Hack Forums

Previously I had a 5 (maybe 10?) post count minimum just to access the BST (buy sell trade) area. I implemented that to combat spam and scammers. Recently I have been scrutinized because BST does have some people trying to sell CVV's and Credit Cards. Be aware I rarely look in that section and legally it's more of a problem to create limits on what can be sold than to simply say "At your own risk". It's NOT an illegal act by me what others do here. I am for all intense purposes an ISP. I provide a service. This is why you don't see me posting black-hat tutorials or other questionable material. I assume no liability here.

Anyways...I did implement the "no personal information" rule hoping to slow down problems in that area but it's had only a minor effect. We are still getting one time signups just to post crap and attempt to scam people. I do not want to close the BST as there are some good viable posts there. There is no reason why legal activities can be conducted in that forum.

So today I am implementing a 50 post count minimum to that area. Right now it's the only additional rule to BST. I hope that it will prevent scams and deter illegal activity. Normally well before 50 posts I close accounts on low-quality posting members.

Some might now be asking "why not just ban CC and CVV sales?". Hmm...it's a good question. Partially because I just hate adding rules. Partially because I am aware that in some countries this might not be illegal. But most importantly...because I am not doing anything illegal. I do not condone anyone to commit an illegal act nor does this site.

Here is BST description:

Quote:This is our marketplace to conduct commerce. It's NOT monitored so make sure to be diligent and careful about any deals you make. HF isn't going to take responsibility for what happens in here.

The reason it's not monitored is because I don't want to get into the role of policeman when people get ripped off. It's 100% not my problem.

Thank you.

I like the 50 min. Post rule, It probably will stop alot of scamming problems as most of the scammers wont spam there way up to 50posts just to attempt to scam someone else,

Yes that's my thoughts too.

or you could make a group where people can trust members of this site to buy, sell, or trade stuff to people. how about "verified sellers".

Well, I do my best to try to point out the fagot scammer rippers and the dumbshit kids that get sucked into these stupid scams. Although that stupid fagot ripper Amexrica, aka shado-whack, aka legitseller seems to have no prob getting about 100 posts in the time it takes to ban his stupid ass.

I think it's a great idea. I have a rule not to even think about dealing with someone that has less than 100 posts here, just because you need to be invested in what your doing. If it's illegal, you better come up with a really good fuxxin' way to not get caught. Which can be done(besides, what's wrong with getting caught?) The question is: What exactly can you prove? Otherwise, you deserve what you get. But I digress.

I'm not on here all the time anymore but when I am, i'll still flame the fuxxin' idiots that look like they're scamming and point out the not-so-very-well-thought-out plans of 8yr olds that want to get into a life of C/C crime. And only because I like fighting stupidity... and those bitches are cutting into my profits. JK. If you can't enjoy slapping scammers and kids around, then there is no point to life.

What about having mods that are room exclusive. they can only access the actual room they are modding in? Someone in BST can't ban anyone in Beginner Hacking. That way you have mods for all rooms with limited interaction to other mods? Or limit the amount of bans per day, so you have to get authorization higher up the food chain for more than 1-5 bans? Granted some rooms may have a 10 limit, like BST.

Just my two pennies,

Ig

I think thats a great idea^, mods for one section, its worked well in other forums I been in

Great idea Omni They will move onto another site when they see how many posts they have to do.

omni,

that legitseller also calls himself legitshipper, there is nothing legit about him anyway.

SUPERB MY GOOD MAN
