The addition of being able to search Scammer Accusations for a certain account (without running across "Topic Closed" of course) Would be greatly helpful when deciding whether or not to trade with the given account. Even though it seems scammers tend to go on Sprees until locked (Usually resulting in them being on the first few pages), the condensed accusations against them would seem to be helpful and quicker to access than trying to sift through the random accusations. Even if the accusations against them are old, it's nice to know when and if a mediator should be requested.

also... I'm not sure if it would really make a difference in the outcome of a sale, But i tend to avoid items with a history involving a scammer tagged account.
But the knowledge of when and why he was tagged could make the difference between the purchase or overlook of the item(s) in question.

Paul commented before that it won't be added.
Those with common sense know that they can use a mediator in order to trade safely, and being in a hurry isn't a viable excuse for anything.

But mmkay.

I suppose I must raise the question of, Why?
And No, You cannot use a mediator to safely trade for everything.

Mostly from those accounts who sell Un-perm items as perm.

heh, unperm as perm trades are one of those things where common sense should be tingling.
Anyone who deals with those knowingly takes the risk.

It's the same with account or nametrading+++, it's not supported for a reason.

So, trade in general is not supported? Because its not Only the high end items I've had poof on me, but also the common ones. Non-suffixed Skill gcs, random low end rune words and so forth. I've dealt with traders i would have assumed trustworthy, With far more posts and forum gold than I, and yet have their items disappear on me. With little or no repercussion.

And yet, it seems it was still I who was in the wrong for trading with them in the first place. At least this way, people could learn who to avoid.

Unperm as perm = word against word.
I could as well buy stuff from you and claim later that it poofed, and there's no way to know who's telling the truth.

Ah well I was just pointing out that it was debated before.

This isn't needed. It all comes down to following rules, and using common sense.

It specifically states that when you post a topic you are to put the name of the accused in the topic title, but it rarely ever gets done this way. The purpose is so that you can easily use ctrl + f to find the person you are looking for, or see if they have an accusation against them.

In all honesty, I think those that can't take the time to read the directions, and just post a thread with the title "XZOMG, I GOT SCOOMED HELP PLZ" should just be blatantly ignored, until they decide they can handle taking 30 extra seconds out of their day to read the instructions.

EDIT: Quite similar to those who post Site Suggestions, and don't bother to read through the list of ones that have already been suggested and shot down for good reason, ironically enough.
