[denied] Require proof of quests OR remove proof of membership

[Section Rules] Old School RuneScape Accounts

"Threads MUST display the follow information or they will be locked:
A screenshot of the account's levels* (Example) (Example RS3) - You may only blur up to 5 stats and the total level. (Example)
A screenshot of the account's wealth [If specified] (Example) (Example RS3)
A screenshot of the lobby screen [If specified for membership] (Example) (Example RS3)"

We already require people to show proof of membership when claimed. Membership days generally represent less of the account's net value than the number of quests completed. Yet we require proof of membership, but not proof of quests. For the sake of consistency, let's require proof of quests as well.

This doesn't have to be extensive, but say for instance someone claims 'barrow gloves completed', let him show a screenshot of RFD being completed. Or when someone claims to have "Zulrah ready accounts", let him show a screenshot of regicide being done.

Edit:

if no support, then my suggestion is to remove for the proof of membership

 

Yeah fair enough, when I wrote this I had in mind "it's either both or neither".

 

No support, no need to overly complicate things.
Imo the only required things should be account owner status/warrantry, as the value of everything else depends entirely on it

 

If you say no need to complicate things: how do you defend having to list current Membership but not quests (when claimed)? What makes one more economically relevant than the other? I'd say, requiring both or neither simplifies things.

 

I don't agree with it, account rules never made much sense

 

Feel free to propose a change to the things that don't make sense to you...

 

Sure will once @Sythe start paying me.

 

If you think posting suggestions is pointless, then what are you doing in this section

The idea is that we all benefit from a better market that is also regulated in a better way

 

I think screenshots of quest lists are a good idea.

For instance, buying a NMZ ready account. You want to know what Quests are completed in order to know what Bosses you have to use in the NMZ dreams.
Something like this would be satisfactory and is quite easy to make - however with sellers who've a lot of accounts for sale, could become tedious.


The proof of membership I think should be removed unless of course the person selling the account is claiming there is a significant amount of membership remaining.
I'm selling an account that had 14 days membership at the time of posting; who knows how much will be remaining if/once it sells. Probably 0 days remaining, leaving me open to the expected "take $2 off the price for the membership".

 

this sums it up pretty much, also never seen a problem like this and it would be stupid as a seller to list something the account does not have. in the end the trade would end badly

 

Questlist? No. Items annonced/advertised.. Yeah.

 

I don't see a problem of posting the picture of the quest that unlocks certain builds

 

No support.

Sounds like a shorter and simpler version would just be "If you advertise it as having something you should show a photo for proof". This encompass everything from specific levels advertised, to quests, to gold, items, untradeables, etc.

Requiring proof of membership is only a problem if you say it has active membership still. No membership, no proof needed.

 

If I'm buying an account, I'm more inclined to use the supplier with photos over a strong explanation in text, but only because I best retain information visually. Show me b-gloves in the inventory and I'm happy. Keep in mind though, the less information/photos you incorporate into your thread, the more questions the buyer has before purchase. In support of leaving as is.

 

I have always posted a screenshot of all quests for every account i've sold, which is nearly 20+ by now. I see it like this, if you claim to have x quests done, you need to show the completed quests, or the quest rewarded items. If you don't advertise x quests, then i don't see the need to provide screenshots.
