If you are planning on dealing with a user that has a colorful name please take a few of my words of advice~

Don't look at the reputation, that could be there friends dropping vouches of false claims, this would only be seen as legit in certain circumstances such as: Legit deals, Helpful middlemen, Users that are known in the marketplace.

I'm not making this thread to bag on anyone nor make any false claims of who is legit or not, I'm mainly pointing this to those that are planning on scamming or have scammed a new member recently, but also to point out the main middlemen that are legit and are well trusted in my eyes.

You can use either one of these 5 users to middlemen all of your deals: @Jaii @Jamil @Fade @Philly @Chill

All five(six including Rude) of those listed above including me are probably your safest bet for middleman on all of your deals, each of us are highly vouched and well respected within the middleman section. I've included myself because of all the safe deals I have done recently, many of those that have used my service can vouch how easy and fast I've done my transactions for them.

Here is what I'm trying to point out to those new ones around here..

Run a huge background check on all users you are planning on dealing with, this can include the following:

  • Check for a vouch thread, look through it. Make sure all vouches include a deal they have done with a user, most circumstances you'll see a user saying "vouch for my best friend, he has swag" or some bullshit along those lines, Most of these could be deemed as legit vouches but you would hardly know unless you go further into the background check which is what I will point out in the next few points.
  • Check through the users reputation, make sure he has some legit vouches from users, You can go further into this by checking the other users reputation and making sure they didn't just R4R saying "user is legit, cool guy". Most legit vouches can be excluded from the pack of R4R saying "Vouch for this user, quick transaction easy purchase/sale". If you see reputation saying "Highly trusted, cool user" it's mainly kids just looking for reputation to be given back, but anyway next point..
  • If you are looking for a middleman, look through the users middleman thread as well as the vouch thread and make sure you check for all the claims of sales or easy middleman transactions, these will show you a legit user for middleman.
I haven't created this thread to point that I'm legit with middleman or to make users deal with me I've created this to stop the 2015 users dealing with faggots that have no vouches, I know I'm from 2014 and new to the forum scene, but you should realize I have been around a long time and seen a lot of my friends get banned for scamming and seen a lot of my friends get scammed. I've come across users that have private messaged me asking for advice on how to approach staff members about a scam report, I've directed new members to the correct sections on the market to sell off there items, I've helped many new users get what they need here on the site. I'm not here to say anything else but BE WARY OF USERS THAT CLAIM TO BE LEGIT. You don't have to take any of this advice I've posted here, but you can follow a few of my pointers above to stop you from getting beamed of your precious ogs.

Thanks, rant over.

p.s: always pm a staff member if you want a legit middleman, they are prone to NOT scamming you due to them being staff. And always be wary of every user, just deal at your own consent.

What if they scam the middleman? Plot twist of the century.

I have no intention to do so, nor do I believe Jamil or Fade or Philly or Chill would ever do so either.

Exactly why I listed "deal at your own consent".

Just saying, there is really no validity to this thread. The people you listed other than @Philly wouldn't be a good choice, other than @"chill", and your last statement is very false. Staff scam just as much as normal members as history can easily show.

If you want a 100% legit MM then @Philly is the best bet, may take awhile but is the safest path. Everyone else could give a shit less, he has to worry about HIS site. No one else does so they don't care about the deal. Recommending yourself also makes the thread look very bad, I'm sure everyone can attest to that.


The worst thing you can do is recommend people that could take a drop and fuck everyone over just because you made this thread to recommend them. Then it's very very bad on you and even worse on the site since they were "recommended". I wouldn't recommend myself as a MM for that simple fact. I suggest revising all that or something, people change and no one really gives a fuck over the internet.

i think the word you were looking for was parasite. when on this site, i would rather not use a mm at all. if the person doesn't feel comfortable going first to me, then oh well. if I absolutely had to use a mm, i would only use @gunnar, as he is the only person that i can actually say i trust on here.

you don't trust your own son, fuck off.

On topic: it's whomever is dealing's choice to choose whomever they want as a MM, if you feel comfortable with the MM why not, if he fucks both of the users over oh well they used him/her under their own confidence.

oh hey buddy don't be like that we'll get some ice cream later today. I trust you though bro, but I would only ever trust gunnar to mm for me. not sure why you would want a mm when dealing with me as I've been doing this shit for 6 years now. If you don't know me better ask ya momma
