    Fake vouches

    Can we get people infractions for posting vouches that don't include 2 sides of a trade? I hear a lot of people complaining about "weak" vouches lately, and I'm wondering if it's cracked down upon?

    i sure hope so, fake vouches are almost always a sign of a scammer. and half-ass vouches don't help make people more comfortable

    I certainly believe people posting fake vouches should be a bannable offence.

    Thank you all for proving you did not even read the question.

    The answer is:
    No, it is not a bannable, as a vouch is not a requirement after a trade. HOWEVER they will ban you if they find any link between the vouching account and your account.

    Is that really a worthy thing to post?

    And when you say "weak vouches" are these like for buying/selling things that cost little or no money at all or ones from leechers etc?

    I don't understand what you mean by "weak vouches". Vouch aren't required in trades and any sort of fake vouches are a bannable offence.

    Fake vouches are bannable, like someone sais: i'm adding you to msn.
    and someone quotes it and changes text to: vouch, went smooth.
    thats bannable.

    They already are to my knowledge.
    A bit more attention to detail and a lot more would be gone.

    Im not 100% sure what you mean by fake, but I think you're hinting at
    people making multiple accounts and just getting post counts up and then pretending at trade.

    I know my two current vouches seems a little bit 'fake', but I can assure you the trades were legit.

    I thought exactly the same thing.

    1-5 Skill training, should it be even vouchable? it takes less than 5 minutes for every skill, people will get like 10 of them legitly which would took like 1 hour or less, and then they're acting like trusted.

    It would be much too hard to make a line for what you can vouch for and what you can't. Its just not worth it and makes vouches more controlled which we really do not want.
