    Vouch spamming

    I've seen way too much of this, people going on to a thread and flooding it with their vouches. Like, I applaud them for earning that many, but not everyone viewing the thread wants to see:

    "My 49 vouches from MMing:
    vouch x 49
    My 38 vouches from trades:
    vouch x 38
    My 57 vouches from user services:
    vouch x 57

    Yeah my msn is [email protected]"

    http://www.sythe.org/showpost.php?p=4977158&postcount=8
    That's a good example. Instead of making me scroll down through all that, he could have just said "If you want my vouches, click the link in my sig", and he has a link. If I was interested in his vouches then I'd click the link. Not expect every single one of them posted on every thread he wants to offer on. I've seen different examples of this, and it's absolutely unnecessary and annoying to every other person who views that thread.

    TLDR: I'm sick of vouch spammers, do something about these cunts.

    I lol'd at the link. I guess it's people's way of shoving their "trust" in your face so that you can't escape it ;)

    Yeah, and that's the part I don't like. It also makes them seem "lol im more trusted" which seems to me like they'll scam more in a way. Like those people that say "i has 2 vouches u go first no matter wut lol".

    I agree. I've put my vouches in my MM application and whenever I am MMing for someone I link them to the thread. Much more organised.

    @ Rushie ; My personal favorite is when a leecher who joins a day prior claims they have been scammed by an OMM and a mod. I usually laugh when I see that.

    Yeah, I've done trades with people like that and they never say which incident, no matter how many times they are asked. Sometimes they block you when you ask when/what site it happened.
    + I left a vouch on your thread, I've been meaning to for a while and that finally reminded me.

    I always keep my vouches in my own thread. And have the links in my sig.
    I don't see the point why these kids have to post their vouches in every of their post.
