Recently I've been watching so many shitlists which create some mediatism for a few days and than looks like everyone just forgets about it.
No one's talking about sartre anymore and all the people who got fucked who the hell even promoted that guy to Exec anyway, or when crypto boomed and old accounts (bought bhw accounts in third-parties) starting appearing from everywhere with people doing stuff they cant like selling discord dm services after security update for crypto/nft users here or when instagram algo updated and services start appearing or those active sales threads with inflated responses which are more than obvious and still active god knows why.
That's what happen when brand new members can start sales threads or apply for freelancer jobs because they pay a subscription for it.
Everyday I see this brand new members who spam introduction threads to acquire minimum requirements for subscription or just buy marketplace to bypass that like some proxy businesses I've seen around for example.
Yes I do not agree with that forum policy because online business with upfront payments need a trustworthy factor to be considered legit and have a good overall sucess rate.
Anyone can buy a subscription, start a sales thread with vicious result by buying them for a third-party, then when approved attracting costumers with great prices (ofc lmao) when vicious sellers tend to grab as much clients and value as possible bofore shitlists start to appear (sartre case between others).
Online business can only have overall success for both parts if there is a escrow service which translates into that "trustworthy factor" or if the parts are well know members with some kind of respect value which I understand forum ranks kinda, in a way, provide that except some cases like sartre or tommy which had the maximum rank available and still got shitlisted and banned.
Something needs to be done and the 2.0 Marketplace yes will somehow solve that with hold payments until results are showed, however it will not fix other things and I feel that regular users and promitent service buyers, each day it passes, feel that bhw is not as trustworthy as before with all this stuff.
The only way I see this getting better, is by aplying safety measures in terms of marketplace sales threads, increase the sales thread value or whatever, true sellers will not bother because they know the service is good but by increasing the price implement more features to check the service quality and legitimacy and by increasing accounts trustworthy factors for free and paid ranks.
"Oh but it will decrease BHW profitability and bla bla bla" will it? No. And if you think it will apply a fee/royality for each sale in each service in 2.0 marketplace upon escrow service. More services dont equal to more profitability, you need to streamline, adjust the way the service and payments are delivered. We need quality not quantity.
My 2 cents.
