verified/unverified services

they have this over at rsbot and i think itd be nice if the more established service providers were seperated from the newer ones so when new users want to find a guaranteed safe service person they know where to look with ease opposed to trying to figure things out whos trustworthy with little or no knowledge of the forums. New members are the worst at distinguishing between scammers and legit people but they are the most common customers for services so i think it would be a great help to add this to the sythe forums.

 

By service providers, I'm assuming you mean gold sellers. It would be very weird if Sythe had multiple sponsors, all competing against each other. Even though I agree with the fact that new users should be able to trust a certain company without thinking about it, it is a very hard problem to fix.

 

I do not believe he means companies like USFine... I think he means just normal people...

 

common sense would do the users better

they need to assess the loss/gain for the person they're trusting

they should ask themselves questions like:
if they scam, will it be more than what there account is worth?
is their vouches/posts/time on sythe worth what i'm trusting them with?

shit like that develops some nice life skills

 

Everything you said is just extra work that would be eliminated by the suggested idea, seeing as most of us do that as is. Maybe a little bit of recognized, distinguished verification for certain services that are trusted would help new buyers. Post count and vouches does help, and searching the forum does too. So I'm in the middle with this suggestion.

 

This, it's fairly easy to distinguish who's very trustworthy and someone who just got there.

 

You could also chat with the person and see if he's trustworthy(your opinion). However I do support.

 

Being verified or unverified means nothing.

They can still scam.

Vouches show trust.

 

i am indeed referring to normal people

The day everyone develops common sense is the day pigs fly. While we have many many completely ignorant people on these forums it doesnt mean they deserve to be scammed. this suggestion would make sythe a much safer place to do business because right now the only thing new members have to go off of is post count because they dont have a strong understanding of vouches and would easily fall for someone with fake vouches this suggestion is very neccessary.

 

idea from rsbot.net?

 

More work for the mods. Won't happen. It's a fairly good idea, but will not happen.
