Is anyone else having a problem with this feature.
I click on someone's ref numbers and get zero and some kind of weird message.

Sorry about that, thanks for pointing that out, it is fixed now.


Currently, the trade references has 2 major drawbacks:

1. It's dependant on your email you have set up in your profile.
If your email changes, your trade refs do not go with them and I know as much as anyone that your email address will change, it's just a fact of life.

The fix is to make them username dependant. This requires:
1. Putting your username in when you post (this is all done automatically now, when you post it uses your username as the submitter and you have to put in the reciever's username or their email (which points to a username)) - DONE.

2. Cleaning up all of the old references (DONE) ** Note, I have done the bulk of them, there are still a handful I haven't got done **.

3. Changing all of the little tags where it says (98) or whatever your reference score is to go off of the username instead of email, that's what I screwed up (should be done this week).


2. From a system/resource standpoint, it's a hog.
This is a bit more complex but will be done eventually.

Done! Let me know if you think the page is faster, especially around noon when we're the busiest.
