Hello
I think only verified users should be able to post in selling and trading. Because multi like sexo wouldnt be able to scam anymore _________________ This user's signature has been disabled |

I would support this, a lot of people get scammed in there it seems.
People seem to do little trades to get rep and then scam a big trade.
I know its kind of a use at your own risk, but people really need to learn to use the meds lol |

Verified members can and will scam from time to time. It's not a proof of trust. It will however make it harder for scammers to make multis.
Just use your brains when trading here.
- Avoid huge GG deals. (or ridicoulusly overpriced offers in general)
- Use a mediator or small increments.
- Don't rush a deal, take your time and wait until you find someone you trust.
- Search their previous posts. Avoid users that spam, both sell and buy fg simultaneously etc.
- Check their reputations. Where they come from, how old they are and so on.
This checklist is worth more than any tag... |

These are all very good points.
Most importantly, use a med if they are available |

reput when they come from a 50fgs trade from old users is not my thing .
by making everyone verifed it will help a lot .
i'm pretty sure they are always the same scamming and making multi .
i dont know why we couldnt do it .
what i was thinking is that the section will be able to be seen by everyone but when we try to post , a message pop up saying we must be verified members to post in
yeah some will keep scamming , but they wont be able to come back on d3jsp thats the good point .
there arent 999 scammers

The idea sucks because:
1. Most users will not send their real life info, pics and skypecall some anonymous forum moderator.
2. The S&T section would die out and lower the activity on this forum quite a lot.
3. Verified users might just as well scam. The tag is not a "trust" tag.
4. If only verified users were allowed to post people WOULD see it as a sign of complete security. I think the scams would be less but probably a lot bigger when they happened.
I would however want to see some restriction in the S&T section, especially for scammer/locked users. Maybe they would have to be aproved by a moderator before they can post there as well. |

As for whom you trade with, that you choice don't feel comfortable with the other member then don't trade or request a med. It pretty common sense guys. _____________________

1 : then send a copy of identity card or i dont know .
2 : well most scammers will stop to scam , at least people will be a lot more safe .
3 : verified users might just as well scam ? not sure about it ... _________________ This user's signature has been disabled |
