Trading

[Chad]

Trades should only be able to be accessed by people with Bronze UG, Higher Undergrounds, or other. Not by regular members.

Why? There are several users that keep scamming people for money and keeps getting banned. Banning isn't helping so it's time to step it up to prevent the scams and loss of money.

This is a perfect idea! And while where at it can we re-structure the trading section? It is kinda messy and difficult to get to the right place. Something like this.

Though I wonder if that happens if it will detour people from joining?
I agree with this though especially Thomas' suggestion.

[Taz]

Good idea and the only scammers in this forum are people with 50 posts and under so this might work alittle.

The only people that are joining are the scammers that keep getting banned for scamming and multi accounts. If they figure out it takes 50 posts just to get into trading to scam they'll probably scam once or twice more but if they keep getting banned then I doubt they'll want to post 50 times more per account, just to scam more.

Also; I support Thomas idea's as well.

I agree but a better idea is not to hide the trading threads but require an amount of posts before selling or buying. They will still able to lurk.
Edit: NVM coz then PM will have to be limited also. Which can be good in a way.

I agree with both Chad and Thomas suggestions.

Edit edit: Just FYI not everyone in ug or higher trades which mean it can suck for the seller.

Than people better start posting. I don't trust anyone when selling nor buying accounts or other things unless they have 250 posts or more anyway. This is just a suggestion to protect most of the users that keep getting scammed.

Or use thomas's organization, but put the itrader thing back.

So your saying you would rather spend over $20 on an account, get scammed, put a negative iTrader for the user although he is just going to get banned and make a new account and do it over again rather than get what you paid for? Have fun with that.

News flash,use a fucking middle man. Dont complain about getting scammed if you dont use a middleman of some sort.

Also, newsflash, not everyone that is here is here to scam us. Some are just here to trade items and gold for money or other games currency. its not all about scamming us.

News flash, uneducated marine is uneducated.
What Middleman do we have huh? The one that just logged in today after not logging in for the past few days?
Oh, we can't bother you cause you have so much work to do. Google is a great MiddleMan but he actually has things he is doing.
Arti is always busy. Torian is always playing games and stuff. I can't Middle man worth of shit.

Another news flash, you are not the one who decides what happens to this forum nor the updates that it gets.
Notice, it's in bold so you can easily read it.

How does me being a Marine have to do with this at all? You must be terribly uneducated if you think holds any bearing at all. Oh, and by the way, any person you trust can be a middle man, it doesnt have to be an official one.

I cant middle man because I have to coordinate operations and plan things for the next 6 months, oh and I dont have a fucking paypal, as I have told anyone that asks.
what do you do all day? ever thought of volunteering to be a middle man for a trade? probably not.
Being a middle man is earned by doing what? Oh, right, being trusted as a Middle Man before hand, whuld have thought.

And by the by, I know that I don't decide what gets added and what doesnt. I know my place. Maybe you should know yours.

Your common sense is fail. Hence why you are uneducated. I wasn't pointing out that just because you are a marine means you are uneducated. You are in-general, uneducated.
The only people I really trust on this forum are people that I know and talk to over msn. I just talked to BoobearSH why I can't Middle Man. Let me post the conversation.

Boobearsh DO NOT IM ME! ONLY PM! says:
*Lol
*Why can't you MM?
*There is nothing to it...
Chad says:
*Because people piss me off
Boobearsh DO NOT IM ME! ONLY PM! says:
*Well of course they do.
*That's what people do.
Chad says:
*And If I get pissed to a certain extent the Middleman (me) would walk off with the money and items and such

Maybe no one wants to be a middle man because you have to put up with people wasting your time trying to get someone to send shit first. I know, I've tried to Middle man for Google once, took about 2 hours and the guy took off with half of Google's money.

Oh, sorry is this thread spam now? Perhaps you should do your job and lock it.

Its not spam, you are arguing your point.

And patience is a virtue, mayhap you never thought of the fact that Google has tremendous amounts of patience when it comes to foolish people.
My general education is not sub-par, it is par at least.

Maybe you should talk to more people on MSN then. Maybe then you can stop being so scared and have more options.

Always, no matter the situation use a MM, pick an UGS if it comes to that.

If need be, and it is imperative, I will MM for you. It might have to wait a little, but I will do it. I tell anyone that asks, that can compromise, that I can and will, but that time is a factor. Once for the crowd, your facts =/=straight.

is a little high for people just joining, i mean i look here daily, but finding places to post is limited since a lot of boards are dead or dying, unless they are selling/trade ones, in which it is spam to post unless offering. though overall i agree there should be some sort of more strict requirements for trading.

Wondering, did you read what was before the bold selection you highlighted?

Notice the I.

[takoyaki]

Chad, I did all I am saying is those are high expectations, though i understand the safety aspect but a lot of people don't post much anymore. was simply stating a lot of people may be trustworthy and not have the posts, though i agree most probably aren't

[Torian]

Another possible solution is to recruit more MMs that are indeed active. For each post done in the trading section, it then becomes locked straight after posted. A middleman would then enter the thread, reply to it letting buyers know that they are watching the thread and that the buyer should use a middleman or else, and then the thread can officially open.

It's very simple, we just need people that's up to the task.

[jimzip]

well dont every one want some way to kill the buyers
