Not saying it'll work here just a FYI and I know you PDC (probably don't care) but I mean no harm

Sorry, my mistake. No other thread, false alarm. Let's continue here.

Re-opened, closed originally cause I don't read so good

Ok, synopsis of the morning.

Wes thought posting comments was a good idea.

Dave thought so too

I explained that it will never happen, and why

Wes said never say never

I said never

Shrimskin called me a power tripper

I laughed, said bye

Chin came to my defense, saying it's not power tripping, it's just the ugly truth, and comments will never be allowed in open forums.

Jaws had a reply and I've asked him to put it here.

That about covers it.

Oh, and we love Wes, he wasn't feeling any love.


This was all removed from a thread some mod hijacked before coffee. We should be good now.

Carry on

Ok Kids, why do I have to come on from 1/2 way around the world to tell you all to stop being silly Vender ratings never work as the boards are to scared they will be sued if anything bad is posted about them.

Now if we can get over this it is a good idea, but it stinks to have it anonomous.. thats just a cop out for some one who won't stand by there words.

If I am going to make a post about so an so's store, I would like it to have a few options on a scale. like 1 to 5 one being "it sucks" and 5 being "I've found nervana" then have a few catagories, service, selection, knowlage, ect... and have the companies split into catagories, like hard ware, live stock, mail order, ect.. so you can easily compare apples to apples.

the way I see it if I do a review on a store, to make up a name we'll say Brads fish emporium, and service I felt he did a real good job so I give him a 4 "sorry Brad you ain't no nervana ", selection I thought sucked so I gave him a 2, and knowlage I felt he was average so I gave him a 3. why would I want my name to be hidden, I stand behind my words. this also give the vender the opertunity to privatly e-mail you and ask what you think he could have done to improve his image in your eyes. and if it is possable maybe he could fix it and change your opinion.

this leads me to the next point, have some way for the person who left the review to modify his votes, so if this are fixed and he is happy now he can make his opinion reflect this.

deleting them and restarting them every 6 months is no good either as it has no accoutability. if they stay there the vendors will be encouraged to do more to "fix" there immage.

Now I know Christy loves polls, but I don't know if it is possable to do what I have said but I am sure if it is she would know how you can thank me later Christy.
