I've never had that problem or people complain to me. From what I gather from my users, they do look over a person's trader rating, and also check what previous trades that person had engaged in before.

However, I'll consider adding it in the next version. The biggest issue is just the space that it takes in the postbit template, I just tried to keep it to a minimum.

The % Positive is displayed on the main trader ratings page. Calculating out that number on-the-fly is not advisable when viewing threads. There will need to be an additional column stored in the user table and have the % calculated / updated when the main score is done.

If people don't look at his rating in detail, they may think he's good to go and purchase from him, even though he may be committing fraud.

The solution would be to change the way the ratings are calculated. Instead of just +1 or -1, it would be smarter to do it like eBay does - 100% less any negative marks. In this case, he might have 4 good and 2 bad. Instead of having a +2 rating, he would have a 66% rating, where everyone else would have 100%.

How hard would it be to change the way this hack does the math? I would be very interested in seeing it like this.

Besides, people are used to how eBay works, so this would make a lot more sense to more people.
