Is feedback only for trades/loans and things like this? I have seen that alot of feedback is because people dislike other members. How can this be avoided so people dont get feedback they shouldnt? Cant this be a thing that will scare away members? Thanks for my questions..
You can
read all the post with recommendations from theymos to make it more clear, but I'll quote some point right here:
- Leave positive ratings if you actively think that trading with this person is safer than with a random person.
- Leave negative ratings if you actively think that trading with the person is less safe than with a random person.
So right, Trust system is about trading, but if some cheat in anything else how can they be trusted in trade? If I see that someone is a cheater or a lier I suppose that I should warn others so they be more cautios dealing with that one account. They can ignore my tag if they don't think that those cheats I will mention are reasonable.
The same about positive tags: if I see that someone is responsible and I think he will hardly cheat I can leave a tag saying that. So anyone can see my review and make own conclusions.
But, well, you are right, there are inappropriate tags also. Some leave tags for an opposite position, in response for a tag left for them, or just because they don't like someone. It is not what we expect from a Trust system.
