Reaction scores?

[Galacticstar]

How do reaction scores work with vendors? How are they rated? Does it have to do with their messaging back and fourth with members? Lmk

I think your reaction score depends on your overall rep and especially how much your posts are liked.

What he said, how many times members have reacted on your post.
Like, Thanks, Haha, Confused, Sad, Like, Love, Haha, Wow, Sad and Angry

We need a WTF emoji.

Reaction scores are not relevant.

Members provide feedback in their posts. You'll see some common themes in the feedback though there's no standard format.

Agreed! That may end up being the most used on here as of late . Also, having a thumbs down reaction, or a way to track negative reactions vs positive reactions.

Because to your point, someone could have 200 “WTF” reactions, but only 1 “Like” reaction because they post absolute nonsense. Yet other members would sinply see a reaction score of 201 unless they really wanted to dig and see the total # of each.

Hahaha… good point. And a lot of nonsense posts just don’t have any reactions aside from maybe one from someone trying to boost their score, and they don’t read the posts

and then there is the passive aggressive use of emoji vs sincere use. Like when I use the “confused” emoji, I really mean “that’s not what I heard!”

Yeah I forget the rules but I think it’s either posts or reaction scores that dictate privileges in the beginning? Like how many DMs you can send or something. I completely forget. Other than that I look at absence of reactions as “no one wants to co-sign it.” But only if it’s a post with strong opinions expressed.

Yep I’m right there with you on using certain emojis as a ways to express differing opinions!

And that’s so interesting, tbh I had no clue that was even a thing. Someone needs to slap me on the wrist and tell me to go reread the DBG rules like I tell others to do .

At the end of the day, some added chat functionality would be nice, but I get that this isn’t FB or IG we’re working with here, so I can only be so critical LOL

lol don’t feel bad! I had totally forgotten about it too and still don’t remember and it’s probably changed since I was starting out. But I know u gotta put in some work to get privileges which makes sense.

So it’s relevant in a practical functional sense but not really relevant when you’re assessing the credibility of a post. Because I’ve seen likes on posts where someone is just being an asshole to a new member for asking a question. And not an annoying question like “where is the vendors email address?” When I see a passive aggressive reply and laughing emoji reactions, that bothers me. Wow that’s so cool to make someone feel dumb. Thumbs up! Hahaha.
