This is great! It'll definitely bring the scam count down.

Now bryce will have to be a user for a few months and post every day if he wants to try to scam here again. lmfao

Not a bad idea BUT, i believe we should set a trusted middleman for transactions on virtual items

Users such as ron paul, jason, dan,and a lot more

That would actually work out, just assign official middlemen and the scam count on giftcards etc will decrease

Doom · 07-29-2009, 05:37 PM

Middlemen result in more scams, not worth it.

Do you think we could possibly have only moderators be middlemen? They could mandate trades for a fee and reduce the number of scammers.

0rgasmic · 07-29-2009, 07:35 PM

Great job! Too much scamming going on lately.

Sfiuplayer · 07-29-2009, 07:41 PM

i didnt specifiy if threads that were already there who were posted by new members would be deleted, will they be deleted?

oh and there will be scammers, less scammers though.

incredibad · 07-29-2009, 07:44 PM

i havent scammed yet i am new. not all new members are scammers

Jason · 07-29-2009, 07:47 PM

we aren't saying all new members are, they are just more likely to be scammers.

slavik19 · 07-29-2009, 07:51 PM

not bad..
hope this works

Doom · 07-29-2009, 08:05 PM

We aren't saying new members are scammers, we're simply saying you have to establish yourself to become at least somewhat trusted and entitled to transact.

Also, I don't agree with any middleman's of any sort. Otherwise if/when the scammer uses a chargeback, then the middleman is the who has got a negative paypal balance and frozen account. If anything, they'd only be for digital TRADES, not sales.

you haven't scammed...yet?

NsOmNiA · 07-29-2009, 08:08 PM

ive never been ripped off on CN... but i do like the fact that your taking a stance on preventnng scammers. However this is the internetz... Anyone can be a scammer no matter how trusted they may be, for those of you from Se7en Sins... remeber LGC, and how he made off.

This is why proper punctuation is important.

i havent scammed, yet i am new.
i havent scammed yet, i am new.

incredibad · 07-29-2009, 08:23 PM

Chew On This · 07-29-2009, 11:49 PM

Can you tell me when/how you got that Chew? I know we're having issues with the homepage if that's what you are referring too.

Because you just registered like 15 days ago

Changing your usertitle doesn't make yourself a senior member guys ._.

I didn't change my usertitle. How do you do that. Look it up in ur database or whatever, i am a senior member.

Doom · 07-30-2009, 01:10 PM

I did, And it says you're a registered user, not a senior member.

Well that is weird. Because i think only Subs can change their usertitle.

peacein0000 · 07-30-2009, 01:31 PM

I like the middleman idea too, but since obviously it would waste a lot of time for the middlemen, I think some % of the profit should go to them as well.
Not a big % just something big enough to make it not a waste of their time, ya know?

So it could be like, if you want to be 100% sure you won't be scammed, get a middleman (out of a list or something) and pay them a little money
Or just do the trade yourself without a middleman.

Prolly a stupid idea, but just throwing something out there.

ooobongooo · 07-30-2009, 01:48 PM

Is senior member titled based on post count or time because sharcashkiller isnt a sub and can't change his title.
