There is a feedback system on FD where members can leave a rating for other members.

When a transaction is completed (item take, received or withdrawn), the member who initiated the original post can rate the other member. It is via a 'thumbs up' or 'thumbs down' selection in the chat section of the site. All ratings are anonymous.

If a member clicks the wrong 'thumb' by mistake, they can correct that by clicking the button again, which will cancel the rating.

The ratings last around six months, so they fade away over time. On average across the whole system people give 85% thumbs down and 15% thumbs down.


There is also a separate system-generated feedback facility, where members can see statistics of usage of other members. See Feedback for an explanation of how this works and what information it gives.
