Vendor Rating Polls?

[Apets22]

Instead of just everyone posting their personal reviews about vendors in text format, maybe change the threads to a poll format, so people can rate it like, Excellent, Good, Fair, Poor, or like 5 stars 4 stars..etc etc, as well as leave their own personal text review.

Just thought it would make it quicker to check a vendors rating, rather then reading through 5 pages of peoples reviews.

Just an idea...

Not a bad idea, but should probably be a little more in depth than out of 5 stars, maybe 4 or 5 polls where you can rate Cust. Service, Processing Time, Pricing, Variety, Quality (like if they send you a garbage pack of exotica's or old dry AF)...then you can average these polls to get an average rating. I guess the biggest problem with poll style ratings is that 50% of people are the kind of people where if they had a bad experience its a 1/10 and if they were good it's 10/10. So averages will sway heavily based on these extremists (and also allows vendor bashing in a non-public format).

too complicated, just do it a 1-10 on vendor. if you start adding formulas and crap then ppl will get confused and leave.

Still to complicated, different people put emphasis on different qualities in a Vendor. Same reason we don't have a numerical grade on Shisha. Too subjective for a standard number score. Just take the 3 kinutes and read what actually went on between a vendor and a customer and quit looking for the easy way out.
