I don't really care about Steamrep. In my opinion it's useless. I've never been scammed before on the internet nor in real life and I know what kind of people I can trust. In fact I trust very few people. If a guy wants to trade keys for keys, I let him go first if he has less games than me or has a shitty profile.

I don't think you can increase your rep on SR, you either have no rep or bad rep

This. You can have pending reports or the scammer tag. Some do have a donor tag though, if I remember correctly. Basically, no rep = good.

IIRC they only deal with scam that involve the Steam trading system though, so if someone scammed some game keys, they won't be flagged a a scammer.

i see. so i wouldn't know if someone that i am trading with is a good trader with no negative rep or it is just a guy who doesn't trade at all.

Pretty much, yeah. But if they are registed here you can check if they have traded or not.

Yeah, you're right. It's pretty much just an additional tool to everything else.

I suppose you could technically improve it, as certain admins of particular sites get a special reputation tag. If a person set out to become an admin and succeeded they might appear more reputable than your average user on Steamrep. It would be a strange motivation to become an admin just for that though.
The donator tag might give a person a bit more credibility too, although the cynic in me says that someone could donate just to appear to care about policing scammers when in reality they are one themselves. Or maybe they could just turned rogue after falling on hard times etc.

steamrep is a website in which you could check the reputation of a steam user to determine if they are a scammer. Users who are scammed could report the scammer and SR will verify it before labelling a certain user as scammer. Hope i explained this well

as far as i know, steamrep has a huge backlog of scammer reports... it's easier to stick to reputable traders in forums like this or any other 3rd party site that uses a rep system.

Yes I do know about it, but pretty much only use it to find the steamID64 for someone when I am including them on my blacklist (I keep a text file with reasons why someone is on my list so it makes it harder for them to just vanish)
