A Suggestion to Implement Personal Favorite Vendors

You know what would be awesome..... For the site to implement a "favorite feature" for your go-to vendors. (that only you can see in your list) 

Example, like YouTube.... You add a video to your favorites, and only you can just go view all your picks. (depending on privacy settings)

It would make things much simpler and organized, so when browsing your favorite vendors if you had your own personalized favorite list, (just for you to see of course), you go down your list, top to bottom.....

(I came up with the idea, because I often get confused with who is who, when trying out so many, and YouTube had a great idea)  It is basically just like that.

-----It is not just me, I see people writing bad reviews, then later saying they had mistaken that vendor with another vendor... I think this would make a huge impact to keep it organized. This site is AMAZING..... Just throwing out my idea.

Anyone have any suggestions to add on this?

Or do they like this idea?

If I did not explain it well... Just ask. Also this idea can improved upon. But, I think it would be beyond amazing. I hope to hear from you all. Thanks for listening!!

It's not a bad idea @CrankyDude! Though personally, as time has passed, I know who my go to vendors are without thinking. With regards to mistakes on reviews however, members should definitely give us a shout and it can be corrected. Members reviews ARE the lifeblood of the site, we encourage honesty, good or bad. What do others think?

 
I definitely see where that would be helpful to a newer member who is kinda new to a forum and vendors....but I tend to agree with @PTFC that after a little bit of time, I know who my go tos are as well. I think you should take a look at the bookmark function on the bar on the top black bar above your post (on the right next to share link).  it allows you to put in notes that you can either share publicly or not, and your bookmarks go into your profile...I think that, used correctly, that basically functions the same as what you are talking about!  And there you could also put the vendor's name, or what they are often referred to as...which would help with that confusion when using new vendors or leaving reviews.

 
Thanks @painsuck I didn't know that. Believe me I've been on this board for a long time but after doing my 9 months in jail and coming back again a lot of things have changed, I'm still trying to catch up! That's an excellent idea!

 
@CrankyDude  My favorite vendor is the one who has the best reviews that responds to my email first.   Actually I have a list in my brain and I email them in that order.  I start with my favorite and work my way down the list.   I have been working with one pretty much exclusively the last 6-7 months and I start with him first.  If he doesnt have what I am seeking then I work my way down.   The main point for any newbie (I still consider myself one) is to read, read and read.  Go back and read 6-7 pages of reviews and for each vendor you are interested in....Best of Luck and Welcome

 
It's probably a better idea in theory than in practice. I may have a great experience with a vendor and another may not. I think the reviews are the best way to get an overall view.

Shilling is frowned upon and that is already something we have to be aware of on vendor threads. I want members to make their own informed decisions and not choose a vendor because they are on my favourite list. Just my 10 cents.

 
You can also 'Follow' any thread you want. So if you have certain vendors threads you want to keep an eye on just follow that topic/thread. I haven't used it yet but I'm guessing it shows up in your notifications anytime new posts are made in your Followed topics.

In addition to that you can do the same thing with individual members including vendors (not sure about SY) but I know all email vendors have accounts here you can follow.

Not saying your idea of a private favorites list is a bad idea, just suggesting some already implemented alternatives.

  1. S @ soupson: What happened to chem genie?
  2. D @ drdrizzy13: LSU is trash and has always been trash but a night game in death valley is unlike anything I've experienced. Except the first game back to the superdome reopened after Katrina destroyed it. Everybody was crying and drunk as shit lol. All time favorite in person sports moment ever.
  3. M @ meepmoopmeep: Kiffin is a traitor and he and LSU deserve each other since they’re both complete trash
  4. D @ drdrizzy13: yea he's a joke lol. Can't stand him.
  5. L @ Layne_Cobain: You know who rly sucks…lane kiffin 😂 dude is all that’s wrong with college sports or at least a big chunk of it…and he lied about being told he could still coach ole miss in the playoffs
  6. D @ drdrizzy13: Hey at least Ole Miss got in. I can't stand LSU. They really sucked this year.
  7. M @ meepmoopmeep: as an A&M fan I’m content with us missing the SECCG for that reason. Georgia about to fuck Alabama up
  8. D @ drdrizzy13: Yeah I agree if bama loses I think they are out. That would be 3 losses. I don't see a 3 loss team getting in this year.
  9. L @ Layne_Cobain: Yeah that’s why sark was pleading his case about that Texas shouldn’t be punished for scheduling a non conference game against the best team and losing if they hadn’t done that they’d probably be in but oh well way it goes there’s always gonna be a few teams who get robbed or feel they got robbed even with a 12 team playofff…if bama loses to Georgia I’d think they’d be out but who knows
  10. D @ drdrizzy13: Alabama also lost to Florida State pretty bad. Whom Florida beat. I just think if they didn't decide to play ohio state the first game. They would be in with 2 losses instead of Alabama.
  11. M @ meepmoopmeep: @drdrizzy13 Texas lost to Florida of all teams, they weren’t heading for the playoffs anyways imo. At least not this year
  12. D @ drdrizzy13: Texas is offically out of the playoffs they didn't make the top 12. I do wish they were in it. They showed up against Texas AM. But there fatal flaw was scheduling Ohio State for their opening. Which would have been great if they won but they are a 3 loss team now.
  13. L @ Layne_Cobain: Yeah idk about arch I could see him staying with Sark for another year but if he plays rly well in the playoff who knows that is if they get in
  14. D @ drdrizzy13: Man a lot of Saints fan want Arch but I think he said he is playing another year. I would take him probably. But if Texas AM QB comes out or Ohio State's I think you gotta take one if your picking top 2.
  15. L @ Layne_Cobain: Is the qb class supposed to be stacked or thin for draft in April I follow college ball but I can’t think right now I think there’s def at least a few high potential qb declaring
  16. D @ drdrizzy13: Right now I believe we pick 2nd. ATM.
  17. D @ drdrizzy13: At first I figured he might be able to do something but our position players suck. We are playing a rookie QB. O-line sucks. It needs to be blown up. I hope we tank for the first pick
  18. L @ Layne_Cobain: Hopefully you guys maybe find a solid qb option in the draft you should end up with a very good pick
  19. L @ Layne_Cobain: Yeah dude Moore def does not seem like the guy for yall need to clean house
  20. D @ drdrizzy13: I should say our receivers suck
