Ya know i have been coming here for a long time, and aside from the sloppy layout of the forum i have been utterly appaulled at the lack of anyone posting pictures of their goods when they sell/trade something. from the newbie to the #1 heatware guy. no one posts pictures of their goods. and a link to newegg isnt a picture of YOUR goods. thats a picture of a similar piece of hardware.
Anandtech fs/ft forums, i am afraid to say, has become a scammers/troll paradise.
there is more scamming going on here than any other forum i see. well, aside from hardforum. and xbox-scene.com
I love coming here and dealing with people because there is always alot of goods floating around this forum and this place is filled with alot of really great people. but not everyone is like that. There are, as we know, those who's sole purpose is to lie, cheat and steal their way around the internet because they think its the internet, they can get away with it.
In this day and age it's hard to find a forum that doesnt require pictures of the hardware you are selling/trading. and on top of that, you must put in the picture a signed piece of paper with that days date and your forum name.
So why hasn't AT adopted this form of member security? WHY!
Well i am here today to ask that question and formally request that Anandtech.com take the initiative to put in place this form of security and enforce it.
If you post a thread you must immeidately include pictures of your hardware w/ a piece of paper with that days date and your forum name on it, or your thread is locked or deleted. (most places lock it until you contact a mod to let them know you have pictures ready to post.)
PLEASE ANANDTECH INITIATE THIS FS/FT RULE !!
Nothing FS/FT, doesn't belong here, Sorry.
