It's the Christmas miracle lol I've also noticed my trades from back east were really quick lately.
I got a trade from Manitoba within 3 days, waiting on a trade from the city next to mine since first week of December, still hasn`t showed up.
I have had a couple of PMs about late threads sent over the holidays, please remember that Canada Post works business days and probably have a bit of a backlog anyway
Negs left after only 7 days since agreement of the trade will be removed (in fact most under 3 weeks unless it is clear the person is scamming). Please use some common sense in deciding when a trade is lost.
We will also start to come down on people who are aggressive in their PMs about trading issues. I understand that it is frustrating when you don't get coupons in time for a sale, but most of the time, the postmarks show they were sent on time
Hi there,
Shwa Girl left me a negative trade rating as revenge because I was requesting coupon details for a deal she had posted on the forums. This deal was then found to be invalid due to her coupon abuse and later expired by the mods. Classy! We have never traded. Is this what the itrader is now used for....to attack people? She is lucky she can do this behind a computer screen. I would like to have something done about her vile behaviour. Thank you.
Edited to add: I see she has now left a revenge negative rating for another smartcanucker too. And positive "..." trade ratings for her crew. What the heck is this nonsense? Oh boy. Here we go... :rolleyes:
They have been removed
iTrader is not open to non-Trades, but there is no possible way for the system to know if someone sent someone a trade/RAOK etc
Some time ago we looked into an ebay style system to stop it, but people would have to list every single coupon. People with organized trade lists were for it, but the people who just look at wishlists etc, not so much It is a lot of extra work for traders and many people would not use it so we decided against it.
As for the ban, I already replied to that part by PM
I see she is still leaving positive trade ratings for her buddies on iTrader and they aren't even trades. Either the entire iTrader system should be scrapped (because who is really monitoring the trades and the comments can be posted to look legitimate) or more extra measures put in place. I just reported them all to get them removed.
Just as I removed them all this morning, I would remove those ones too
There are two active mods and a few others who do other stuff. We work, we sleep, we eat and have stuff outside of SC to do. We don't get paid for modding, it is not our whole lives so please be patient.
As far as iTrader, as I mentioned earlier, it is not perfect but every other system we have looked at has issues too and the best system would add hours of work for traders listing their coupons - something the majority of people do not want to do. It would result in less coupons available for trade.
I remove several every week that are flagged as suspicious so we are monitoring them, and many users report theirs if there is an issue too. Even today, the positive ones were reported as being left unfairly, people don't want potentially suspicious ratings on their record either
Frequently honest feed back gets removed just because the person it is about es and moans to you.
I try to work with all traders so they get their coupons and don't wreck their trade rating over one trade, sadly some people are unwilling to admit they are wrong or follow through
I am waiting on a $5 gc from someone from the last week of . I have Pm'd them a couple times now asking if my end of the trade was sent out and that I have not yet received it, but no reply. I checked and they have since logged onto SC, so would have received my PM and had the opportunity to reply. Their trading feedback score is positive and they have even traded with traders that I have traded successfully with in the past and recently. Hoping it arrives this week...
