Membership Sales forum gone.

What do you think of the removal of the Membership Forums?

Doesn't bother me I don't use pins.
 
Just to be clear with you, greg, Sythe.org is a free forum which allows you to transact with other users. You should be happy that you were able to trade amongst the community for absolutely no charge. Our forum has absolutely no obligation to provide these services, they are done out of goodwill.

Yep, and people donate out of good will too, so it goes 2 ways.

If people did not donate, i doubt this site would still be here
 
My Solution

I say Like OMMs
Pin sellers must prove there legitimacy to Admin+ or global+ or whatever.
Then they receive the rank legit pin seller or w.e.

The argument of not wanting to support illegal activities is bullshit in my opinion. This community is all about illegal activities. Selling "stolen" goods is what sythe is best at. Think about it all rsgp is considered Jagex's property along with all the characters. So in a sense we're selling stolen goods already in Jagex's eyes.

Now I want pins from legit users, but if I happen to buy one from someone who is fencing then it is my fault in participating. I'll then suffer the consequences just like if I was caught for buying an account or gp.

Now if you really fear it the "illegal activities" then just have pin sellers prove their methods as legit, and continue letting them sell me membership for $2 less than the actual cost because I'm a cheap bastard.

There is a difference between Jagex's property (a virtual game) and stealing money from an in real life phone company

Sythe already stated that he will open up the membership sales for persons who can prove that they have legit membership for sale.
T_T
 
Where can I find that info?

Here:

To my knowledge the vast majority of RS membership sales are ultimately sourced through illegal wholesalers. The reselling of stolen goods is called fencing, and is both illegal and against sythe.orgs rules.

I would, however, like to keep the membership sales forum if there is going to be legitimate trading in there. If you can make your case to me that your pins (or any pins sold on sythe.org) are legitimately obtained (at their source) I will be happy to reopen the sales part of the forum to you.

To be perfectly clear, I have not closed these forums because membership trading is inherently banned, but merely because it is currently overrun with illegally sourced pins.

No there isn't.

Virtual theft is still theft.

btw phone companies are virtual too btw. It's just virtual audio instead of virtual media in general.

He stated it, but there was no action.

There is a difference in the two.

Not sure if srs or just newfag...
I see why it was done. Pretty clear.

Not happy but I will move on.
 
Wow. It was a long and successful road, GF membership sales. Time to place emphasis on other market sections.
 
btw if it was removed because of fear from phone companies shutting down Sythe. Then Runescape can do the same, because of the theft involved.

He is stating if there is proof, there will be action.
Learn to read.

Membership Sales still isn't up. You have yet to prove your method, there is yet to be action. So I have the right to speak my fucking solutions. Get off your highchair. I can fucking read, but when there has yet to be an action, then my suggestion are valid. Learn what a debate is, or shut up I swear you kids piss me off with your nagging. Just because one suggestion was taken, and the owner says something doesn't mean I can't post what I think.

Also seriously? I said he stated something, but there was no action.

"there will be action" doesn't mean there was any action

learn to read.

and stop being a flame baiting ho.

We both know that you implied he wouldn't bring it back in your post so don't try to bull shit.
I'm a kid, yet you sit here flaming me.
Get off Sythe, now.
 
i think this update would effect finn skele and (sorry always forget the 3rd person) Although their sales are done on their own personal site last i checked.
 
Solution: If you want PINs, buy them off other forums. Sythe is not the only place where it is sold.

On-topic: It does not bother me. It's still obtainable.

I don't know if anyone else noticed but they changed it from Runescape Blackmarket to Runescape Markets.... This might have to do with Sythe not wanting to endorse its self in Illegal things anymore....

But to be honest, Runescape Account selling and Gold selling is also Illegal according to Jagex Rules etc... So why not remove those too >.>...

The membership sub-forum was where some very trusted people on Sythe started out (e.g. Skele Master)... So taking it away, ruins the opportunity for other individuals to prove themselves in this community.

We're not selling Jagex property, we're selling our time that it took to get said items and property ;).
 
Hm. Isn't it clear? I guess most of Sythe members who were buying/selling pins will hop to other forums, the rest will either give up or buy membership "legitimately". In my case it's the first option, I won't use Sythe too often anymore.

Because no one gives a shit about Jagex rules / tos. Just because they don't like something doesn't make it illegal. Using *******s and selling pins from them is.
