Feedback

Call me slow, but I just figured out a little nuance of the Feedback system here.

I have 7 positive scores from trades and buys, but my score only shows 6. Couldn't figure out why until I check out someone else's feedback info.

We only get scored on the number of trades with different inmates. I had 2 scores from the same person, but the second one didn't count. No big deal, but had me scratching my head for a little while.

I think that is an issue, I'd report it I think.

BOTL is the same way. I noticed my trades didn't match the feedbacks I had too.

Mine shows 3, but I have 4 trade/purchases. I figured it was because I had two trades from the same person and they only count once?

I would rather see each one reported as such. One good or bad trade with a person does not necessarily mean that all will be. And assuming that all further trades will be the same..... We all know that assuming is the mother of all **** ups.

Trader rating fraud is a problem on Ebay and anywhere a. Rating system is used. I think the system as is acts as at least a partial prevention to people manipulating the system

I'm not sure how it would work if there was -ve feedback from someone who had previously posted +ve feedback.

In any case, a full record is still available for each person. I usually check a person's full report instead of just the posted number.

This system works for me, I just didn't know it worked like that and it confused me for a "short" while.

The setting was definitely a conscious choice. If there's ever a compelling reason to change it, we may, but for now it is as described.
