Don't say there are threads like this. This is different. This is a guide for newer members to earn more respect and become less skiddish. This is a serious thread.
1. VERY IMPORTANT: Don't ask people to go first when you're new. It makes you look stupid, sketchy, and nobody will deal with you.
2. If the product is a low amount, you don't need a middleman. Don't stress about losing like $50 because if a person is sad enough to scam you for that pray for them. However if you have a reason to truly distrust them use a middleman such as @Philly. I would depending on the deal. Other members I personally like and recommend are @Tiger or @Chill or @Color and so on. I don't feel like tagging a lot of people.
3. Don't go on a thread trying to give your opinion when your new. Nobody cares about your opinion especially if you're trying to act like you know shit.
4. VERY IMPORTANT: Don't go off rep for deal. Go off vouches and people's feedback on the person. I love kids getting scammed by high rep people and they're like "but his rep was so high". Kill yourself.
5. Don't care about your rep. You look like a bitch if you do and it won't help your case to complain about a neg rep.
6. If you want people to like/respect/trust you more do more deals. Don't beg for rep or rep others expecting rep even though I know a lot of people do that. Stop trying to be a hero or a backseat moderator. Stop trying to correct people on useless shit such as their grammar and stuff.
7. If you deal offsite and get scammed, rather than make a thread and cry, blame yourself and only yourself. I have dealt offsite but it is with people I truly trust not skids I did a deal with once and assume are 100% legit.
8. VERY IMPORTANT: DONT BUY SHIT AND RESELL IT THE SAME DAY
9.MOST IMPORTANT: Don't be annoying, which is hard for a lot of 2014 and 2015 members but you can do it!
