Adjustment to rules regarding vouches

[candy]

Vouches, in my opinion should be used to show trustworthiness and reliability, and should not be obtained for sale of free services, names or that of any event where the "vouched" is not placed in a situation where he is given a potential to benefit from a scam. -If you understand what i mean?

In simple, you should now be vouched for doing practically nothing!

Too many a time have i glanced at someone's vouches to find the sorts of

Vouch for Myfiremanishuge, did tut for me really fast!

Lets be serious, if vouches are going to be recognized by people in the black market to show the person can be trusted, then what good will 50 vouches be, which can be easily obtained, if they are regarding getting people through the tutorial, and are then used as accessory to a scam of a level 138 account -Or similar.

Anyone can get anyone through the tutorial, get 50 vouches, boast them on the black market and encourage the seller to go first.

A.K.A - Easy vouches = scammers wet dream.

Exactly. I totally agree with you.

Compare a vouch like this:

Vouch for Bob! He mmed 5M for me and trade went successful! He is very trustworthy!

To this

Vouch for Bob! He gave me a free account He is very trustworthy!

I don't think it's allowed in the first place.

It's against the rules. [/modness]

 

[insanosky]

well i think you need to read the vouches...
im always using trainers... and i just use trainers with vouches...(normally free training) and if the work is good and fast i vouch them ( as a trainer)

OK trainign an account for free does NOT make u more trustworthy... but help noobs to get better jobs like torsos or defenders.. and they can get a profit from that.


a 20m trade vouch is not the same than a free account vouch, BUT guys you need to read the vouches... thats why they have a link so you can check them

The rules say this...
Actually, i just did a search of the rules, i cannot even find anything against self vouching.

Have the rules been edited, or is it in a different location?

Well, now people can self vouch by the looks of it, anyone want to correct me on that?

It is against the rules, but the mods never seem to enforce it.

 

[Louis]

Sale of names should be allowed...considering they're rare enough to be worth a decent amount of money.

Self vouching is against the rules, and therefore = perma-ban.

yeh ive seen a few vouches for he's a friendly guy lol... wtf

 

[DarkSpark]

You shouldn't base your trust on the number of vouches but the quality. I mean if someone is just working on low level chars etc and then you have a level 130 of COURSE you should be wary. Just use your judgement.

using vouches as currency and self vouching ARE against the rules.

vouches as currency = 1 point
self vouching = ban (it is MULTI ACCOUNTING AS WELL)

you make alot of suggestions ^_^ but yea i kno what u mean

 

[rang3r2lumby]

ye i hate this and people who give out free names this should not be aloud

 

We don't support the use of vouches and do not regulate them. How vouches are used and how they are valued is all up to the users.
