	Hi there, I am no newb to the freebie scene, but I was curious about how to raise my trader rating, I've been at FLR since May and indeed, I am all out of offers I can really do feasibly.  Any ideas? (

	Pay people to do green for you on sites you need to complete

	But if no one will trade with me because I have no TR and two people with TR under 4 do not get credit...it leaves a vicious cycle P

	That's true.  You should think seriously about whether you can trade greens - even just enough to get your TR up to that magic 4 number.  Either that or offer more money and state clearly that you will pay upfront to anyone with a higher TR than you.  It's risky, but it might be necessary.
I'm facing the exact same situation reversed.  I have tried several times to drum up some refs on FLR and haven't even gotten a bite because I have no TR there.  There is just way too much competition.  I'm thinking about offering myself for a few greens because I need the money, but I haven't decided yet whether to do it here and increase my TR and my rep, or to do it on FLR to establish myself there.
I guess in the end it's a crap-shoot...
