It's the very first thing I check when I’m contacted by a new client, reading carefully (meaning with a pinch of salt) all comments (positive and negative). I also check elsewhere (LinkedIn, Payment Practices, TC, etc.).

Before even considering submitting an offer I not only check the Blue Board but also cross-check for any "tit for tat" entries, especially when there are any negative entries.
