What is an Established Member?
In an attempt to encourage new members to participate in the forum film discussion we've set a 5 post minimum before you are allowed access to the 'Looking for...' forums. Rather than post 5 meaningless additions to meet the requirements, do please introduce yourself here and try to engage in the lively debates with other users. Thank you. Consecutive irrelevant posts aimed at merely reaching the quota will likely result in your account being frozen.

iTrader
The iTrader function allows you the opportunity to leave Ebay style feedback on your experience trading with another forum member, or to view previous comments left by other members. To enter iTrader, click on the link below the users post count or view their profile by clicking on the username.

To leave feedback, enter iTrader then click on the Submit Feedback for <username> link. You now have the opportunity to select if you were a Buyer, Seller or whether the transaction was a trade, your experience with this user, and to leave a comment should you wish. Please do not leave negative feedback without due consideration, attempt to contact the member first and seek a mutual resolution.

This is for genuine transactions only. Do not attempt to massage your rating by creating additional accounts as it is highly likely this will be uncovered. When feedback is left on your profile a Private Message will be sent alerting you of new feedback. Should you have an objection to any posted feedback please use the Report Bad Rating link to inform a moderator you contest the report.
