Shed some light on mm/guru situation please

[mac_user]

Hi there, i'm new in town. Been playing rs since 2000, haven't played for around 4 months (i'm retired), and told it's a good idea to sell my account.

I'd like to know what the difference is between mm, guru and guru+, I've had a browse on this site and couldn't see a post explaining it properly.

How would a transaction be completed if i wanted to sell my account for real life cash. And what do the mmm/guru/guru+ get out of it?

Thx in advanced.

depends if the guru charges not they are usually free. Btw use me as the mm i am free

MM are like moderators in a trade. There are no more official middle men. I suggest not letting anyone with less than 10 vouches try to MM for you but that's just my opinion. Here are some links for you to read.

Could you tell me what your term of a vouch is, and how i can see how many vouches someone has?

 

[kmalik]

A vouch is a confirmation that a person leaves after a successful trade.
If i did a trade with you and it was successful i would leave a vouch that would say that u are trustworthy. But however dont base trust on a person on their vouches, S3xpert (a trustyworthy mm finished app i think) scammed just a couple a days ago. Base your trust on the person on how well you know some one. You can find vouches usually in a persons sigs. Mine are in my mm thread which is the Kmalik mming service userbar in my sig.

Hi...Yeah it depends but always remember vouches doesn't means person trustworthy....Kabal 100+ vouches scammed 80m+ 1 week ago.

Holy fuck, why so many needles

I would recommend not making trades at all if you have this little knowledge of things. otherwise i can tell you will end up scammed.

WTF are you talking about? Needles? Wrong thread buddy. Everyone brings up a good point beside bardeep. Vouches once was used to show a sign of trust but with the updates in runescape, even those who were so trusted have scammed. I guess it all comes down to who you personally think you can trust. Also, Darkspark makes a valid point on if you don't know what you're doing, don't trade.

Thanks for the info, really helped.

What is a 50/50 trade?

For me, i'm selling an account for rl cash in the 60-126 forum. Which method of payment for me is the safest? I read a post somewhere in these forums that paypal, they can take your money back? I can access all payment methods, just would like to know which is the best for me not to get scammed.

Is there a moderator or someone here who can be a middleman? Surly the moderators of this board would be trustful?

Sorry for all the questions, just i'd like to know these things before i sell it.

Thanks in advanced for all the replies.

Dont do a 50/50 trade, EVER. Like never ever. And if you are going to sell via paypal i suggest you do some serious reading about it, as people can do chargebacks.

 

[hm0ng]

50/50 is when you go half and half. I'm not sure how you would go 50/50 for real money or other methods besides paypal or runescape gp (which is virtually impossible now). The method of payment that I think is the safest would be either Western Union (WU), since you need ID to get the money or cash by mail (with insurance & delivery confirmation of course). Those ways I would say are the the safest since they require a signature to get the money.

Masterkiller knows what his talking about.

paypal = fraud

50/50 = scam.

I Agree, Read everything over.
