Solution Posted October 2, 2013 Share Posted October 2, 2013 I've seen enough VIP's and Sponsors scamming past months. It's not really a title that should give you more trust. I'd like to see some more opinions on this. +Would stop scamming, not completely tho.( Would force people to buy VIP/Sponsor first) +More money for Osbot^ It would not decrease the amount of scammers. The most recent scammers that have been banned: 2 VIPS. (lolmandem/Rum) 1 Sponsor. (MattCC) 0 no ranked. It's hard to get scammed by a person that has no rank because hardly anybody trusts them. You perceive scammers as people that have no rank. In actual fact, many scammers have ranks. /End stupid thread. Why you only looked @ the recent scams? You have to look @ the whole scammer archive thing to get to the exact same conclusion? please stop making up pointless arguments, it's just not a good idea.

You have to look @ the whole scammer archive thing The "Whole scammer achive thing", when a user is banned it generally won't show their rank. So it's not possible to look at the "Whole scammer archive thing", so I doubt you have. I've just looked at the first 5 pages, and the majority seems to be VIP members that have been banned/put under dispute. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
melomel Posted October 2, 2013 Share Posted October 2, 2013 VIP/Sponsor+ 1-2 Months of being here+ 200 posts to advertise to sell? Makes it hard for people to scam because they have to build up a rep and once it's ruined, it takes a long time to do it again. Kinda puts a monopoly on it, but I'd rather have that.

wink180 Posted October 2, 2013 Share Posted October 2, 2013 Really you think that trust should be limited to just stupid rank on forums?? Look at my feedback I have done plenty of services for people and I should be ust as trusted as anyone else and also alot of sponsors and veterans have scammed why should this even be brought up?
