    Everyone has the voice, you just drown it out. Which is good, thats what all middlemen do. I do too. I haven't scammed, and neither have any official middleman as of yet. Just becuase you have the voice doesn't mean your a scammer, i think thats what you were thinking i meant. It's not. Ever watch cartoons/shows were a charector has the devil on one shoulder and a angel on the other? Both telling the charector to do things. Devil of course being bad things, vis versa.

    Are you saying that i do not have a right to input my opinion?

    I resign from being a Middleman.

    Taking everyone elses ideas and repeating them multiple times in one big post is what I do best. ;)

    It also gives me an excuse to put my username at the end, so when people don't want to read my page of stuff they can just scroll till they see it and move on. I wouldn't do it if I didn't get a laugh out of it every time someone complains. :p

    I'd be curious to see some input from Sythe on this thread.

    EDIT:

    That's hippocritical. Why wouldn't Mods be equally as inclined to abuse their ranks? How about Frequent MIRC users? Highly trusted? Donators? People with high Post Counts or late Join Dates? All these things can be abused if people want to scam before time is up. Should we take it all away? No. It still wouldn't make a difference.

    Not if your "opinion" is actually your perpective on the temptation to scam in terms of an elite group you've never been a part of. Not trying to flame you in any way, just stating not all people consider your post an opinion.

    I resign from being a Middleman.

    Global moderators have the exact same urge any MM would have. Saying to use a global moderator, and not an official MM is a completely biased view.

    Secondly, like I said before and will say again.

    THE INITIATIVE TO SCAM HAS NOT INCREASED AT ALL!

    MMs still have the EXACT SAME LIKELY HOOD TO SCAM AS THEY DID BEFORE.

    For the people who are dumbfounded by that statement, I'll explain.

    I'm going to be using "points" to describe my point, not the most advanced way, but bare with me.

    Alright, let's take let's say 2 months ago. The more points you have, the more likely you are to scam. You can have a max of 10 points.

    Now, MMs let's say would be 1 point. The rest of the Sythe community, would be a 6.

    So, MMs would have a 10% risk, while others would have 60%.

    Now, this update comes along. MMs go up to 2 points, while the community goes up to 8.

    Now, MMs would have 20% and the rest would have 80%.

    This is all just random values, but I'm trying to make the point, that as the MMs chance to scam did increase by a small number, SO DID THE ENTIRE SYTHE COMMUNITY. Therefore we were just as likely to scam before as we are now.

    Wasn't the best example, I know, but I hope you get what I'm trying to point out.

    Mountain Drew wasn't banned for scamming you twit, try getting your facts straight.

    Secondly, a MMs price, since you say everyone has one, would, hypothetically speaking, increase or decrease just as every single other person's on this site would. Meaning, the chance of them scamming DIDN'T increase at all, they are still at a much less risk of scamming than normal members.

    I resign from being a Middleman.

    You basically proved my point when you were trying to argue it. Then why not run with 50M if they planned to scam from the beginning. EXACTLY, not a single MM has scammed so far, and none of them "planned" to scam because of this update that ISN'T EVEN IMPLEMENTED YET.

    Like I said before, if you can give me an honest straight up answer, that less money is being scammed than would be if there still was officials, then fine, this decision was good.

    BUT OH WAIT.

    0 GP has been scammed by officials, yet millions have been scammed by people who went WITHOUT an official.

    Now tell me, how has this decision "saved so many people from getting scammed". As none have, and none would of.

    Also, by telling him to fuck off, regardless of what he said, you are flaming him right back.

    You're a lost cause to lunacy.
    I can't be bothered to argue with you over something trivial, but to summarize, I'll say:

    'I do not personally have a 'voice' telling me to scam.'
    I have won this confrontation. Thank-you.

    Don't you dare spam my thread.

    Don't you dare spam my thrad, and don't dare speak to him like that for absolutely no reason.
    As far as I can see, he hasn't insulted you in any way, shape, or form, before your attack.
    Don't post on my thread again, unless you're contributing to the subject.

    LOL AT YOU.

    I know at least two past officials who have scammed and proven to have scammed, and who are you to say that none of them are corrupt? I know for a fact not every scam is reported ;).

    I'm talking about the recent officials, who were deMMed purely because of this update.

    None of them have scammed, and none of them would of.

    How about all of you stfu? Finnis and the rest of the officials deserve the trust and none of them have scammed =/

    What makes any of you think they're you personal bitches? They get asked to MM all the time so just shut up and try to help them out because I'm sure they're much mroe stressed then you are.




    And guys, stop spamming on this thread. I will eat your babies =P

    Like oh emm gee, we're just trying to get our post count up in here before we use it to call ourselves trusted in the MMing forum, duh...

    -------------------------------------------------------------------------
    [Begin more detailed, pointless rant that the above comment came from]

    You say that as if Community General was filled with anything other than pointless stickies, bad ideas, hello/goodbye threads, and pointless rants all made so that we can post a sentence or less without reading the title let alone the first post. I automatically write "Support" or "Good idea" in every thread in here (at least once, on a good day three or four times per thread).

    Oh, but I make sure to mix in "wow u guys r dumb retards this is dumb i cant beive tht ur so stupidd" for idea threads, "k thnxs for the advise bro" for tips threads, "hi even though I've never seen you before and you're obviously wishing happy holidays to the person you knew from years ago I'll post the fact I don't know you anyways!" for hello threads, and my absolute favorite, universal for all threads in here "roflmfao badidea hi bye nicetips agreed imanidiot and omfgijustgotfingscamzor857ed!#@(^$#@".

    I mean, c'mon, cut us some slack here! Now that Jagex is watching even closer for unbalanced trades, and because of this we're less likely to be employed for high risk trades (if we even bother in the first place) we need SOME way to convince people to trust us so we can scam them (especially because Jagex makes it harder to sucessfully scam now too) now that you've stopped us dead in our tracks by removing the only good way of identifying trustworthy people on here...

    EDIT: z0mg 1 h4ve 204 posts now!)@*$@ Maybe I should post the phase "oops, double post" to make it 205 even though you can delete a double post...

    [End pointless sarcasm, begin experienced highly vouched MM thread]
    --------------------------------------------------------------------------

    You folks do a good job, it'd be no fun at all if some new idiots didn't bitch about something completely meaningless and very shortly moot as if reading this was all you had to do all day (which it's obviously not, as you're supposed to be in the Report a Scammer forum 24/7).

    SMR, was that directed at me?
    (Or any number of people including me?)

    When you say 'will help you get your way,' I'd like to point out that 'there is no way.'

    Secondly, this thread wasn't designed for these confrontations - it was merely written to inform the little mites demanding I middleman for them, that I am NO LONGER middlemanning.

    (Despite the thread, I've still had 6 PM's demanding I middleman.)

    This isn't to argue. It's called commenting on an issue and showing other views than just your own.
