In my opinion, there should be leniancy in feedback , as of all the trades I have done, only one have I been able to give valid feedback because most deals are done through PM. Are we that cynical????

I don't quite follow what you trying to convey here... Could you please rephrase your question? How are we being cynical? What's going on? Who, what, when, where, why?

Good question Khackdrums, I don't understand either

I think I know what jaffer means. ( correct me if I'm wrong jaffer )

I think he means that there should be some kind of topic in feedback that tells you if someone is a "good" trader or not. For example; I was looking for a certain autograph, and offer to trade it for another one. You would read that, and tell me you have the a.g. I want, and you want to trade. But How do we know that we can trust each other, I could be lieing, or you could.
I think that's what jaffer means, a feedback that tells us if a person is a good trader and not some1 that is a, how do call it, a con artist? ( may a bit cruel, but I can't find a beter word )

I hope I'm right

I believe Jaffer is trying to say that deals done via PM (and not publicly on the forum) should also be eligible to be posted on the feedback thread. I don't think that would be a good idea though, since it would allow for even more lying/scamming.

And this isn't the first time I've said it, but this forum really needs a proper feedback system similar to vBulletin's iTrader.

I think you might have a point dfreely, but I'm not sure if there is a system that is totaly scam proof. But maybe they can make some improvements

No system is scam-proof, but iTrader would at least offer ease and versatility. It's up to the mods to make sure everything is in check, regardless of whatever feedback method is used.

True, but there is another problem. Let's say I scammed you, however doesn't matter, but I scammed you, and you're telling everyone not to do any form of trading with me, and the mods step in. I can very easely sign in, using a new username, and do the same thing over and over. That's the point I think. And for the record, I'm not a scammer.

It's really up to each person whether or not they want to deal with someone with no feedback, just like eBay. Even if a scammer came back with a new account, he would at least start with 0 score. It's unlikely a lot of people would choose him over, say, someone with a feedback score of 20.
