Suggestion: Spanish subforum "Servicios" should be inside "Mercadillo" structure

[d5000]

I recently noticed that the Servicios forum, the Spanish equivalent of "Services", isn't inside the Spanish Marketplace section, the Mercadillo, but instead in "Mercado y Economía".

I think this should be changed and "Servicios" should be moved into the "Mercadillo" structure.

Apart from making much more sense, the main reason is that the Trust ratings aren't shown in the Servicios section actually, while they are shown in the Mercadillo subforums. The Servicios forum hosts mainly announcements of different companies and freelancers, but potentially can also be used by scammers and other malicious actors. Thus negative trust ratings should definitely be shown there as they can help fight scams and shady services.

See for example this thread: it is about a service provider described by several trustworthy users as potentially dangerous. But the thread is self-moderated, so criticism will be very likely be deleted. And you can't see that the OP of this thread has two negative trust entries.

Alternatively, if there is some reason to keep the current structure, the Trust ratings should be simply enabled in the Servicios section.

Thanks

I'm not from the Spanish board but I see sense id everything you have said and perhaps Bitcointalk forum is hosted on SMF it's probably going be difficult to start rearranging the subboard (Services) so I would support the idea of enabling rating in the services section.

But if course one might find it reasonable to visit the profiles whomever you wish to do business with as it's paramount to know how much well you can trade with them.

And at the same time things happen so trust rating sometimes may not even be enough to deal with some people because everything starts one day someone can decide to do something silly one day. I think just do business with some who you feel it's best to deal with.

Normally forum software like SMF allows such a "rearranging" without any problems, it's one of the basic features of forum software since the 90s.

The problem is that I don't know who has access to this feature for the Spanish forum. That's also why I started this thread. If anybody knows ...

I also started a thread in the Spanish subforum to gather support & opinions for this proposal.

I will take the opportunity to respond to two threads here. Regardless of the change proposed by d5000, which I support because it would result in a better organisation of the Spanish local forum, to the proposal of:

Show Trust-Rating everywhere?

I would vote yes. In that way, spin-off problems like this would also be avoided. I don't see why merit, activity or rank is shown on all boards and trust is not.

Coming just to agree with the proposal of d5000. I think is gonna be very useful to avoid scams atempts.

Like don pedro said i also support the idea of having the trust showed everywhere.
