Feedback System

Hi all,

I just had my first TBB-trade. Though it was a pleasure to deal here, I'm missing a feedback system like ebay or boardgamegeek. Certainly a feedback-system would ensure more transparency and move even more BB-traders from "feebay" to TBB .
Do you agree in opinion?

Yes, but it will have to be completely transparent and strictly umpired to prevent flame wars from misunderstandings.

I'm not sure it would be necessary. I have primarily only bought from or traded with well established TBB members or people that I see on the tourney circuit. I have carried out a number of transactions and never had a problem.

To change TBB to anything resembling ebay would concern me that traders would seek to join TBB just to sell their wares. I much prefer the community 'swap shop' feel to the trading between genuine members.

What?? They were the best bits!


Personally, don't see the need - anyone on TBB rips someone else off, it's soon heard about pretty damn soon.

Add in the fact that only one person can make changes to the forum software (JohnnyP), and he still hasn't made the update to php3 more than a year after he planned to, and I can't see it happening even if it was necessary.

How could I forget Cheggers?

On second thoughts, I've just remembered why I forgot Cheggers.
