have a thread for scammers to trade in? whats to keep new scammers from comming into the "safe" trading forum, and scammers trading scammers? sounds legit, think it would cause problems, but thats just me, no for me sorry.

but to the being not allowed part, they are tagged, so that pretty mcuh dampers their attempts at any trade because other users will just ignore what ever they offer or post.

well now i can see if the locked / scammer tag, like restricted you from entering the selling / tradeing forum, but that might lead to more people making multi accounts.

I got like 500 multi's here cuh, get on my level.

But seriously, just don't trade with newfags and there won't be scams. I've said it time and time again, yet nobody wants to listen.

Common sense kiddies.

Why just dont allow people that are locked/scammer tagged to post there at all? smile

Like a in-built block derisive

Well there are tons of scammers on this site, that includes old members as well. Avoid new users won't protect you, even if it reduces the risk.

Right now scammer/locked people keep trading even with the tag as people are stupid. Disable their ability to post/msg would reduce the scamming...and perhaps make some of them repay when they feel they need to do some trading here again.

I still vote strongly for the NO scammer NO locked can post in the trading and selling AT ALL

Not to mention if scammer tagged/locked users weren't allowed to post in s/y, that'd give them an incentive to repay. Too bad staff here think with their dicks.

Robert is right about 50% of the Staff members have down syndrome.

You do realize, SwedishGuy, that no matter if you ban scammers/locked users from using the S/T, they can make multi's and proxy the shit out of their IP, right?

You'll never stop scammers from scamming.

We've tried to prevent scamming. You can get 25 posts too easy and it's incredibly easy to make a multi and hide it.

All I know is that it won't stop.

Well take Mckeone as a good example. We discussed the deal over multiple days. He scams me and go inactive for a few months.
Then he suddenly comes on to buy d2keys and sell some game. He claims he was keylogged.

Now, judging his language and behaviour when he scammed me I am 100% confident he wasn't keylogged. But people see his many reps, old accs and still trade with him.
It's completely retarded. Ban them from posting in all sections but the S/A one.

several measurews could have been (and still can) be employed to reduce scamming :

a) disallow locked/scammer tagged users from trading in st
b) disallow using proxies

etc etc

nothing gets ever done so might as well create a mu lti and scam away lulz
