I agree that this may be a god thing but it also might be a bad thing too

Yes put a restriction on it but maybe not restrict to people that donate because people can look at it as well hey at least I only have to pay $15 for an account.

Maybe require a person taking part in an auction to be a member with quality posts before the service started or that has donated. Then only allow others who buy an auction account for at least $20 to show they are serious and to get some nice profits for the forum.

I hate to be the bearer of bad news but I'm ending the Trade system test because there isn't a way to fully deter fraud without charging people money to verify their ID, similar to the http://www.trustwho.com ID verification.. so if anyone has any ideas of what we can do.. then I'll be willing to readd it.. also.. if anyone wants to try and create a similiar ID verification service (to trustwho) and needs help, I'd be willing to lend a hand so PM me.

perhaps just keep the trading area, so we dont have to delete all these WTS posts. then it's up to the users to trust eachother

That could work.. something to think about though because there still will be a good amount of fraud to look out for.. and worthless advertising..

Tell people to work out trades and auctions through Paypal between the buyer and seller. No liability on mmowned's part, and paypal has fraud protection and verification.

Perhaps you could put someone of the staff be an account verifier or something. Perhaps have that person test an account before it is able to be traded here. Ofcourse that person should be off high reputation and very well known. Lol, doesnt sound like too much of a good idea but it is an idea.

I agree with this. If you go to the scam section and get some of the members from there (the one's who do all the paypal account scams) then it would be harder to scam because they know most of the ways to scam through paypal.

i say we go cold turkey and not do any auctions better safe then sorry

the auctions section is already open to active members, contributors, elite usergroup, donators, and staff.
