Feedback system here is out of control

[wck]

People can slap nonsense feedback on you any made up reason.   There should be a way that feedback can be appealed and accounts that slap nonsense feedback should get negative feedback for doing so.   Basically there are just some users that are just jerks and probably use multiple accounts so that they can be a jerk in one account without any impact on their main account.   That seems somewhat shameful.    Then if they don't agree with something they just run around posting shill, sock puppet or other non-sense.   

I'm currently starting a new account because it is easier than dealing with the old one.   

Since I was never engaged in trading or encouraging people to engage in any particular activity I don't feel any feedback calling a scammer was justified.    It is a shame and I actually stayed away for over a year because it left such a bad taste in my mouth.

Well don't engage in account sales and don't promote ponzi schemes, and you won't get tagged by people here.

I fully agree with you that the feedback system sucks.  Look at my feedback and you'll see that none of the negs reflect any trading or anything else.  They're all retaliatory.  Even HUGE BLACK WOMAN got negged.  But what can you do?  My suggestion is to do what I do and don't give a f$$k about the feedback.  There's nothing that's perfect in this world, and if you strive for a perfect feedback page here on the forum, you're going to be sorely disappointed.

From my experience you don't have to engage selling accounts or even ponzi schemes to trigger negative feedback.   Most the feedback is just triggered in having a different viewpoint form someone that is intolerant and you are correct it is just retaliatory.   You are also correct I should be bigger and not care.  

I can think of ways the feed back system could be improved slightly, for example require a transaction id to back up scamming claims.   If it isn't on a blockchain it didn't happen.   Although I know that would never fly and people could easily work around it.   It is just that maybe random feedback is just too easy to post.  

So you are a black woman?   That is pretty cool.   I'm a white man living in Japan with teenagers that love to make fun of my nearly non-existent Japanese.  (At least in their minds ...)   I'm all for diversity.   Different schools of thought lead to creative approaches.  

Thanks I'll try to grow a thicker skin.

PS. Interesting site you set up.   While I'm not really into that, it is a bit different to see!

The part of me that still loves Big Daddy Kane and BDP is blacker than black.  You know Ebay used to have a feedback system that allowed anyone to leave feedback for anyone.  They did away with that in like 2000 or something.  And it was probably for this exact reason--it gets abused.  Either you get people negging other people out of spite or grudges, or you get shill accounts leaving fake positive feedback.  And they've required you to have a transaction with a member before you can leave feedback for a long-ass time now, and it's worked out pretty well. 

It drives me nuts when you see something so obviously broken, and people defend the status quo to the death.  And I get it, it looks like Theymos isn't ever going to change it, so we all just have to make do.  But it's such a broken, lousy system and let's call it as such.

Reputation system suks ? Wwow and you are the one who makes it so mate. I paid back loan but some arrogant people haven't removed their feedback and then they complain among which you are one.
