I am going to keep this short and simple, but this about Guest going to the marketplace section. I also don't know if this was suggested

What:
I think that the marketplace should be available to guess, they can click the subsections, but they can't view specific threads. Also they can't view a complete profile of a member on this website.

Why:
I say we do this because right now guest can go to the gamer section, and scam/impersonate the legit members on this website offsite. This means newer member can be easily scammed offline by a "member" online. Also the reason for the profile is because they can take all their social media username they have and say they do have it "sell it" and then scam the people.

Personal Experiences and Other Members:
My experience is that I have been kik multiple times by scammers saying they will trade and/or buy my accounts.

Another recent story is with @eric which you can find in a recent thread in a market place somewhere, but someone tried to impersonate him. That is why he is only dealing onsite atm.

While writing this I see @mcg is being impersonated too. It was true this guy was impersonating him because he told me that he used a VPN which was not true as I realize now. He did scam me and also impersonated @gage (the one with special characters who got banned) too at the same time. HIS OTHER KIK IS EXORCISMS SO WATCH OUT (my kik that got scammed).

I am saying this is because I feel like more people are going to do this to get what they desire.

What sections would be unavailable in marketplace:
-Appraisals-
-Middleman-
-Contest, Giveaways, and Request-
-Maybe Vouches-
-Premium Market-
-Everything section in the Gaming Market-
-Buyers Market-
-Traders Market (SM section only)-

Other Places (EX: General):
The other places wouldn't be N/A to guest because the guest would then be able to get a little "taste" of this website. So my suggestion will only apply to the marketplace



So, I hope you consider this and if you agree or disagree reply why or why not. If there is any mistakes please correct me.

The whole point of having it off limits to guests is to entice them to register.

As long as this helps stops scamming, I am for it.

I always think this when i see like 2 guests viewing a thread, just invites turboers and scammers into the market section pretty much without having a trace. Definitely get this done, fuck the guests.

If they want to sell/buy things make an account. I wouldn't trade/buy/ or sell to anyone without a upgrade anyways because they will have nothing to lose.

It would be an okay idea if it wasn't for turbo programs. Hate them little fuckers.

I say no. because that means anyone can view it. And message them offsite saying they're interested. Half the members here arent even smart enough to request a pm to verify someone is who they say they are. In my mind this would just make scamming easier. It should be left as it is.

Not really needed. The sections that they don't need to seen aren't there. The traders market should probably be blocked though. As for the profiles, I don't get the point, seeing your reasoning. Going on on a person's profile and saying you own their stuff is the equivalent to making up shit off the top of your head. Don't be stupid and you won't get scammed, it really is that simple.

The marketplace should stay closed. It's too much of a risk to allow unregistered guests to view out content.

I think you might of misread this. Most of the marketplace isn't closed the only place closed to guest is the social medium section.


I think you might have misread or I wrote something wrong, but I am suggesting we close down most of the marketplace to guest because it isn't closed.

The gamer tag section is also unavailable to guests.
