    Agreed with others in this thread.

    The problem would be, if one of the OMM's get in a temper, they may try and give pay back to someone and scam them. This would then cause the traders to blame Habbox - I personally know I wouldn't scam, however I am totally on Hx's side here - would you really want to trust someone?

    I'll happily be a middleman for people that want one. I'm a trusted guy

    Anyway, as people have said, using MM's are at your own risk, and hab-rs trading is at your own risk, so it's really your own fault if you get scammed (not that I condone scamming in any way).

    I think the problem is, ANYONE can say they ARE trusted, but I would trust very few people - unless they have proof of a large amount of trades. And even then, being such a popular fansite as Habbox you would only turn people away if ANYTHING went wrong.

    Hmm true. But then you need someone to trust you to get those first trades in the first place, a nasty vicious circle.

    Whilst I don't think and OMM list is necessary nor will it work, I think this iTrader that has been brought up could be trialed for maybe 2 weeks? That would give people the opportunity to get some trading going, test how well it works and then start showing who is trusted who isn't etc.

    Well orangeesh was going to MM along time ago but it never happened and i would trust gazzi with my life so tbh its a waste of time even considering an omm its got way too many risks all over it for alot of people

    The official trusted list was removed due to people who were on the list, eventually scamming when the price was right. I also dont think an OMM would be good because eventually they could scam aswell and if they're official, habbox could be held accountable.

    2 weeks is far too short for an itrader trial. If it's going to be implemented there would need to be at least a few months of a trial.

    I reckon iTrader should just be implemented, would help alot.

    OMM isn't a good idea, i would be a perfect candidate yet i cannot prove therefore i cannot become.
