Word soon spreads that someone posts fake prices and the Community learn to ignore any posts/trades they post in the future.
I think a good majority of users who come here are "ignorant" users. Not in a pejorative sense, but in the fact that they briefly look here for a price or a sale and take things at face value without doing much research.
That'd make reputation an almost moot point if the user isn't familiar with people or the forums.
Which ignorant user wakes up one fine morning, with a cuppa and goes. "Hmm I think I want a Partyhat. in fact I want a couple!
I get your point, but I don't know how many partyhats you've bought or sold in past year( I only say this in these sense that the community had become even smaller)
but at present people are more keen on doing research before buying than ever before, and reputations play a big part. Word of mouth goes a long way.
Go and see old threads of people doing PC and you'll see who were the people taken more seriously and why, albeit all of them had flaws.
We are trying to fix those flaws here, and
and even if we assume, there's tons of 'ignorant' players coming to forums to look for partyhat prices, Should we rather them have a fair view from many users and trades or send them the way of Scam artist Friend chats?
Surprised.

is SPOT ON on reputation playing a big part in how seriously people take your trades.
and even if we assume, there's tons of 'ignorant' players coming to forums to look for partyhat prices, Should we rather them have a fair view from many users and trades or send them the way of Scam artist Friend chats?
Surprised.

This is one of the main reasons advertising FCs on price check threads, be it in OP's signature or in posts, is such a toxic thing, because they want new prey for them to take advantage of.
Which is why they advertise in game more desperately than coca cola does irl.
MONOPOLISATION OF PRICE CHECKING HAS TO END.
It's as simple as that.
Makes you wonder, Why? Why so desperate? image related. (Bots being used in w2 to advertise)

Monopolies have earned a bad reputation because of what happens with them in the hands of people. There is nothing inherently wrong with them until you add greed to the mix. I disagree. Monopolies are bad even without greed, as a general rule. Unrelated comment to this thread. I cannot for the life of me manage to catch Covid. Perhaps it's because I didn't get vaxxed? The travails of those lacking immunity.
