Reputation System - Help Fellow Members
 

Dear members

In order to increase the transparency of the market place and help fellow members identify unethical traders who treat fellow members unfairly or cheat them outright, please use the forum's Reputation System to make sure such members get what they derserve: a bad rep.

In every post a member makes, you will see a Reputation Box containing his Reputation Level. Default points is 10 (a green square ). Anything lower than that will mean that he/she has received Negative Reputation Points from another member who has Reputation Power greater than 0.

Reputation Power is determined by:
Length of membership (1 year= 1 point)
Post count (100 posts = 1 point)
Reputation Points (20 points = 1 point)

(these factors will be adjusted over time and we welcome your feedback)

Qualifying members can add/minus Reputation Points of another member by clicking on the icon while viewing his/her post. "I Approve" means give points. "I Disapprove" means take away points. This process is anonymous.

Remember also to reward deserving members with "I Approve" to encourage helpful and ethical behaviour.

While this system is not perfect, hopefully it can serve to weed out some of the black sheeps in the community.

In the case of outright fraud, please do not hesitate to contact us directly to assist in any police investigations. We do not protect any group/groups of members, whether they are on paid membership or not.

Having said this, please be mindful that this is a B2B portal and most members are here for a profit motive. Hence, please make sure that you scrutinise your counter party and do your own homework before entering into any contracts.

With this in mind, we hope to make your experience in using this platform a more pleasant one.

Regards

Hi i'm still not sure abt this system. Can someone pls enlighten me? Defaut pt is 10 and if anything lower than tt means bad rep? Then for the rep power starting is 0 and anything higher than tt means good rep? Correct anot?

Re: Reputation System - Help Fellow Members
 

As I understand, if your points less than 10 that mean someone votes you bad reputation.

:applause: It gives a good clear picture when we want to have any business deals with anyone in here.

Re: Reputation System - Help Fellow Members
 

uhm, whats the diff between rep and points?

Re: Reputation System - Help Fellow Members
 

Frankly, I'm just as blur. :laff:

Yours is rep:3 wor... Wah power leh.

Re: Reputation System - Help Fellow Members
 

Means that you have a good reputation lor...with more points comes good reputation. Hmm, I'm working towards that! :)

Re: Reputation System - Help Fellow Members
 

Wah, so many members logging in to post now. Must be lots of grieve some of them have at the Expo and with the rogue member. Frankly, we should have a vendor's union or something.

Re: Reputation System - Help Fellow Members
 

oh so it means points lower then 10 no good, then rep power high then good la is it?

Re: Reputation System - Help Fellow Members
 

I think what that means is if you have a certain number of posts and without any de-merits, then reputation will be good...cause I don't think we can merit any person leh.

Re: Reputation System - Help Fellow Members
 

Rep Points lower than 10 means this member has been given a negative Rep Points before by someone whose Rep Power is > 0. In that sense, it cannot be a good thing. Notice that the person giving it must be someone with CREDIBILITY. Hence, you are right to say that Rep Power high is good.

You can merit a person by choosing "I Approve". That member's Rep Points will increase (provided your Rep Power > 0). If you Rep Power is zero, you can still leave a comment, but you will not impact that member's Rep Points.

Rep Points - how others see you.
Rep Power - how you see others through giving or taking away Rep Points of other members.

Hope this is clearer.
