Thanks for reporting, it's definitely a bug. Will fix.

Precisely.

We wanted to keep in line with other auction website feedback styles (see ebay).

This would be indeed a very cool feature. We actually know some people (you know who you are tongue) who wanted to try to implement something like this for Android phones. We'll poke them some more big_smile

(Also, if anyone else on the forum has successfully tried something similar (image recognition of mtg cards), definitely we would like to hear from you by email.)

I see. We'll take a look at that smile

Hey guys. I've moved and merged the discussion into the Site Feedback section for more visibility. Please continue the discussion there. There are many great ideas in this thread, keep them coming!

Our current feeling on this issue is summarized in my latest post in the thread: http://deckbox.org/forum/viewtopic.php?pid=14268#p14268

Hello everybody.

The last 2 pages in this thread have been a discussion amongst the guys on the reddit mtg trades community. Since it contains many nice ideas, I have moved it here for more visibility.

Our feeling on the matter is that indeed we need more features to enhance the feedback system. The ones that we DEFINITELY want to implement, and you can expect at some point during the month of april are:

  • We want user feedback to really matter. Feedback score will be more prominently displayed everywhere a username is displayed (like the score of an ebay user). Detailed feedback listing will be present on users profiles.

  • A report button will be provided, so people can report untrustworthy users to our support address. We will look into the reports, and will flag users that ignore our requests for comment. (like: http://deckbox.org/users/GreyCr0ss as discussed here earlier in this thread)

  • Canceling a trade after it has been accepted by both parties will have a feedback score that matters to your total score.

  • People's addresses and personal information will NOT be published anywhere, as it would be a breach of privacy. BUT we will implement a system where we are notified when a user sets a suspicious address. (A suspicious address would be one already used by a banned account, or very similar).

  • The current trade help page http://deckbox.org/help/trade will be clearer and more detailed, to have more info on all these issues

As a final note, we will handle serious feedback support requests for cases of fraud, where people ignore other user's emails and so on. These are cases that result in a ban or an untrustworthy flag. We will NOT moderate incorrect feedback support requests. If a trade goes through, and both people receive cards but one user gets a -1 when he was supposed to get +1, that's not a serious problem. The feedback system  should be self regulating in these cases. This works for eBay and many other feedback powered systems, so it should work for us too smile

We're looking forward hear your feedback on these issues.

I second this, the most (really only) annoying thing for me is to have the price of all my foils listed at their non foil price, or have all versions for which I have multiple editions of a card listed at the same price.

Another nitpicky thing: I use the export feature so I can use this list on other trading forums, and for my foreign cards, I'd prefer to have it output 'Japanese' or 'Chinese' in English rather than those words written in their respective languages. Maybe have an option to have everything output in whatever language the user speaks?

That said, great work, I've been looking for a tool like this for a while, and I can't wait to see the mobile version

The price-per-edition we're currently fixing, should be ready in the next few weeks, card valuation should be considerably easier and better. Sadly we don't have prices for foils separately from tcgplayer, so foils will be still listed at the same price as non-foils for the time being. We have ideas for fixing that but it will take some time...

The language observation is good, and we shall change language names to english.

EDIT: Meh; I suspect deckbox probably just has access to TCGPlayer's low/avg/high prices, and doesn't do any calculations on its own, so this is probably entirely moot.  Oh well...

Exactly right.

We're in the process of using prices per edition for cards that have details on them, and revamping the inventory listing for that purpose. It should help with card valuation a bit.

I messed up too, could you please change my feedback earlier today with Natedizzle from 0 to +1

Somehow the page refreshed halfway through my giving feedback, don't ask me how.

Done.

Both are very good ideas for filters, note taken!

Hey, thanks for reporting the issues. We'll check them out. The inventory addition system is changing with the next update, so your issues should be fixed!

Thanks for your priceless work.

I just wanted to report Planning For War has a wrong rulestext, that you put next to the card (its the text from Recruiting for War) .

Planning for war rules text is now fixed, thanks for reporting.

I just did the same by accident on my trade with preypacer. Can I please get that set to +1?  Thanks and sorry!

Done!

In the interim, before there is any updates to the feedback system, would it be possible to get:
http://deckbox.org/users/GreyCr0ss

... marked as untrustworthy, so others don't get suckered into trades with him?

He never sent cards in this trade:
http://deckbox.org/trades/5235?s=7927

Despite multiple times sending messages on deckbox, as well as sending him messages on reddit and through email.  I don't want to cancel the trade (since I sent my cards), and I don't want to click that I received them (because that doesn't do anything unless he also does that, and, well, because I didn't receive them.)

If this was supposed to go to support@deckbox.org instead, my apologies!  Feel free to delete the post, in that case.


He has ignored our messages as well.  His account is as of now marked as an untrustworthy trader.

http://deckbox.org/users/GreyCr0ss

If you have no hopes of finishing the trades you have with him, cancel them and leave a negative feedback. This feedback will (after our next update) count towards his general score.

Thanks for reporting, we'll take a look at this as soon as possible.

Done, done and done smile

I think we will change the default setting from 0 to +1.

Hey. We're currently working on changing part of the weird inventory-tradelist interaction. It's coming very soon! (And there will be a button to mark all your inventory cards as tradeable) smile

Hello. We're changing things to allow this, but until then, you can go to your tradelist and add them there using the widget. It will automatically add them to your inventory as well.

Ah so we are indeed supposed to report being ripped to you guys. I thought I read that somewhere, it should be on the trading page with a "report this trade" button to notify you guys.

That's a good idea!

Hello. Thank you for bringing this to our attention. We have sent an email to him to try clarifying the situation. If there is no other way to solve this, the trade will be canceled, he gets a negative feedback and gets flagged as untrustworthy, which probably means he cannot trade on deckbox anymore until all open disputes are resolved.

In one of the next updates we will change the canceled trades system as described above. Any trade that has been accepted, and THEN canceled, will have valid feedback assigned, that counts to the user's score, and will be displayed on a user's profile (this also is coming up in the next update).

Yep, that is indeed our current stance on adding new games.

We will come back to you if anything changes though!

The trade list and wish list are different from the inventory though. A lot of us list all the cards in our inventory on this site because it helps us manage cards for decks, and trade, see what we need and where. The trade and wish list being public is one thing, but I think everyone here is not talking about that but about the Inventory, which includes the trade list sure, but is a lot more than just the trade list.

That makes sense. Ok, i've taken note.

Yep, it's an interesting ideea, we shall consider it.

The problem is that making a tradelist or wishlist not public kind of goes against the purpose of the trading platform smile. We would need to exclude a person with a private tradelist from the listings on the card page, from possible trading opportunities, and also we cannot show the 'trading intersection' when other users visit your profile.

Hmm, this is actually not done on purpose. There have been reports of "remember me" problems a while back too.

We will check it out.
