something needs to happen, to much scamming.

[Jasmine]

No it's not.

More to the point, this is being discussed currently. However, as it's obviously not a normal VBulletin feature, it would have to be coded and such. Endless complications apply.

complications apply to everything. and yet people still get pass them
i think sythe can get pass all this scamming if enough people are down

Scamming is a part of life, irl and the net. We can do things to lessen the damage, but it can never be permanently ended.

i agree with you.

and if these scammers did scam everything they said would have been saved in somesort of area to save convo's and he would then be ip banned.

its impossible to stop scamming but we can make it better to ban scammers

Isn't that why people take screen shots? To save the convos?

Isn't that why people take screen shots? To save the convos?

yes but also, chat log from msn isnt proof of a scam.
now if there we scamming in this "new" chat system
if would be proof that that account was scamming.

Maybe I am just slower than the rest, but isn't this just the chatbox idea that has been suggested and denied countless times?

If a trusted member is hacked, then this will do no good.
If a trusted member wants to scam, then again, this will do no good.

But assuming that the above has not happened, then use a trusted / official middleman, request a private message, and life is good.

well i havent been on these forums that long and havent been trough the suggestions but,
not a chat box. a chat system , like a program that can be personlized to fit with the sythe forums.

and , middlemen are not always available and they still can scam

my point for this thread is if we had a chat system ot something close

we would be able to ban all the scammers with the necessary proof.
and for the hacking part of sythe.
i say make passwords have a must of more than 10 characters



*sorry for double post shold have quted both in same , but i quoted other b4 i saw this post*

Again, what is the difference between a chat box on sythe, and a chat system on sythe.

You're right. Anyone could scam at anytime. But, who are you more likely to trust, an official middleman that has proof of handling over $1000 dollars in transactions, or, some new member that wants to trade with you promising a great account, for a small fee, but you have to go first/ 50/50 method?


?


The mods already do that. Scammers join this site everyday, and with the countless number of proxies out there, they can keep coming back quite easily no matter how many times they are banned.


If you are keylogged, that does not do any good because whether your password is 5 characters or 500 characters, it all gets recorded.

cause a chatbox would be inserted into a forum , a system i mean program -_-

umm 50/50 that shouldnt even be alowed to happen
i will always use a mm from now on
and mods dont always ban scammers. ive been scammed once by someone with like 16 vouchs or somesht and i have proof and nothing has happened to them

 

[natin1]

I think we need a rep system like keyhunt

 

[Anarky]

Lol viper, your so negative to all the suggestions in here, its funny when you go around saying things that dont help the situation out, just point out the facts, and doubt things will get better.

Scammers scam b/c they are greedy and lazy. I am lazy, and greedy for money, but in my life, i havent scammed one person, people call me scamer, but they got nothing on me, I tell the truth when it comes to trades, but i know other people dont, I play another game for fun and social, Im tryin to buy some rs accounts with the money on that game, got scammed 4 times in a row >.>

I mean, wth, people that greedy? I held up my end of the deal, they fuckin didnt. Pisses me off, you dont know who you could be scamming. Scammers should be i.p. banned, not "Banned" by having their name crossed out and banned next to it, even if they have that, people think they dont scam anymore, but they do.

I dont like using Official mm's b/c first, they charge >.> seond, their sorta hard to reach. So unofficial are ok with me, if they have a trusted history, and have done recent trades. I mean, i dont see why officials charge people, to not get scammmed, its sorta low, even though they may mm alot of them, i mean, you do it to help people out, not for personal gain >.>

 

[Cfrey]

Well first of all people like you can stop scamming, and then you can stop ban evading. That would get rid of some scammers. Enjoy your ban Jasmine/Alpine

 

[neopro]

We can come up with a system where every trade is awarded a point. Every bad trade is deducted a point. The users who trade award the points. That way, we can eliminate the vouches, which mean shit to me :/

 

[Jeff 2 Nasty]

It's called IRC.

actually an irc cant really protect anyone except if every sythe user was registered to the irc and well at least half of sythes members arent so her idea is pretty good we could have some kind of chat that links ur sythe login info to ur chat acc that way there cant be any imposters

 

[leechers]

sythe admins mod and stuf and lives to and are not sad nerds....

 

[Jokerz]

for the time i have been here on sythe i have seen
way way way! to much scamming going on.
we as loyal sythe user's need to take action and come up with a
solution to all this madness!

id say , use a internal chat system that sythe user's can use to chat with other sythe user's to where only the sythe account can use the sythes name on the chat
so it will be undeniable proof that that person scammed ect..

please rate thread

Protip: Dont get scammed.

Protip: Dont get scammed.

your a loser. that's not what this is about.
its a suggestion and what can help
so why dont you and your arrogant self
with your "protip" and leave this thread

 

[Thebombdotorg]

That wouldn't take out scamming, only impostors.

Or I could just wave my magic wand and stop scamming altogether because it's that easy! Right?

*waves magic wand*

*looks around*


>_>

 

[SH4D3S]

That wouldn't take out scamming, only impostors.

Agreed, this won't fully stop imposter's as some/most people will ignore this idea and just trade as they normally did.

Like "Thebombdotorg" said, who care's if you know it's them on Sythe, they can still scam you. But it would be better proof to get them banned.

Though, since it will decrease a lot/a bit of the ammount of scammer's and imposter's i'm supporting this idea. Even though she's now banned for ban evading.

 

[Xaranx]

You can't stop people from being scammed. It's literally impossible.

 

[Mrdoomed]

This is what annoys me guys, People say they need to stop scamming. Scamming wouldn't happen if people weren't greedy.

If you feel your going to get scammed and don't want to go through with it. Use a Middleman ( Make sure they are on the list!). Or don't do the trade theres nothing worse then regretting a trade.


Hope i helped,

Mrdoomed.

 

[K03d u f4st]

lol i assume jasime your a scammer as well and to keep thread going i belive scammers like you need to be removed.

 

[TJ]

seeing how the thread owner is already banned..

 

[Anarky]

Someone who makesa thread to try to stop scaming is banned, sythe is going downhill >.>

Maybe cause were so popular? =D
