Bad TR: red flag, proceed with caution, in particular if more than one bad review
No TR: not a problem as such, depends on how long the person has been around, how many posts, overall involvement in the community
Good TR: reinforces trustworthiness

But I see it as a viable measure of something.
I just have a nice fat whopping zero.
But that doesnt bother me.
But my big question is,...does that bother you.
What does it mean to you.
Would it kill a deal to you?
Does it make a deal to you?
Do you care?
I will sell you a domain, I will buy a domain, but in the end the iTrader dosnt mean squat to me.
But I have lost one cheezy domain buy here because of it, give me some feedback.

It's one indicator but by no means the only thing I care about.
I would be lying if I said itrader meant nothing.
That is a huge factor when I consider selling to or buying from someone with zero rating. If it is someone brand new to the community and selling names that are too good to be true, then it may be too good to be true as in stolen names or names the person does not even know.
As for age of time on the forum, I sometimes wonder why someone has been on the forum for x number of years and has zero transactions. What is their intent?
Or it may be some members who have a trader rating but have not bought or sold on the forum for x years and is here just to add fluff to the community or to be disruptive. Again, what is their intent?
So, short answer long...it has value but I do take every sale or purchase as a one-on-one individual basis.
As long as your money is good you can buy whatever you want from me.

I think you have to look at it. Age of membership surely means something too.
Just look at my +671 iTrader. It means everything.![]()

I haven't been here long, well technically I've been a lurker since the beginning, but I have made some good trades here with a low rating.
Obvious animal lover: BIG green flag.

I am absolutely intrigued with trader ratings, it means too much ;-)
