Thanks for your input, I think EC listen to users after the event when most of the time it’s too late, ie they implemented a new rule about where the widget should be located, a hand full complained so they ‘relaxed’ that rule.

One problem is that they listen to users too much and it causes a lot of confusion and flip-flopping. My suggestion would be to do what you think you should do at first with minimal input.

The site itself may not be as full featured as EC, especially at the beginning but I intend to listen to the users, take polls on opinions etc and move the site forward that way. 2. We have to be realistic, I have and will continue to put checks in place to fight the scripters but as with anything there will be those that script new methods and these will need to be monitored. This site is going to take time, like EC the aim is to be a community as well as an exchange but it will not happen over night. Sixmats

And what will prevent some scripter from building up massive credits? I'm in favor of another traffic exchange, but if you are looking to advertise, CMF is the way to go.

Just no paid ads! Totally agree with the customer service opinion, essentially bad service can be the downfall of any company.
