i agree with most of what you said, however if there is an accusation (whether it be real or fake) for any of our guild members or future members, i think this would make it much easier for us to kinda see what is going on so we know. i understand that what someone did 5 years ago is of no concern today, and i would never say that someone is a bad person based on one mistake 5 years ago, this is more of a whats going on now type of thing for me... if that makes any sense.

edit: and sometimes it takes 6 months to get someone locked even with efficient proof.

not necessarily... i think it's dumb to judge someone on soemthing they can't control at all (in the case of a fake accusation). fake accusations happen, and look (especially to a normal user) exactly like a real one. It would be outright unfair to judge someone like that.

Edit: If anything, it should only be available to only the mod team.

I think it would be a nice feature. I think the proportion or real accusations that go unpunished compared to fake ones is quite large and would help users identify possible scammers.

Of course the obvious solution to never getting scammed is to always use a mediator though

i would never jump the gun and just say "oh hey someone said this so you can join our guild, or i wont trade with you." what im saying is it would be much easier for me to keep track of progress of proof and so on.

As said its been suggestion many many times and denied every time.

I wouldnt have a problem with it being added but if Paul and the other mods feel it is not needed then im sure they have there reasons for it.

There should be a list of accused unperm as perm sellers, or sth that helps people avoid these scams.

No need, this is intentional. We don't want to encourage false accusations by implementing this. If there are any SA issues that you need to be worried about, it would be clear by the Scammer tag and/or Locked forum gold.
