Suggestion for iTrader

[MandalaGal]

Over on ATCsforALL forums, they also use iTrader and the layout of the site is exactly the same as here. But over there, the space to fill in the link to the thread being referred to is "optional" and here it is mandatory. Is there any chance you'd consider changing that to optional? It's a PITA to have to pull up another screen, find the thread, copy and paste it into the blank... it's the one thing that makes me want to delay using iTrader, and I know we're "supposed" to.
Just my two cents.

According to the FAQ, only LMAOs and Exchanges with elements that are HANDMADE BY YOU, are eligible for feedback. Exchanges of storebought items are not eligible. The only way to ensure this is adhered to is to have the mandatory link.

It's not necessary to open another window. Go to the thread you are are leaving the feedback for. Copy it to your clipboard. Scroll through the thread to find the person you want to leave feedback for, left click on their name and a drop down menu appears. Click on iTrader, then click on the underlined link "Submit Feedback for XXXXX" and the feedback window opens. All done in the same window. Try it out and let me know how it works for you.

iTRADERS for trades on AFA is NOT optional it is mandatory...what is optional at AFA is rep points, which are for RAKS and something that someone posting being helpful, insightful or funny. they are also for SWAP cards rec'd...and the iTRADERS go to the swap hostess. and the hostess leaves iTRADERS for the players.

I was only talking about the option of putting in the link to the thread, not what categories required feedback....
Now I see that using itrader isn't mandatory for most of what I've participated in here, but I don't think everyone knows the distinction, because I've received feedback myself for trades that weren't in those categories.
No big deal.
