I'm beginning to think that nanog.cluepon.net needs "good guys" and
"bad guys" pages so that we can all make doubly sure we're not doing
business with spammers (and just as importantly, a community resource
for reviews of used equipment vendors). Thoughts?
I like the idea of a 'these guys were good to me' page, I'd be a
little hesitant (yes, lame) to call out folks unless someone's ready
to deal with the 1:1000 crazy that says someone on cluepon slandered
them (libel? I always get them backwards).
I like the idea for a page that recommends folk, but would suggest
dating the comments (so that someone who *used* to be good doesn't have
the same cachet as the person who got added yesterday). There'd also be
the need to make sure, somehow, that recommendations were not (shall we
say) motivated by something other than altruism.
On the other hand, there doesn't need to be a bad guys page. The
archives are public, and mirrored multiple times. Google and Yahoo will
provide that service for you, free of charge.
