    Im sick of seeing threads mostly in the freebie forum doing free services or something really easy for people and exchanging rep for it. What even kills me worse is people doing this with iTrader.

    Reputation and iTrader need to be a basis set by EVERYONE. This is up to everyone to keep this balanced. If you let people keep exchanging rep and iTrader and then you decide to make a deal with them one day because they have a decent rep and iTrader and they rip you off then its your fault also.

    To make this plain and simple Im asking everyone to join me on stopping people from abusing a system that we use to help judge character for making serious transactions.

    If you see someone abusing it give them red rep. If everyone does this then the abuse will go away and DP will be a safer place to conduct transactions.

    What you can do right now is go through the freebie forum and look for yourself this abuse. Do whats right even though it costs you a point.

    I'm sick of this too.. red rep will be sent to those who deserve it... 1 point is not a lot.. considering the red rep power is 10 for us...

    Hopefully other people will join in to help set order to this :eek:

    I agree 100% aron ,

    I just saw a thread called "I will post for itrader"

    These types of threads should NOT be allowed and the member should be punished

    It used to be in bst, BUT I reported it and it got moved, so know there is no itrader to be passed

    But the point is that the thread is stupid

    I always thought the Itrader was for services rendered for payment, not for exchanging freebies. That pretty much defeats the purpose of having a system that rates consumer activity.

    Yes thats what you get, but for me its more than worth that. I would rather lose 1 point anyday than letting this go on and maybe losing a few hundred from someone that abused the system.

    If we do this in an organized manner, we can make a difference! Rather than just red repping someone that deserves it.. the whole group can. I don't want to seem cruel, but what needs to be done.. needs to be done

    SundayBrew I would have paid him up to 10c per post but he keeps saying no. I even PM'd him saying I would give him $1 for 10 posts and he said no "I'm doing it for free and only want iTrader", I'm not going to aid an illegal transaction.

    I also don't understand why everyone is green repping me and cursing me off lol.

    Agreed, what was posted in the other thread is what I am talking about. You would be helping that person get iTrader and rep for no reason.
