who's going first

man...it really annoys me how newcomers say they wont going first...like for me if you got more vouches then me then i'll go first
your thoughts on this ?

 

You should be cautious no matter who it is. The person could have 200 vouches, it doesn't mean you shouldn't be careful with trading.

 

Tbh, as a newcomer I wouldn't go first to people with >50 vouches
But yeah, I would never go first to a newcomer .. they go first or mm/omm

 

Alot of things piss me off. This is one of them.

OT: I would say I agree but what if you have 1 vouch and they have 2...

 

Well, you're in luck. A good portion of OMM's are now free, take advantage of it.

 

Trade with who you want to trade and under your guidelines. If they don't agree, fuck 'em.

Problem solved.

 

i usually goes this way for me.. if i deem you more trusted than me then i go first if me more than you you go first..

 

I would go first if the trade isn't worth that much.
It's just different if it's about a lot of money.

 

I usually never trade with newcomers. Too much of a risk imo

 

Says a new comer >.>?

Anyways, As a new comer I always used to go first. No matter to who it was, as long as they had more vouches than me.

Now a days I don't really go first at all, even to people who have more vouches than me.. They usually don't care anyways I've never had a problem.

This thread [General discussion / off topic] >>>>>>>>>>>>> Market discussion (wrong section lol)

Edit: word of advice for new comers, don't force people to go first. Only trade with some-what trusted members of the community.
Look for donation status (100$+ is usually ok to go first to).
Post count - 500+ is good.
Vouches - Now, these don't always matter but if you're trying to trade safely, make sure they have 50+ vouches, or 20+ with BIG trades.

 

I only trade with very trusted people anyway, Newcomers are generally a waste of time.

 

nao nao peeps we all used too be newcomer ass faces at one point... but ye i typically only go first if they got 20+ vouches or moar than me / donator status thats liek $100

 

I'm sorry, but this right here is INCREDIBLY foolish.

There's people who "farm" vouches by doing a lot of small trades, using MM's, in order to garner a decent vouch count, and then use those to scam some poor unsuspecting individual, only because they "had more vouches."

NUMBER of vouches doesn't mean shit to me personally. It's the quality of them. If you were to look through my vouch thread, you would find a couple hundred vouches worth 1B RSGP or say.... $750-$1000+. Now say I were to find someone with 800 vouches, but their whole career on sythe, all they did was upgrades.... 800 vouches worth of upgrades, or ~450(my amount) worth of 1b+ middlemans, gold sales, gold purchases, etc. Who are you going to trust more?

 

For super small gold trades, I usually do Player Auctions. It's a clean .5 p/m usually.

For anything over 100m, I use an OMM.

 

You're a newcomer, too.

That's very true, but people seem to be more interested in the number of vouches :/

UNLESS you state the amount of money that you have handled, rather than the number of vouches

 

Then you still have to be able to prove it, which is where the QUALITY of the vouches comes in.

 

No matter how trusted someone is, no atter how many vouches he has, no matter how much money he has handled, there is always a bit of trust needed. There have been major scams in the past by people who where thought to be 'trustworthy'. If you don't trust the guy, use a (O)MM.
