First and foremost, this forum will NOT serve as a place to argue or discuss the companies listed within. so new posts will not be allowed here...end of discussion. new posts will be deleted immediately by admins/moderators. If you wish to discuss or reply regarding the business, pick one of the threads listed in another forum.
How this will work:
1. A thread will be started in here titled for each business name discussed here on the TUGBBS online forums (note this will be a massive undertaking so bear with me/us while we populate it). Inside each thread here will be a link to any and all current and active TUGBBS threads that discuss that company or business for quick and easy reference.
2. a poll will be created for each thread that all users can vote in (note votes will be public). the ratings will be grades just like in school. A, B, C, D, and F. based on these grades, the TUGBBS forums will establish the overall grade or rating of said company.
note that each and every one of these votes is submitted by individual forum members, and are not the votes of TUG or TUG employees. Just as with any other post on the forum, that post is the opinion and the opinion only of the poster. We merely provide the medium for you to express your opinion and conduct a free and unbiased discussion of these topics.
Said company will recieve its "rating" after it has at least 10 votes. this rating of course will change as the voting results change...the overall "tug rating" will be an average of all the grades given by TUGBBS users.
Hopefully this will develop into a fantastic source of information for all users of the TUGBBS forums and anyone else who finds us on the internet!
3. A separate thread just under this one (will be stickied too) will exist for users to supply names of companies to be added to this list (on top of what we add on our own in just regular searches...remember there are literally hundreds if not thousands of companies, so this wont happen overnight).
If you do submit a company, please do the appropriate search and provide the links for said company so we can add it quickly for you! If you do not want to do this publicly, feel free to submit a pm or email to me and ill put it in the queue to add!
4. Please note, that while this system is intended to promote the truth...given its design its open to shills and such. with that said, if you vote in this poll and have less than 10 posts, or just registered right before you voted...your vote wont count.
These ratings are intended for people who have had actual experience with these groups, not employees of said companies. or employees of rival companies for that matter. thankfully you all are very easy to identify.
