Feedback/Honest recommendations

[opkzzz]

Hi.

I think there can be done an improvement in what I'm talking about (or perhaps how I approach this is simply not efficient)

Use case: you search a specific thing to buy from this forum. Either proxy, smm services, ads cloaking, anything. As somebody who wants to see some feedbacks/opinions/reviews of those sellers before burning the money, I watch their marketplace thread looking for reviews. It's kinda difficult as many sellers have 20+ pages (70% of each page maybe be only BUMPS sometimes)

Why can't it be a page like "proxies reviews". Or idk this is just an idea, surely can be improved/tuned to actually mean something good and easier for users looking for a service to find reviews about sellers in order to be sure what they spend their money on. Indeed we would rely on people to actually write transparent reviews.

Of course, it would raise the problem of fake reviews. But idk it might be actually a chance to provide to a good and honest seller a way of improving his reputation, while the scammers/people who are not serious to have a bad/ok-ish reputation.

Am I checking these reviews wrong? If so please enlighten me. If not, let me know of your thoughts about this idea.

Thanks!

I think something like a filter to filter out the OP's posts in the thread can help

Yes I think that would be the easiest way to check others comments in the seller's thread. Lowest impact also (considering not adding a breaking change)

Let me enlighten you @opkzzz

Seller has an easy option to add their reviews on main sales thread using spoiler or they can attach the screenshot to their main sales thread but they mostly avoid it to do it {but they don't know by doing this it will bring them more sales}

Example : customer like you and me go to any search for any services lets says I am looking for VS service then i found an seller who's attached reviews to their main sales threads and that's way i can clearly see the seller is genuine and worked with many other members on the forum for reference look at some reputed members threads to understand things better (I can't mentioned anyone sales thread because doing so I break the forum rules)

Soooooooo means the problem is not the forum the users who don't adopt the given features well

With that being said there is absolute no need for any special section / page or whatever you call for reviews because itself marketplace gives you many option to filter it out regarding the seller's authenticity

Hope this makes more sense to you
