    why is there no place to report scammers

    This is hte only board that does not do that. Who are the mods trying to defend, I would think you would want to protect others from ripped off.

    Scammers sections are liabilities to boards...

    They also require a lot of cash for their upkeep.

    Where's the cash coming from?

    Members?

    nope...

    This is a free site for Pete's sake.

    how does a scammer section cost the board anymore than anyother section?

    I have read your threads also
    maybe waiting a little longer than
    a week would be proper..IMO
    But..that IS alot of money.
    If your a mod on another board,I
    cant see why u cant figure this
    out, or check the appropiate way.
    good luck to u

    We aren't trying to defend the scammers at all. A list like that is a liability to all. Also, the board owner does not want that type of list here.


    I would give it more then a week but a good rule is to never send more then you can afford to lose. A source can be good one day and go bad the next.

    If it is a scammer list you want there are plenty of sites with scammer lists out there. But if you notice some "scammers" are scammers on one site and legit on others... so it's really very political...

    Better off just emailing a mod/vet you trust and ask if they have any info on any potential sources you have.

    If the mod/vet tells you the source is good but yet you still end up being scammed, pm the mod/vet again and provide evidence. The word will spread soon enough...

    Really, STFU already about this. You bitched in another thread already. I am going to suspend you because you constantly cry like a little girl about this, and one mod already warned you.

    If you have an issue with this sites rules/regulations, then just leave. Go back to your precious source board and STFU.

    No one is protecting anyone here, we just don't get involved in those kinds of things and it's the system admin's choice as to the kind of board he wants to operate. Tough shit if you don't like it, just leave.
