A system where the source gets to rate us ?
ad
Wouldnt it be interesting if we had a section in our profiles where the sources we bought from could go in and rate us . No comments no replies just a numerical rating system where they could rate , how quick the person paid, how many questions needed to be answered, how patient, and then just an overall.
You know just like on EBay where the seller gets to rate the buyer . Then youd have a karma score, plus a customer rating.
Sources would you like that ?
Customers are you willing to be rated ?

RustyhookerI'd get a few zeroes across the board from a couple sources.
This would upset the folks that dont like doing self-pics...... if i was a source i would like to have a look at the progress being made by using my gear.
Would seem strange for a fat bastard with 30% BF and zero muscle pulling clear 10s just because he paid fast and gave a shit hot review just before he had a heart attack from high BP and edema lol....lol
AnonWell being fat doesnt make him a bad customer now does it ? It makes him a bad gear user though.
the hardware store doesnt care how well I split wood with my axe, only that I paid on time for it and didnt ask a thousand questions first.
JuiceFreakor it could be a opt in process
I like it but.... Earlier this week I placed an order with a top 5 source and CENSORED had a big screw up which was their fault. I received a pretty nasty email from this source which was very unprofessional . if this system is in place would it allow the source to bring my ratings down even though the screw up was not my fault?
AnonFR sent, Id love to know who that was. Dont say it here in the open though.
Fr accepted.
I think it is a fair idea. In particular for non-payment. I know sources are the general focus here but they are also sticking their necks out.
"You know just like on EBay where the seller gets to rate the buyer"
Actually, in 2008 Ebay stopped allowing Sellers to leave negative feedback the reason being that Buyers were afraid to leave negative feedback for fear that Sellers would retaliate and do the same.
Is that completely fair to the Sellers? No, because it makes it challenging to deal with problematic Buyers. HOWEVER, I believe it's the fairest system as it will give the most accurate Seller Rating and isn't that what we want. One of the main reasons eroids was created was to give Buyers reputable sources.
AnonAh just goes to show how much I do on ebay.
You know Ive seen a few sources say things have come back in to their inventory due to non payment. Id be willing to bet the people who do that make a habit of it. Thought perhaps if they were rated as a slow or fast payer less inventory foul ups may happen.
I heard a few times that the sources do have a "bad customer" list in the sources only section
Anonhmmm interesting
That is why it wont be happening......... if you could see what goes on in the hidden forums you would change your mind about this idea.
Yup. Def want to stay off that list.
I would be fine with this.. My sources love me! I'm awesome!
Ace VenturaI could name a few sources off hand that would love to rate some of their bad customers. I'd be all 10'a baby! I wouldn't mind it but it'll never happen.
then sources can award points to their followers and take points away from the customers that rated their gear as bad gear
mr127superdeeright i would not subscribe to that already sources decide if someones complaint is worth while just based off of their karma which is F***ed could you then imagine the conversations
custo: i am dying of an infection buyer beware
source this guy has no cutomer points dont listen to him
Lol
Anonhmmm yet another potential pitfall lololol
mr127superdeelol it was a good thought tho brother but the reality is the sources are the ones who need to be scrutinized not the customers if the product and service is good overwhelmingly the reviews will be good. im sure some sources will gimme the eye for this but i pride myself on being one of the few "no kiss ass all truth" guys on this site and the facts are the facts.anyway pm sent
AnonThe sources would rate you as soon as the transaction is over. But I guess you have a point still it could cause a spiteful review down the rd.
