Using Heatware with Geekhack

[mkawa_]

1) Please enter "other.." on the drop-down and enter "geekhack" in the text box as the name of the forum when you leave feedback. If we can show them the volume of business we do on geekhack, they will add us to the drop-down list

2) I've added an entry for your heatware user-id to your forum profile. This will cause a link to display under your avatar (which looks like this: ) that links to your heatware evaluations page.

How do I obtain my heatware user-id?

Glad you asked! Your user-id is the number which follows the string "id=" in the arguments to the heatware php app. As an example, here is the url to my heatware evaluation page: http://www.heatware.com/eval.php?id=67134

Hence, my heatware user-id is 67134, and that is what I will enter into the new profile field.

Thanks folks!

Ok cool, I was about to ask or suggest something about heatware.

iTrader (the previous feedback mechanism we used) will NOT be coming back.

That blows...on to heatwave now

[mkawa]

tbh it should have been this way from the beginning; heatware is the de facto standard feedback mechanism for every other pc enthusiast site. there's simply no compelling reason for us to have a separate feedback mechanism, particularly with our extremely low loss rates (basically nil).

Can we expect some kind of better integration than a link in our sigs?

[mkawa]

that's how everyone else does it. what kind of integration would you like? keep in mind that heatware does not provide a public API.

how about: adding it as a profile field, which displays under avatar if entered

[DanGWanG]

Can people leave me feedback? I will return the favor!  (*If you have ever bought/sold/traded with me)

Same here, I have traded with many folks, both as a seller and buyer.

[demik]

[mkawa]

[mkawa]

AND SPECIFY GEEKHACK AS THE FORUM!!

[DanGWanG]

^Very nice.  Added to mine =)

When you hover over it, it makes a little underscore thingy.  Not worth fixing if it's a hassle, but my OCD wanted to let you know

[mkawa_]

i saw it, and it's an issue with the css, but everytime i look at that thing i vomit, so i'll fix it tomorrow when i patch up the repo with the changes i made live tonight

Oh god I've purchased so much the last 3 months. Giving heat ratings will provide me with something to do at work tomorrow.

How about group buys? Each person is allowed to give you heat, and can/should do the same?
