Hey Everyone ^^

So I've wondered about this for a while, figured i'd finally post it. Thought it would be nice if in the scammer accusations forum, there was a way to search through all the archived as well as open scammer accusations in a more timely fashion. Possibly adding a search engine at the top (like the trading forums) to search for a specific jsp user to see if there are any open accusations against them.

Why?
Remembering back to when i was new to the forums, as well as from receiving pms from numerous people recently, I feel it would be a great way to check and make sure you're not trading with someone who has any open/archived accusations against them. I remember back when i was new, I made a trade with someone, got scammed right away, and soon after found out there was 4 or 5 open scammer accusations out against this person already. Currently, you would have to flip page by page through the open or archived accusations, and it's nearly impossible to find any user that you want. This way, just by typing in the persons name, you'd be able to get a list of any accusations against them (open or closed). I feel it would be a nice addition, and with it many traders would be able to check and get a better idea of the person they are looking to trade with.

Just a thought
Cheers everyone!

There is already a way to do this and that is by the Search All Posts function, you can search the Scammer Accusations for any posts made by them

very good idea! i think this would also help to see if a member is making a lot of s/a's as maybe they are trying to abuse the system as well.

Very true, actually didn't realize that searched scammer accusations as well
and it costs 5fg each time some people (especially some who first start out) might not be able to afford to pay 5fg each time
