    Well, I see alot of instant reporting lately So that quote came too mind.

    I think there should be a minimal amount of time you have too wait until posting in the Ripper and/or Scammer Reporting section.

    I think it must be some sort of amount.

    anything above some certain amount sounds good to me.

    It took over 3 weeks to get my 2000 credits back, and Shaggy didn't even do it, Axiom had to.

    7 days i think is more than enough time for someone to get back to you before posting a 'scam' in the scammers forum, and i agree with this all the way.

    Yea, if this goes into effect, there will be alot less spam/false reports for the mods to have to clean up.

    then you can have them remade for you, the account banned for scamming and a few credits get back into the system.

    Not what happened last time I saw.

    Kirbir was scammed, and the credits were sent to another person who was totally unaware, and uninvolved. The mods didn't want to put more credits into the system so the member was banned and kirbir was not refunded.

    Not to be rude...

    but does it look like kirbir really suffered from that lost?

    :/ I mean a few days later she gave out 2k credits.

    Well lemmeh ask you this...

    What does kirbir have to do with any of this?

    The topic isn't about her.

    Its about too wait time before posting in rippers and scammers.

    SO lets stop this debate and get back on topic :).

    I was responding to that comment. And that was an example I used. It has everything to do with it.

    No, actually it doesn't. Some members have to sacrifice to help other members. Removing credits from the system is the only reason that credits are not given for posts, topics and polls currently.

    Kirbir, in this example, unwillingly sacrificed in order to help other members. It is unfortunate, but you can't use 1 persons problem to back you up. Look in the rippers/scammers forum and there are countless accounts where the individual got the credits and sold them, and was banned, and the credits were given back to the original transferred person, and it added credits, but thats a price the mods are wiling to take most of the time. Currently they aren't because the main purpose at the current time is removing credits from the system.
