Topic The 22 GTOATs - Greatest Traders of All Time

Chad

* 29-Dec(#1)

I got bored so I went through and found all

traders with truly perfect 100% trade scores. What does that mean? Well, take someone like bill . On the surface, he looks like a great trader, 597 rating at 100% from 735 trades with 620 different traders. Impressive! But wait, when you click on the 100%, you see for Speed and Courtesy, bill is actually only a 99.9%. Shame on you, you slow, rude boy!

Instead, we will look at the truly shining examples that are 100% across the board

Weird. Thought I’d have surpassed @Dusk as GTOAT, but I have not.

That's what I was thinking, what an honor to be on that list, and along side some Hall of Fame GameTZers!

Maybe its better to have some negs because it tells people you aren't going to be a doormat for nitpick complaints.

We can make our own list.

I had 4 trades this year. How am I on the best of anything list? Either way, it’s pretty cool. I’m in good company.

My last non-excellent rating was 17 years ago (Speed: good) back in December 2006. Apparently, I added $2 to make up for it.

Porksta

30-Dec(#17)

IIRC correctly, if you do multiple trades with a user, only your most recent feedback counts. So go make an offer with those people that did not give you 100% and have a second shot!

That's actually where my negative rating came from. Had a poor experience so tried trading again. It went worse.

No dice. The user's account is in abandoned status.

is it possible to not rate someone? You have 1241 unique trades so 7 didn't rate? Or does it really end at 1234. I've clicked several people's names haven't found one as high yet.

Trades can be deleted. I believe I have one less feedback than trade.

If Bill had to mark a trade complete on the other user's behalf (they left the site or whatever) then it won't get a rating.

Or if you have active trades with someone you traded with before I think that temporarily disables those ratings since the system only counts the latest rating and its now in the pending state again.

hahahaha....oh yes, I remember the 'last word' ratings and how it affected us all in our pursuit for perfect scores!

How many of those are still active traders?

Wow! I'm surprised I made the list. I've definitely not been as active as I was in the past.

13 years, 1287 trades with 644 unique traders. I've had 2 less than perfect ratings from guys that I sent pictures to and they were still unhappy. I should be on this list dammit. (I know it's just for fun...I'm not really upset

)

Wow, honored to be on there, especially since I haven’t been super active on the trading front in a long time. I guess it’s fitting that @Rollobobo and @Heavyd814life are #1 and #2 on here, and they just met for the GameTZ fantasy football title, too. That’s a quality list!

Fun season for sure. Looking forward to next year. Hope you won't hold that DJ Moore trade against me and not trade with me ever again! :)

I got close a couple times with a couple users threatening to dock my score due to mail being slow or the item to them was not very good but instead good.

306 ratings, 2 are not all excellent, 1 has speed "N/A" because it was lost in the mail.

from what I gather, N/A means not applicable. Like a digital transaction. So they tried to give you a bad rating but really didn't give you a rating at all.

That's actually really dumb because I literally listed the reason which was the item was lost in the mail so speed didn't apply (as in NOT APPLICABLE, or "N/A"). We filed insurance for the item and it was paid. It's actually a TRUE rating because the item never made it, but the other two excellent ratings are applicable.

It would be really dumb to rate a user's speed based on how long it took the post office to deliver (or not deliver).

I would think speed of responding to messages, speed of sending (after trade penned or after receiving depending on terms of the trade).

The one aspect of a trade a user doesn't have control over is what happens once the package in possession of the courier.

Fully agree - but in the context of the trade, the item was sent, lost in transit by USPS, and never arrived. I'd think it's fair for the buyer who purchased the item, saw tracking in the agreed upon time, but never received the item to leave a N/A because the speed is not applicable as it never arrived due to being lost. He still left an excellent for the other two fields as I worked with him and helped him get the insurance claim filed, but I understand why he would leave the N/A. I wasn't arguing the reason he left the N/A, just the fact that Kommie said "So they tried to give you a bad rating but really didn't give you a rating at all." I don't consider the "N/A" to be a bad rating - on top of it, the buyer left the context in the rating comment.

Here I was thinking I had perfect ratings, but come to find out, one person rated me "good" on speed a few years back and left the site shortly after. I have disgraced my family.

If you have anything like a "World's Greatest Dad" mug or something like that, you need to return it to your children and explain why you are not worthy of such a mug.

It is acceptable to keep this mug if you have it, as long as you are a right-handed drinker.
