If I'm not mistaken, Cyrus Apollo and Juro Kothari and some allies do have a sort of group dedicated towards quality workmanship of this magnitude. There is not an extensive ratings system I'm aware of but it's to promote brand name familiarity and trust. I forget the name of this group, but it's printed at Cyrus's stores, complete with a logo.

Second Life Better Business Bureau? Hmmmmmm *ponders*



The group is called RATE (Retailers Association of Trade and Enterprise). We're still in 'beta' right now, working out the fine details, but basically, in order to display a RATE seal, you must abide to a set of 'fair' rules.. one of which includes not reselling freebies.

Don't smack it too hard! Hopefully, we'll be able to get RATE live soon. Gotta round up the crew and get it moving!
