Source check question

[hollowedzeus]

Hi guys just wondering if any of you guys could please explain how the source check function works on this forum.

Not planning on it but I read threads where people mention it and some HOF guys say no source checks in their title.

Thankyou to anyone who can clear this up for me.

SOURCE CHECKS 101 (or How NOT to get Scammed)

[hollowedzeus]

Already had a good read at it man. In essence my question is

If I find, for example madeup research labs. Do I then pm a vet asking if it would be wise to trust this source?

Is that all there is to it really as far as source checking?

I hope this doesn't come off as rude but your question is clearly answered in the attached thread.

THE ONLY WAY TO GET A SOURCE CHECK

1. You must be a member of this board in good standing for a minimum of 45 days.

2. You must have a minimum of 100 quality posts. (postwhoring doesn't count)

3. Then and ONLY then, you can PM a WILLING VET/MOD to ask about your source. (DO NOT ask in the open forum for them to PM you!)

4. NEVER order anything without getting your source checked by the VETS/MODS. DO NOT count on other members to give you references as scammers will OFTEN make multiple accounts in order to give out references for themselves.

5. DO NOT settle for just ONE source check. There have been dishonest mods/vets in the past, so make sure you get confirmation from at least two or three VETS/MODS BEFORE you ever order anything online.

I guess so then. Sorry for my ignorance, just wanted to be extra sure.

Thankyou for taking the time to respond to my redundant question
