Chapter Title: The Marketplace Rating System
-----------------------------------------------------------------
The Marketplace Nation can even be used by criminals.
I could have just listed the chicken on the Marketplace Nation, but there was a reason I utilized it separately.
['Taldru' has requested 3 chickens!]
['Lloyd' has requested 1 chicken!]
.
.
You can see exactly who ordered how many.
['ㅇㅇ' has requested 6 chickens!]
['ㅇㅇ' is red-rated. Not recommended.]
Plus, there was no need to even check the gallery logs.
It naturally filters out anyone with a criminal record or trolling history and notifies me.
"Pretty reliable performance."
Ratings are divided into rainbow colors.
Starting from the basic yellow rating,
the more trolling, the redder it gets.
Good, upright gallery users climb to purple.
"Since it's the first day, I should let everyone have their fill."
It's a law that falling from a higher place hurts more.
I figured they'd learn to be careful once they knew the taste.
With the system setup complete, I was about to head to the gallery to check reactions.
- Why aren't any posts going up? [1] Just now
- Marketplace Nation ← How do you use this? [3] 1 min ago
- Let's test the Destruction Gallery [1] 2 min ago
"Huh?"
No posts were going up.
The gallery, which used to see dozens per minute, sometimes hundreds, was completely empty.
Even refreshing didn't change anything.
"I didn't want to resort to this, but..."
In the end, I took drastic measures.

Why aren't you guys posting?
What is everyone doing?
[Recommendations 9999+] [Non-recommendations 1021]
- Ah fuck, got baited again
- No way Judak is posting bait? lol
- You get recs no matter what, so please stop trolling...
"What? Everyone's here?"
Recommendations piled up in less than a minute after posting.
Meaning everyone was still hanging around the gallery.
"But why aren't the reviews coming in?"
Isn't this the Isekai Destruction Gallery, where they go wild reviewing and rating anything new?
- Judak*) Why aren't you guys posting?
More posts mean better reactions and faster good post circulation.
I asked directly, but the responses were just confusion.
ㄴ ?
ㄴ What is this...? On purpose?
ㄴ Dude, you showered us with chicken
ㄴ No, you
ㄴ Judak*) Yeah but what's that got to do with it being quiet?
"Shouldn't there be more posts instead?"
ㄴ ?
ㄴ Judak*) ?
ㄴ Argh
No chat. Dead silence.
"What is it? Is there something only I don't know?"
Posts started trickling in one by one only after I posted.
But even those felt half-hearted.

(Close-up of glossy red seasoned chicken meat meme)
Don't talk to me, I gotta eat chicken
[Recommendations 102] [Non-recommendations 12]
- lololol crazy bastard
- Even Judak won't yield this time lol
"No way they're too distracted eating to post?"
Just like that, posts slowed down even more.
The gallery started livening up again only after nearly a full day had passed.
I'd set a limit of 10 per person.
In other words, posts picked up only once they couldn't buy more chicken.
- Brothers, I love you
- That sauce is killer...!
- Best beer snack ever!
- Brother, won't you sell more chicken?
The dwarves, who ate the most, showed up first in the gallery.
Endless dwarf posts, all debating chicken.
"Did dwarves ever post this much?"
Dwarves do gallery stuff.
But not to the point of non-stop posting like this.
While I wondered, a few hours later into the evening, the gallery mainstream users appeared.
- If it's fucking delicious, mega-rec lol
- Just rename chicken to 'sax' ㅇㅇ
- Ha... it's lit fr
- Felt like I had super happy dreams
[Title: Won't you call me the 'Complete Death of the Chicken'?]
(Traces of 10 chickens' bones meme)
(Full face and hands smeared in sauce meme)
The reason is
I'm basically the Death Knight of chickens...
[Recommendations 3921] [Non-recommendations 102]
- Of course, 'Basement Guard Captain'
- Hey 'Complete Death of Your Parents'
- Fuckin rich bastard
ㄴ Should've farmed some earlier lol

- lololol
- Coming back to your senses?
The elves who appeared next were like.
- Why did I eat gourmet slime trash...?
- I want to marry chicken...
- Gourmet Slime >>> Overwhelming >>> Seasoned Chicken
ㄴ ? Wrong direction, idiot
ㄴ Elf-tier lol
ㄴ Heek
They ditched gourmet slime.
It was the obvious outcome from the start.
I'd never worried that chicken, number one delivery in the modern world, wouldn't go over in medieval times.
"Gourmet slime issue resolved."
Gourmet slime ingredient costs alone were over ten times higher, simple math.
Took a week to wait time-wise.
Had to monitor it so it didn't eat other feed.
"But seasoned chicken?"
Superior in quantity, taste, and time.
In conclusion, success in diverting the gallery from splitting factions with chicken.
And stopped pointless gourmet slime overspending.
"Profits are insane."
Above all, the profitability was nuts.
Roughly 1 million kd.
A whopping 10 billion experience kd earned in one day.
[Seasoned Chicken] - 18p
Plus, store-bought chicken cost a measly 18 points.
But sold for 30 kd each, nearly double profit explosion.
"Pity it's not points, but whatever."
To me, kd went beyond mere currency as experience point source.
No loss at all.
"Do this a few more times and nukes might be in reach?"
No item had ever netted this short-term profit before.
- Judak, you'll sell tomorrow too, right?
- Without you, I'm making a huge decision!!!
- I'm half in trouble lol, can't stop thinking of that red sauce flavor lolol
- Lol, you won't not sell, right?
ㄴ Fr, Judak has no choice but to keep selling
ㄴ Even if it's 100 kd, I'd buy
ㄴ 200 kd, I'd still buy ㅇㅇ
ㄴ I'd sell my house and do naked dance ㅇㅇ
ㄴ Fuck don't do that
Gallery sentiment half hoping I sell more, half certain from the overwhelming buy-in.
Consensus growing that of course I'd have to keep selling.
- Judak*) lol
ㄴ Gasp! Lord Judak!!!
ㄴ Love you Lord Judak!!!!!
ㄴ Judak, you'll keep selling from now on, right?
And I, just as the public opinion said, would sell seasoned chicken tomorrow like today...
"Not selling?"
ㄴ Judak*) Gonna regulate it?
['Marketplace Nation' rating system is now in effect.]
['Marketplace Nation' item purchase limits are now applied.]
Time to normalize.

Trolls exist everywhere.
Trolls are like shit.

- Ah
- Fuuuuck shiiiit biiiitch!!!
- Nickname is crazy bastard lololol
Where there are people, they can't be helped.
No matter blocking, threats, warnings, ignoring—they don't stop.
Why?
"Because they know attention is on them."
Everyone says just don't feed trolls.
But even ignoring them, they exist for a simple reason.
They know it's not real ignoring.
They know you're gritting teeth, trembling, pretending not to feed.
That's why they carry naked female orc memes in their pockets.
- Author) I like attention
ㄴ Fuck you
ㄴ Author) Thank you
ㄴ I'm seriously gonna catch and kill you
ㄴ Author) ( massively bloated belly slime meme)
ㄴ Ah
Whips couldn't stop them.
Then carrots?
- Please stop, I've seen 3 since yesterday...
ㄴ I'll pay you. Sending 100 kd, please...
ㄴ Author) (thinking frog meme)
ㄴ Author) (balding frog meme)
ㄴ Fuck you!!!!!
Doesn't work.
"No way to stop trolls even in the modern world."
So I decided to try something now.
['Welcome to the Marketplace Nation!']
1. Chicken
* Basic rating, yellow and above only
* Higher rating = +1 chicken per week
- ? [Red]
- Fuck this ain't right [Orange]
- Lord Judak? [Yellow]
"The Marketplace Nation rating system will make the gallery great again."
Whips don't work?
Then maybe the whips were too weak.
But I excluded insults from rating drops.
For now, only hates and tactical nukes.
On detection, choose between ban or rating drop.
"No point in over-regulating."
Especially insults.
Not cursing doesn't suddenly make hearts pure.
Like in that one game, they'll just get weirder and sneakier.
Plus, I want to be gallery Judak, not a librarian.
Only banned the universally hated tactical nukes.
"But this isn't enough."
Still, chicken alone couldn't warn all trolls.
So I added a few more.
['New item added to Marketplace Nation!']
2. Tteokbokki
* Green rating and above only
3. Gukbap
* Green rating and above only
"What could go wrong?"
Unaware of the disaster this rating system would unleash.
