Training services

[Blank]

Vast increase in services - which is great! But I feel like there is too many services now. Essentially every thread has 90 posts! Busy service right? No, because at least 82 of them are bumped. Can there be anything like a criteria set for training. I don't mind free training but I think it would be better to be able to create training services if the user has personally got themselves the skill. After all if they're willing to train other peoples accounts with particular skills, they shouldn't have too much trouble attaining that skill themselves?

The main point is that the service section consists of a lot of threads that rarely get used but still get bumped on a daily. I just want to see people offering a service legitimately and offering a fair trade, not just consistent free services just to increase their vouches.

 

People training any skill needs to be completely maxed then? Stupid idea. You don't need to be maxed in any skill to know how to turn on a bot.

I don't see the problem with newbies offering free services to gain some trust/reputation.

So your looking to get around this being as an area to gain vouches?

And you want to see evidence presented of accounts the person has trained on a skill in order to offer that skill?

I could see this as a possibility, I wouldn't mind it in place personally. Skill training vouches don't show much trust at all if the owner has pins in place .

There's no need for "evidence" that someone has trained a certain skill on an account. Most services are botted.

People offering skills should be able to offer the training level to whatever level they have. If it's that simple it shouldn't be too hard to attain the skill level themself, in my opinion it isn't even effort!

I don't have a problem with it either! I'm just saying if you look at the training service section, go on the thread, and look at majority of the posts, they're all bumps with hardly any responses, I think if they could show evidence of themself gaining that skills it would only boost there own chances and reduce competition.

In all honestly, when it comes to vouches the first thing most people look at is Number of vouches and not what area the vouches come to, what are 50 training vouches compared to 5 vouches purchasing gold if the trade is relevant to gold? if anything the person with 5 vouches in purchasing gold should be deemed more trusted within the trade but the number of vouches would make the person with 50 vouches more trusted. I think there should be some form of requirement to start a service!

main opinion is that alright most services are botted, yeah I agree. But just look around the section, this is a section I visit on a regular basis and it's consistent spams on threads. Having requirements = more dedicated users for training. It's not effort to bot it on your own account to meet a requirement, just shows that you want to earn it.

Yeah there's plenty of flaws as it could just be a bought account which they show which would mean they haven't even personally got the skill themself. But I'm just talking about general requirements, that was a suggestion.

I see where your coming from.

I do think we need some way to narrow down the spam in that section.

 

I'm sorry, but we're not looking to set limitations to using the market. We encourage users to check and weigh the quality of vouches rather then the quantity. Thanks for the suggestion
