I humbly propose a blatant knockoff of the eBay Feedback Forum as pertains to E2: The E2 IRL Feedback Forum.

eBay, for those not as familiar, has a system to keep its buyers and sellers semi-ethical and in line by allowing them to add positive or negative comments about a transaction.

Example:

• 17th century ming vases do NOT contain carnival glass, I sue your ass


• Perfect packaging and punctual posting. PennyPingleton, you are positively peachy!

These comments remain on a user's account permanently, and can serve as a warning of bad service/products, or an assurance of the user's honesty and quality.

Comments similar to these on E2 could be placed on a user's homenode, or on a node akin to Everything User Search. These comments will be not on business transactions, but on human interaction transactions. They will serve as fair warning of a noder's true demeanor and respectability.

For example, if you see this comment:

• Flailed his drunken arms and vocal cords around like he owned the damn place, left with a shoeprint on his ass. Still finding patches of his vomit under rugs/furniture

...you'll be thinking "Wow! Thanks to MacArthur Parker's ingenious idea, I can either banish him from my home, or be sure to Scotchgard even those hard-to-reach areas!"

And think of the possibilities if you saw this one:

• Spent most of the gathering hitting on my housemate, guzzling delicious salsa

You'd be able to have the saltpeter ready for those tacos for the next time this randy fellow shows up.

Beware of the noder who can't stop using those downvotes, even far away from the terminal:

• Wouldn't get off my ass about Rutabagas from Planet Arsemongrel, downvoted it in front of my face. My new nickname: Rutabaga. Your new nickname: BITCH.

In addition to the comments alone, I propose the option of anonymity, along with referencing the gathering or event where the activity took place.

Some examples of how a message about you would appear:
