Proof of completed fire cape.

this suggestion is quite simple and will weed out 95% of the fire cape scammers.

instead of requiring them just having the sythe name in the picture, wich leads to alot of good/badly edited pics it's way better to make them press enter before they screenshot.

example of an (badly) edited pic:


example of a pic where you press enter:

pro's:
Will weed out most of the scammers
pics cannot be edited
Con's
People can't do this if they are muted - how big is the chance of someone being muted?
edit: we can get a mod or anyone trusted to verify the person is muted ingame (in wich case a normal pic would be sufficient)

This will definitely get a lot of support.

Support!

 

Any legit caper has no reason not to support this.

I support 100%.

 

I don't see any reason not to support this its a great suggestion!
support!

 

Good idea.
I've rarely seen any muted people, so I do support.

 

Good thinkin'. Simple to do, yet effective.

 

Lol I remember back in the day Jad would be 7/8 dead and I forgot to type the message in so I would be scrambling to smash the keys before he died.

I support anything that makes it harder for scrubs to try and firecape scam (though non scrubs can still easily photoshop this new screen shot idea)

 

i like this suggestions, the harder it is for them to fake it the better < will get rid of tons of scams

 

Support but will they have to this for every cape they do?

 

I support this. 100%

 

i support this 100%


EDIT: the chance of some one being muted? you on sythe now lol not many rule followers

 

great idea, i support, anything to stop the scammers.

 

And what of the previous capes? Eg, for me. I've done over 130 completed, not once have I pressed enter. As for the tag in a title, am I not allowed to say "130+ Capes Completed" anymore, or something along those lines, because I haven't pressed enter? If a mod was really bored, I'd have no issue with them going through every picture of mine, trying to find a fault. I see the logic behind this, and if it doesn't effect my previous capes in anyway, Support.

 

I don't think you need to do it for EVERY one but just a few to prove that you can and have actually gotten fire capes.

 

Don't see anything wrong with this.

Support.

 

Support, doesn't really require any more work and will reduce lots of scammers.

 

Support for sure. Reduces scammers and doesn't take any extra work.

 

My understanding is that this would be for new people looking to open a firecape shop. I don't think anyone would be calling your legitimacy into question lol

 

you don't need 130+ capes on your topic, you only need one picture proving you've killed a jad

and as you have 5+ vouches for doing capes you don't need a picture at all

 

I think a market mod should go ahead and edit the sticky to include this ammendment. The requisite screenshot for "proving" you can kill Jad must have a message spoken in RS rather than just typed in the chatbox.
