    they closed it and didnt move it because its a dumb question to ask and they deleted the trustability section because it serves no purpose.

    like i said they are all trustable until they scam you.

    I closed them and i will close every other trustability topic i see. Two reasons.

    1: c-w is a market section and no off-topic topics about anything except <S/<B should be made there.
    2: Asking people if someone is trustable is retarded. Why do you think we got rid of the trustability section?

    A Forum Currency Sytem would make things so much easier to find out if people are scamming or not (records), pay usd for the forum gold off k4l and people can transfer it from person to person? :P

    i shall be the only useful post for you.
    1. click member profile and search topics created by aforementioned person
    2. find previous trade threads and check out people who bought/sold from him/her prior
    3. contact them
    4. rinse and repeat
    5. search forum for his user name
    6. make sure he isn&#39;t mentioned in any threads relating to scamming/cheating/whatever
    7. search google for his msn address

    2: Asking people if someone is trustable is retarted. Why do you think we got rid of the trustability section?[/b]

    need a 100x larger community. shit ain&#39;t jsp, son. this would work if the denizen of ko4l dominated the market. but, ko4l does not.. come even close

    ehh tank you got some points..but what if the scammer has a different account.

    8. ask gm to check his IP.

    i mean yea they might be using proxies..but maybe not worth a shot.

    no it&#39;s not. you REALLY have to control the market in order for this system to work. ko4life users can only trade with other ko4life users, and with the ip ban on turkey + limited registration, that will be a lot of fun i was toying with this idea as well a year ago, but when i actually thought about it.. it wouldn&#39;t work.

    gm? lol

    there will always be loopholes for every transaction. i.e. you are doing a trade with an admin here, so you happily send first. however, you later discover that a turkish hacker actually took over his msn+ko4life account!!! omg!!!

    my points encompass everything that you can do to hopefully stave off some scammers.
    what you are asking is an exercise in redundancy. in most cases (most cases is the best we can do btw), the person will have a decent amount of material to go off on and USUALLY scammers don&#39;t take that much time to establish themselves before trying to scam. the limited registration was meant to curb scammers from making new accounts, so what you are asking reallllly is redundant.

    you will never be safe.

    get trusted and make them send first WU only k
