Thread: Should there be a trader section?

Everyone, I bring to you a poll where the users of TI decide what they want here at TI.

The question:

Should there be a trader section?

This poll will be here for 1 week so make sure you cast your vote. Decisions will be made about the section following this week.



May I be the first to cast a vote?

I've voted no, there shouldn't.

No, trades only bring problems!

I think invitations giveaway and invitations request is enough.

I don't have any personal experience of trading. I've heard there's been a lot of scamming around though, so I voted no.

No, way too much scamming and BS can be caused by trading, for all sides around, can also bring some undeserved bad rep to this site.

although i hadn't trade, i voted yes....you know, just to keep them in check...to know who's a trader and who's not...and to keep mods busy,lol

I voted yes. However I believe there needs to be some checks and balances.

For starters there needs to be an escrow service or some sort.
Additionally there needs to be an "expection" clause.
Expect: You to maintain a .8 or better ratio for 90 days
Expect: You to notify me if you have trouble maintaining your ratio.
Expect: If at any point you can't comply with the rules etc, turn the account over to me.

I've traded once for site access (it wasn't a torrent site). We each put $500.00 in an online escrow account via Paypal. Once the transaction took place we both sent approval to the escrow company. It only cost $8.00 to do it. There was security in knowing that if I or he got scammed, We not only had the arbitration of the escrow company we had Paypal's sysetm as well.

I'm not sure how you prevent people from selling their invites though.
