Say “Thanks” to good drivers
Wednesday, May 2nd, 2007Thanks once again to all you energetic Members who have provided us with your invaluable feedback.
One of the biggest things that you are all wanting is a way to positively reward or thank all of the courteous drivers out there.
We couldn’t agree more - thanks for letting us know how you felt.
Obviously, the core functionality that the site currently offers, revolves around recording negative incidents, but in a way to achieve a positive outcome - awareness. We always intended to introduce a positive rating system, just that it wasn’t the first thing that we built. And to be effective, it needs to work in a fundamentally different way than the current incident reporting system. Avoiding abuse from fake Members attempting to “reward themselves” is critical.
We are pleased to announce that “we have the answer” and are working on something very, very exciting and powerful. We won’t say any more at this stage, but our coders in the Rate the PLATE engine room have been very busy with the Japanese word “kaizen” in the back their minds - persistent improvement. We simply cannot wait to release some of the new functionality.
Please check back soon.
Best Regards
The Rate the PLATE Team.
