Hello!
Either you have not registered on this site yet, or you are registered but have not logged in. In either case, you will not be able to use the full functionality of this site until you have registered, and then logged in after your registration has been approved.
Registration is FREE, so please register so you can participate instead of remaining a lurker....
Please note that the information requested during registration will be used to determine your legitimacy as a participant of this site. As such, any information you provide that is determined to be false, inaccurate, misleading, or highly suspicious will result in your registration being rejected. This is designed to try to discourage as much as possible those spammers and scammers that tend to plague sites of this nature, to the detriment of all the legitimate members trying to enjoy the features this site provides for them.
Of particular importance is the REQUIREMENT that you provide your REAL full name upon registering. Sorry, but this is not like other sites where anonymity is more the rule.
Also your TRUE location is important. If the location you enter in your profile field does not match the location of your registration IP address, then your registration will be rejected. As such, I strongly urge registrants to avoid using a VPN service to register, as they are often used by spammers and scammers, and as such will be blocked when discovered when auditing new registrations.
Sorry about all these hoops to jump through, but I am quite serious about blocking spammers and scammers at the gate on this site and am doing the very best that I can to that effect. Trust me, I would rather be doing more interesting things with my time, and wouldn't be making this effort if I didn't think it was worthwhile.

Perhaps. Perhaps not. If someone you piss off comes here and creates 10 false registrations simply to bombard you with 10 negative feedbacks, how fair will you think that will be? And how fair will you think it is when we tell you that we aren't going to do anything about it without YOU providing rock solid proof to us about those false registrations?
There will be no way to express any rebuttal to those negative feedbacks at all. So then what will you think about that situation?
Think it can't happen?

Some of the features aren't accessible on unused accounts (I think the "start" is 10 posts for karma, for example). The site is also experiencing some technical difficulties which may affect its ability to process the membership. This can also be affected by the payment method - ie, echecks must clear before the membership will be processed.
Rich is working on getting things sorted out; so hopefully the technical stuff will be fixed in the near future. For the time being, make some posts (eliminate that from the equation).

Sorry, but among the issues exhibiting themselves with the server problems is the fact that PayPal payments are no longer showing up to update the accounts here. So I have to check for email notices, and the try to match up those payments with the member names here and update the accounts manually. Quite frankly, there is often no match at all between the info in PayPal and the info in a member's account here. And if their ISP (Yahoo, for instance) is blocking emails from this site because of the settings they have in their spam blocking (I presume) then they will never get my email about the problem. Which leaves the payment in limbo and no way for me to contact them about it.
So in such cases, my only option is to wait for them to contact me about the problem with their account not being update.
All in all this whole week or three has been a real pain in my buttocks.

I just completed a transaction with a Contributing member.

I have not renewed my paid membership at this time and can not leave him positive feedback in the trader ratings.
That just seems bass ackwards to me.
I am able to be left positive feedback, and receive trader rating points as a non contributing member.
The contributing member, that paid his dues is not able to get the credit that he deserves for our transaction.
On a whole nother' subject:
Has anyone else noticed that Chris@TSE still has the #4 all time leading trader rating?
The trader rating system could be improved, IMO.
(Especially if the BOI goes away.)

If the boi doesnt get dissolved,most people are ok with a goid guy post in the boi. Thats how half of my customers use since not being a paid member. And easy to look up.

I just re-subbed today. I have some snakes I am expecting next week and I'd like to leave feedback/ratings then. My PayPal info matches my account as far as name, but my location has changed by 15 miles. No rush, but I'll let you know if it doesn't kick in by next week.

I agree with RJK it would be great if something could be done with the trader ratings.
I have done three deals with other members on the site and we all are in the same boat.
All three deals went smooth and everyone was satisfied with the deals.
But its a big secret
Love to see some change in the future to what we have in place.
Love the site I am on it every day as I am sure most of you are.

This has been a long simmering issue here, and quite frankly I've about had my fill of answering the same questions with the same answers.
So here's the deal. Yes, I can open up the Trader's Ratings to all members, paying or not. But anything anyone enters there will be set in stone. None of the staff here will listen to, much less act on, ANY complaints from anyone about what sort of rating they applied to anyone, or had anyone apply to them. It will be what it will be, warts and all. When I get a chance, I'll set up a poll for this and that will tell me where you all want the chips to lie. Then when someone complains, we will simply provide them with a link to that poll and leave it at that.
And no, I am not inclined to pay for some complicated custom programming to be put into place there. The Trader's Ratings module is already a custom coding job that I had to pay for to have it implemented in the first place. So what you see now is the way it will remain except for ANYONE, bogus registrations and all, to vote on YOUR rating.
I'll put a link to the poll in this thread for interested parties to locate easier. I will spell out there as many of the caveats that I can think of so people will hopefully fully understand what they are voting on.
So be careful about what you wish for.
