIREMENTS!
If you are caught posting outside of the required format, you will receive an automatic account warning, or even possibly a temporary post-ban, and your post will be automatically deleted.
LIKEWISE, if you are the person being evaluated, and you are NOT happy with the feedback you receive, you are to take it up with the poster of the feedback PRIVATELY. DO NOT PUBLICALLY RESPOND to feedback entries, or you will receive an automatic account warning, or even possibly a temporary post-ban, and your post will be automatically deleted.
THIS SECTION WILL BE STRICTLY MODERATED, however as long as someone follows the rules above, feedback can be posted by anyone, for anyone, regarding a transaction they shared.
