Suggestion: add iTraders feedback on thread view

Hi,

A suggestion: add the iTraders feedback on thread view.

Screenshot from a different forum:

Cons: it adds value to an user profile while reading the forums.

It's already there right? I mean, click on the avatar and it is there.

Edit: just checked, only a ptg is there. Also the +0/-0 doesn't make sense... So, may be put the itrader score instead of that non functional count?

It's active on the PMs as well:

I've never bothered using it in all my years on here, in all honesty.
Yet I see people who have hundreds and must actively encourage these feedbacks leaving.

Hmm but the total count would help much more than ptg.

It's an interesting dynamic. In all honesty I relate the iTrader feedback to a mentality of "achievement hunting" to some extent. The same reason I saw fellow Marine's go above and beyond for a piece of fabric and metal.

I am definitely susceptible to the iTrader feedback hunting mentality. I always leave feedback and ask for honest feedback in return. This probably stems from my years on eBay where feedback is dispensed and received to a high degree and it almost comes instinctively.

Like Karma and the + & - votes system here, iTrader feedback is some indication of a users social status on the forums.

Adding the visibility of one's iTrader feedback to every post would certainly be an interesting dynamic. I wonder how it would affect the Marketplace, at least for new marketplace users.
