USFine Bribing for good reviews?

[Last Triumph]

Hey just want everyone's opinion on this.

If you haven't noticed, USFine made a topic the other day titled "Notice of soliciting articles on your experience about Usfine". Basically they are asking users to submit their testimonials and then rewarding "those who post excellencet posts" with free gold.

Does this seem like the right thing to do?

In my opinion, they should simply accept testimonials from customers who had a good experience, and want to submit them. To me, it almost seems as if they are bribing users to post "excellencet posts". Even if you didn't order from them you'd be very tempted (I was) to go post a very nice review so you could obtain the free gold.

Anyway, I wanted to know what everyone else thought.

well whatever they are doing, theyre doing it well. Usfine has accumulated 10,000+ customers, many of which people who use this site also? Seeing as scamming is such a large issue now, its even harder to trust other people with getting the trade done and even easier to go to the large companies and pay so much more for just one reason; trust. Good job for them for using tactics like these just because its a business for them, theyre obviously going to do what EVER they can to gain rep/trust and over all, advertisement! I myself have even considered using USfine in the past to buy rs gold/items...

I'm sure they're legit (edit: now I saw that there's lots of complaints, so maybe not ) but I don't like their business practises, for example posting a drop party in the gold selling section. Gold4RS was given a lot of leeway before they went so stuff like this might get tolerated though.

It's a good business tactic to have people come to the website etc. I personally don't like them though. They have a lot of complaints.
