Minecraft Name:
Frostystorm1
Suggestion:
A section in the forum for reputation threads.
Reason:
Most users on the server go through at least 1 ECD for Feature transaction or star tool rental on the server. As most of you already know, this takes a certain degree of trust in the other user. Reputation threads can be a great way for someone to show the completed transactions they have done. A long rep thread would show another user that you are trustworthy and have completed trustworthy transactions in the past.
Example:
If you have a rep thread showing that you have rented star tools multiple times without problems, it can demonstrate to the owner of a tool you want to rent, that you are able to handle the tool without losing it.
Other Information:
Plenty of other games already have rep threads (Eg: TF2, CS:GO, etc)
Link to this plugin/Is this a custom addition?:
Just a new forum section

Granted this isn't for Star Tool sales, but for the most part people buy Star Tools on payment plans and they can be treated as a "loan". It requires the community to provide input on players they have dealt with, but these seem to cover what you are suggesting. -

I guess that works, but i think a reputation thread is more organized since you can just link someone to your personal rep thread, and they can read all the reviews and transactions you have had. It is also more generalized and covers more transaction types than feedback. What I'm kind of getting at is a thread that I could title "[Reputation Thread] Frostystorm1" and have a bunch of people below comment how they sold me features or lent me star tools and nothing went wrong. It would be really useful for me to keep track of everything I do that involves trust, since I do plan to stay a resident for a while.

Expipiplusone BuilderBuilder ⛰️ Ex-Tycoon ⚜️⚜️⚜️ Premium UpgradeI want to make explicit what @Frostystorm1 implicitly pointed out: those are a single thread (for all players) on loans, and a single thread (for all players) on features. If you want to see only the feedback on a particular user, you need to search within that thread: now, this is possible, however it's not very comfortable having to click every result to view the feedback given; it would be much more handy to have all feedback relative to a single player in a single thread. And let's not forget that those two threads cover only two aspects of our economy, despite big.
Technically you could already do that by yourself: just make a new thread in Economy & Market section (or idk where) titled as you exemplified, and ask all players you traded with to give you feedback in there. The problems with this self-made approach are:
- if all players make such a thread on their own, that section is gonna be flooded with those;
- if it's not official, nobody is gonna know or care of it, and therefore it would be pointless.
The only issue I might foresee is... people being a dick; but there's plenty of room where to behave as idiots already, and overall this forum is in pretty good health, so I don't expect it to get sick just because of such a new section.
Overall, +1. No, make it +10.-

Agreed, spam isn't hard to handle. The only thing is that every user should only be allowed to post one reputation thread to limit spam.-
