This topic might have come up before . . . I am a member of several other forums where they have iTrader ratings enabled. What this is, is a way to give positive or negative feedback on a sale, somewhat like eBay does feedback. I figured with so many sales going on, even for the forum sponsors, it might be good to know who you can trust for an honest sale. I have seen threads, which blast forum members, because they're not honest. It would be good to know before you went into a sale, that the person you're buying from or selling to, is honest.
Does it cost WERA anything? I say make the classifieds pay to use or, better yet, get rid of them entirely.
The problem is the people who register just to post to sell or buy. People think that just because someone registers here they are automaticly trust worthy and you don't need to research the seller/ buyer. Don't buy from someone with 1 or 2 posts and registered that day or such. Research the seller/ buyer. Don't be a retard and let your guard down. Never forget that WERA has the classifieds section (and the BBS in general) as a service to it's members. They don't HAVE to have it.
Looks like the plug-in is free: http://www.vbulletin.org/forum/showthread.php?t=102965 As for buyer beware, you don't have to let your guard down. I'm thinking that this may HELP.
I don't want it to. I'll be honest, I HATE the classifieds. Hate dealing with it, hate cleaning up the forums and have come to hate many of the sellers there. The only parts of it I like are the Riders Discout portion and pissing off the idiots who are retards and can't follow the rules. Oh, I also like some of the dealers that follow the rules, are damn good at what they do and are honest as f@ck (STG and RD are just two examples of this).
How long were the Hymers a part of the racing community? Just sayin' IMO, there's no way to be 100% certain with anyone. I've bought and sold a lot on here, bikes and parts. I post a lot in the dungeon, so what does that prove? I've been racing with wera for almost 2 years, but very few here have actually met me, I'm pretty much an introvert. The only thing that makes posters here legit are that they'll be shunned at the track or here (this place is very addicting), but again, see my first line^ No way to be 100%. Don't shut it down DaveK. Take precautions or buy NEW, it's that simple.
No, you're cool, I'm just tired of people letting their guard down. Treat buying and selling like it's war, know your opponent and don't trust ANYONE you don't know (and even then, don't let your guard down).
Hey man, it's a perfectly good corpse, no point in letting it go to waste and shit. My daily driver is an ice cream truck covered in human skulls.
