I understand what you are saying about providing feedback. The idea behind positive feedback with individuals is that they are more liable to screw you over, because they don't have a name to support as their business. In fact, we have a separate forum for discussing feedback on transactions here :

Don't get me wrong though, I wanna hear feedback on performance. Hey, I got this motor done by so and so. The bike ran great, here's my total experience with X builder. The whole premise of the post originally though was that he was ecstatic that shit arrived when someone said it would.
I'm probably just being stupid, dunno. Maybe my personality doesn't lend itself to liking many people in this game. But, for a tiny demonstration, do a search on planet sand for "cameron" for the last 5 years. Check out how much shit gets said about him, then look for a single reply of his. Look for him advertising he's got carbs, clutches, CPI pipes, or anything at all in stock to make a sale. Ain't gonna find one. Look at how many ads he pays to promote his business, NONE. His work is all the advertising and promotion he needs. I dig that.
Jeff, ain't gonna muddy up a thread that's positive for you any more, I really don't mean you any disrespect, because I know you got lots of satisfied customers. I just personally don't like how you conduct yourself here. To each his own
