    New requirement for sales threads

    Simplicity.

    I think all sales threads should require the OP's way of contact and info in the thread.

    Reason why:

    Easier for buyers to add them, instead of waiting until they get online to see their post and do it themselves.

    Most, not all, ban evaders tend to use the same Skype they used before getting banned, users will be able to research newcomers that may not post Skype details to see if it's been used before.

    It just makes things a whole lot easier.


    Opinions, concerns, ideas? Leave none of these without a valid argument of why you approve or disapprove please.

    No support. People may prefer privacy. People may prefer contact via PM's only to limit the chance of impostor scams, so on. No need and once again, Sythe has no interest in regulating how the market works.

    Many users decide to not include their Skype details due to the amount of IP Grabbers currently circulating, allowing other users to obtain such private details at ease.

    No support, I respect the fact that some people don't want to be the victims of DDoS attacks, so they keep their contact details private. Honestly, a seller should be able to reserve the right to being able to sell things the way they want to.

    No support. For instance I talked with someone last night on skype for 2 hours, who specifically requested me not to give out his skype, as it's not public to sythe.org community, and these things have to be respected.

    Though I agree with the ban evading part, you simply may not expect everyone to give out contact details, you have to respect privacy; Also what moonglare said about DDoS'ing.

    This.

    I don't post my contact information anywhere public. First it prevents hundreds of spam bots from adding me, and second it prevents imposters from adding me to try and talk to me.

    I understand both sides of it, but I also feel that a seller should have the right if he or she wants their information out there. No support from me

    No support. Privacy is important, just request a PM. If they wont PM you then just go elsewhere.

    No support, some people don't use Skype / MSN or just choose not to give it out and prefer to use Sythe's PM system.

    What about during signup? Would there be a way we could implement it so users had to post their Skype/MSN info for only the Globals/Admins to be able to see, like most of our personal info?

    Would make it easier to check for vaders if they were dumb enough to use their old info on their new account. Make the system throw up a red flag to staff when 2 accounts are registered with the same contact info

    No support on this either, I would not like to be forced to give my info. Also some people don't use MSN / Skype.

    No support, I only send my skype to people who i'm certain i will deal with, I refuse to post it in threads because i'll end up flooded with people adding me and all sorts of imposters and scammers adding me, not worth it imo.

    How many times have you signed up for something and entered "hdjdjud" as your name or something? Its the buyers responsibility to check for comtact details.

    No support, sythe is not putting in any market limitations anyways other than proof pictures. It would make vaders get smarter aswell, so definitely no support.

    No support on the second idea that was posted ether, I just don't feel it's necessary and most of the time people time in random things.

    This cannot simply be enforced on such a massive scale, denied.
