Just wondering if bringing back a trusted list is a good idea or not?

no. too easy to scam once being on there. you always run the risk of getting scammed on any trade where you go first.

YES I TOTALY AGREE SINCE I CANT EVEN ASK IF SOMEONE IS TRUSTED.

too many people get scammed these days cz its too easy. you need to get like 2 very very very trusted members to be in control of it. bring it back noww!!!!!!

also, the section is not active enough. before you had to do x amount of trades, it's hard to do that now. although I do recommend domC for pins

As callum stated, as much as I'd like it to happen it won't because there is always a risk you'll get scammed. I think it's silly how we can't state if a user is a scammer though, cause otherwise if the user makes a thread again, unless a previous person who was scammed warns them via message.

ive never scammed any trades on ere but i could get on trusted list, do some fairly big trades and not scam then if i got a big trade i could scam because id be deemed 'trusted' if that makes sense lol

If nobody says anything then the person whos scamming is just going to keep getting away with it and continuing doing it, with a Trusted List you can see if there a safe dealer or not.

Edit: Well Kieran now theres the trade limit theres not really such thing as a big trade lol, all we seem to do is junk trade or pins.

Edit: Could also be a sticky where you can write down accusing someone of scamming, say if they appear more than once they would be marked down as unsafe?

Well I woudn't say its a bad idea as HabboxForum has done it before on the runescape bit.

Well really if you did that then anyone could say so and so is trusted/scammer. You'd need a youtube video for ultimate proof.

stuff the list i just think we shud b able to say who scams and who doesnt. overwise more people will just leave this section and unless its just me there is only about 5 decent people here anyways! the rules arent letting us help each over and STAY SAFE! WHICH IS BASICLY WHAT RULES ARE ABOUT!!!

Tbh, the trusted list wouldn't be good because lets say the most trusted person, they have done over 100+ trades and been safe. Now some BIG trade comes along like 5000$ real dollars (just an example) they will most likely scam. Im not a scammer im just saying id scam someone 5000 and get this account banned, im sure most of us would. So its basically just waiting till something happens. Also its good you can't accuse other members because if you just don't like someone then you can call them a scammer. If you wanna warn people send them a PM before they trade the person warning them. ANDDDDDDD if u really wanna stop scammers vid/screenie everything its not hard to do.

I know what your saying, but EVEN if we do screenie/vid what happens it'll still get removed by a mod for accusing for scamming.

and about naming scammers, no because we don't know if it's true or not. just advise them not to trade, thats not accusing

Send the vid/screenie to a Mod/Smod or someone, and send it to people who are going to trade the person next.

Exactly, if you don't like someone you might say their a scammer just because you don't like them. You can still say "Id advise not going first." As thats not calling anyone a scammer thats just saying don't go first.

all the past lists failed, hard. just a waste of time making another one. also, the mods in this section don't bother posting here so they'll be all lazy about it.

Why not just post a video of the trade after.

Even if it was good ;)
