[Question] Do you judge people on how long they have been here?

[rosemarycrossing]

It's a question that has been floating in my mind, and I sub-consciously do it sometimes.
I know its bad to judge people BASED on how long they have been joined to a website, but yeah.

thoughts??

plus no hate on new people here <3

i do, honestly. like, if i'm just talking to them or something, then i have no problem. but if i'm trading with them, the amount of time they've been on here will affect how i feel about that, since trading with new/newer members honestly causes me a bit of anxiety.

 

[Koopa K]

Yes. I am not proud of it, but yes, sometimes I do.

 

[Loriii]

For the most part, no. It doesn't matter to me. I'll probably just check their feedback if I'm going to trade with them.

I agree, i get super stressed if the person has only joined like 2 days ago and its a quite pricey trade. Another thing that annoys me is that when they try to bump up pricing or bascilly try to get more out of you. I mean.

I agree and Ive only been on here for 2 weeks. I'm glad the people I first traded with trusted me because I had no feedback on my page. I kinda judge their feedback and their knowledge of the forums. When I first started i didnt even know what TBT was XD

 

[Laureline]

I really only do it when it comes to trading.

 

[TheMisaMisa]

No, not really. I mean I've had this account for a couple years now so it looks kinda old, but I didn't start using it until recently. So my join date doesn't really reflect much. And when it comes to trading, I can just look at their feedback.

 

[GreenLeaf]

not at all
being clumsy myself I'm more worried about me not doing right rather than the opposite oh yes I have anxiety but geared toward myself rather than others ^^

 

[ZebraQueen]

Not really because I always see them when it's a trade because I can't trust them for them to be around my town
Though if it someone I can trust I let them explore

 

[Blueskyy]

I do because if they've done 0 trades and have no rating, I'm not that interested in trading with them unless they seem nice or trustworthy.

 

[ZebraQueen]

So when it's first trade I watch them
But if I get to know them then I'll let them walk

 

[HopeForHyrule]

I don't think it's really judging someone, but I'm definitely more cautious when it comes to trading or the like if the person doesn't have any feedback yet.

But we've all started with zero wifi ratings on here, so that's hardly a reason to potentially react negatively to someone.

 

[Spooky.]

Honestly, it depends. If they act naturally and don't spam post or anything, I don't mind. The only time I'm weary is when it comes to trading. I've encountered some newbies that overprice things like crazy, aren't reliable about trading, and are forgetful. Sometimes even rude. That's not to speak for all of them, but I do hesitate. I try to trade mostly with people who have at least a few good wifi ratings first and go from there.

 

[misspiggy95]

Whenever I trade with someone, or allow someone to come into my town, I look at how long they have been around, as well as their wifi rating.
I have a lot of hybrids around my town (As well as random items laying about) and I don't want to have to worry about anyone going rogue

 

[Cheren]

It's more about quality over quantity, but when I see someone who's account is over a year old I think, "Wow, this person is more dedicated than I am."

 

[iovis]

not really, but it's prolly because I don't trade often.

 

[DJStarstryker]

I sometimes do when it comes to trading, because for newbies you don't know if they're reliable or not. But not for anything else.

 

[SensaiGallade]

If I'm being 101% honest, yes I do. Generally I'm skeptical of new users because they may not understand the rules and whatnot. Don't get me wrong, there are some lovely newbies on the forums. But I am quite wary of new users generally because of my past experiences with them.

I'm sure others felt the same way when I first joined. I had no clue

 

[Reyrey]

A little bit. When I trade with new users I teach them rules and stuff and tell them not to scam or post fake threads.
