New Mod to iTrade ???

Discussion in 'Support & Feedback' started by pulikuttann, Apr 17, 2007.

    This days I found a lot of newbies and other just use our trading section for scamming purposes.So I am with some new suggestion.

    1) iTrade only for members with 30 days and 100 postings

    2) If the itrade becomes -1 then he should be suspended from itrade for 5 days.



    This can even effect me.But this can make all of the itraders more dedicated towards there work.


    Is this a BIG Foolishness ???
    If I am sorry .This was a small idea from my small head

    Add your supports !

    I agree, but it may be too harsh for 100 posts and 30 days.

    Perhaps, 14 days and 30 posts?

    Ratman2050, I agree with you about 15 days but do NOT agree for 30 posts.

    That must be 50 at least....

    GReen to you both!

    It dosent matter how many posts and days, the first time someone advertises something inaccurately or scams someone, they should be completely banned.

    Agree on permanent ban for scamming.

    DP members need a strong protection there where deals involve money, and there is no guarantee of a successful transaction.
    Inaccurate advertising should be penalized with an infraction though.

    Scammers must be banned for ever. Don't let them do it again.

    Agreed that newbs shouldn't have access to the itrader function. Although the second point people could just give people fake itrader and they would be banned so I don't believe that would work but sure to the other point :).

    1. People come here just to sell, they do not want 100 posts posting to be able to sell! 30 Days is far to long, people need to sell this straight away not so long after.

    2. People can get -1 for the wrong reasons, banning them then just traps them. It is a warning to others and people can see that rating to find out the problem on when they do trade them.

    Ok maybe 50. I guess it is ok because at least it doesn't refrain you from Buy, Sell, or Trading.

    Thanks for rep!

    How would you tell if a seller is worth trusting if he just came to the forum and started selling from the very first date without making any posts on the forum for you to consider when checking him out?

    For most of the disputes, both parties have their own excuses. So there should be some one to find who is the right and who is wrong. Which is not going to happen. So is your suggestion.

    I think 2 weeks and 50+ posts would be good option for letting newbies to post in the Buy Sell Trade Forum...

    I strongly think that post count should not be made the basis for the trustworthiness of a person. I can make 50 posts in 2 days, because I have basic knowledge in most of the forums in DP. Hence I don't find it much difficult to join a discussion. But that is not the case for all users here, especially those who are here for doing or promoting their business.

    What we need is a system in which both the buyer and seller won't be knowing how the other person has rated that transaction. If a person knows how much points the other party has given him, he will retaliate in a similar fashion. So we need something similar to a grading system. So that traders are rated by their overall performance and individual transaction are not important. Each transaction will be graded in a scale, say -5 to 5. But the total points nor the individual transaction points will not be available to the other party / public. Only thing available will be a grade depending on the total point available to the trader.
    This way, we can control the freebie itrader problem too. Because since the other person won't be knowing how much point was given to him / her, the traders will be be giving points depending on what they actually think about the transaction. Automatically good, fast, trustworthy traders will get higher points and others will lose their points. This way no one has to worry about getting a negative point for exposing a scammer. Because, if he has enough positive points, then automatically the negative will become effectless.
    If this system can be connected to the the existing reputation system, then we will be having a highly trustable trading system.

    What do you think about this?

    -I think scammer should be banned forever from tredaing.
    -It should be 50 post min. for completing any deal in BST section.


    It will be helpful to all BST users.
