I started the "Postive feedback" thread as a place for people to post their good transactions. If someone is a seller here, and is NOT on that list, then there is a reason to pause and think about buying from them. If someone is on the positive feedback list, but you have a horrible time with a transaction despite your best efforts, then please feel free to PM me and I will figure out how to put them on "probation" or something...
Posting our problems here could be considered flaming, and I think there could be better ways to go about weeding out the "bad eggs".
There is a way among the Php and other formats...ranks.
They are little blocks that fill in with color for example based on number of posts and so forth but it can be altered and tailored to be rating system for positive feedback.
I agree that flaming is not the way to go and that is is "Buyer beware" howver, I also believe that we should be able to trade/sell and so forth within this group with decency and respect...everyone should feel comfortable in doing business with another member of BYC.
Not in a mean way, I would just like to understand your position. from my standpoint..having never sold anything here but do a lot of trading and exchanges, I would not have a problem with any system like that...I would not have a problem with it because I do not plan on ripping anyone off nor do I plan on failing to follow through. I see no reason to fear such a system.
I have been an EBay seller for years and am proud of my feedback which is 100% positive...as a buyer as well.
To me, the only people that should take exception to something of this nature are those who are guilty of bad selling or who do not follow through etc etc...afterall that is the only way to get a bad rap.
Trust me...word gets around eventually and the gig is up anyway.
And FYI just because you are not on the positive Feedback list, doesn't mean your a bad seller, we have shipped over 400 eggs and non have broken. Just because some people would rather not waste their time and type about you, doesn't mean your fake or a bad person, ect.

give your 2 cents to someone else, because I sure do not need it.

My my aren't you the rude one? I said I was asking your position and not in a mean way. I was wanting to know where you were coming from and why you thought it was a bad idea "hands down". I see no need for you to be a nasty bit of goods.
I am happy that you have sold over 400 eggs and none of them broke Kudos...but you were obviously not the person that this topic would affect. But now I know where you are coming from and to be frank I am glad I am not going that way.
The list is merely a way to help others know who to buy from that is reliable nothing more.
