Buyer feedback system.

So I've been mainly using AB ever since Nucleus left us. One thing I was thinking about is being able to see the buyer profile's on the feeback. Now they're listed as w*****r or something like that.

Mainly I would like to see what other vendors these people are using and how much they've spent. Mainly I want to know how much confidence I should have in someone's feedback, I feel as though if someone leaves a positive feedback and you can see they've spent $5,000 spread across 30 different vendors, you can feel a little better thinking that this person is leaving legit feedback. If a buyer has only placed 1 order or 10 orders all with the same vendor, there's a better chance of this person being a shill for the vendor and just moving his bitcoin around over and over to pad his stats so to speak.

I can see why someone wouldn't want all there buying information out there for other people to see, but I would love a way to know how legit this buyer is. Maybe being able to see there trust level? Which I'm not sure how AB determines this. Or just by seeing how many different vendors they've used and how much they've spent without explicitely stating which vendors they used or which product they ordered?

I'm not sure this is feasible just wishful thinking.

I'm going to assume that while it would be nice - it also would enable LE to profile, vendors to get upset about people shopping with their competition, as well as generally eliminating some of the anonymity that is inherent in the current system...

In a world where users aren't always smart enough to use usernames that are isolated to the marketplaces, ANYONE may be able to deanonymize them or link them to reddit usernames and reviews (some of which aren't always good.)

I don't want other users to see what I bought and how much money I spent.

It could be done while maintaining anonymity. It would have to be something like when someone has spent x amount of money on x amount of orders from x amount of unique vendors they are marked as quality feedback so all of their feedback from then on will say quality feedback.
