Verified seller

Painkiller · Mar 26, 2014

Maybe so new users feel more comfortable making deals we can add a "verified user” award or symbol in a seller's profile.

We can put a check mark in the end of the seller's name or give them an award or something.

I don't know, it's just something I thought of in the shower and I thought it could be cool.

We can make it like the verified symbol they have on twitter. I think it would be pretty sick.

Yes.. that'd be sick a'f.. people like @"Color", @"Chill", @"187", @"Sector", and @"Narc" could get this..

I'm sure this has been suggested 9,000 times already.

There use to be a verified middleman but they did away with it so I'm guessing this will be denied.

Philly has told me many months ago he was going to make a usergroup called "Verified" I like this idea a lot more though.

Philly had a verified group in mind, where you'd have to privide him with all personal info, etc. to hopefully prevent scams, but it fell through. I agree, this would be cool.

I do believe this would prevent scams, however no personal information can be proven valid over the internet. With PayPal, they will either

Send a letter to your "address" with a code inside and instructions on how to validate it, however anyone could use a drop house.
Phone Verification: Easily exploited using the "pinger" application.
Providing legal documents: These can be easily faked.

As you can see, there is no way to validate any personal information, and I doubt even legitimate people would give out their real information anyway. What I am thinking in terms of qualifications, is

200+ Positive Vouches
20+ Deals with @Philly that have gone successfully.
Never have had a scam report opened on you.
Never been banned from this forum for any reason
Less than 5 warnings given

I believe these would be the best requirements for this group we are speaking of.

Philly said no to this before. He doesn't want to be held accountable if that "verified" seller ends up scamming.

Just go by people's vouch threads.

Yeah and that never happened.

Phormick · Mar 27, 2014

If Philly wanted to implement this, I'd even be willing to make a plugin that added a checkmark like in Twitter. You'd go to the User Profile in admin settings and check a box that said like "Verified?"
