So, I see a lot of people getting scammed, and it's very rarely that scammers ever give back their stuff. I think a way we could possibly fix this is after we ban someone for scamming, we give them 3 days to return it and they'll be unbanned (with DWC, yes, DWC would be perfect for this). However, if they don't return it in 3 days, they are banned forever (IP banned). This way, it can help members get their shit back, because without this the scammers have no reason to return these items, and it's just another lost cause . . .

Also, sorry if this is typed fucked up, I did it on my phone.

It would be better if it were 24 hours instead of 3 days.

Yeah time can be negotiated, however I'd say they would need sometime to figure out what they are losing/giving up when they scam.

I guess this is a good idea but most of the time people scam is when they plan to leave the site forever.

I disagree. DWC was removed for a reason. Scammers shouldn't have a 2nd chance, they're scammers.

Scamming is scamming no reason for them to be here. If they scammed a member on site then they should be removed from the site plain and simple.

This is a good idea however there are some people that can get you money back depending on how paid.

Ok, but you guys don't understand. This can help members get their shit back. And FeaR, you are a huge hypocrite considering you scammed Saber.

Scammers don't deserve a second chance, I don't agree with this suggestion.

Optimus, shut up, we should ban rep whores now that i think about it. This isn't for the scammers, this is for the users who are getting scammed. Most members don't realize what they are giving up when they scam, look at Cesar for instance, he scammed but give everything back because he wants to be back on FK. He realized scamming wasn't worth it, and I bet most members realize that within 3 days of scamming, that's why they multi account.

Yes indeed, we need more scamfree deals on here, this sort of thing could accomplish most of that. I applaud this!

What if they scam a new user within that 24 hrs because they know they will get banned anyways?

@I9A I guess I didn't make it clear, they will already be BANNED, but if they give the stuff back they will become unbanned.

I see what you're trying to say, which in a way would be good. I don't agree though, I don't want scammers here either way. I like the way FK treats scammers in removing them from the site. If this was allowed, it could end up like HF, where everyone scams with no consequences.

@Color how? This involves doing the SAME thing FK already does but unbanning members after they return it (if in x number of days)

@FeaR don't even act like you've never scammed, I know you stole that tag from Saber. I think you are a cool guy, but what you did was wrong, but on top of that, you got him and his little brother console banned!
