I voted with the NO voters.
One, we do not have enough folks, another forum just splits what little is left of us and community further.
Two, some couple few folks change accts. like fetching drinks of water. I prefer to know who is whom, without having to go off to another forum to find out who is on first, today being whomever whether they be honest sellers or not, ie keeps us all clued in faster, when or if posted in one place, as to whom is whom on which acct. which chr. whom we may have known,owned by somene we trusted or knew, is now being owned perhaps by someone else, etc. that the acct. has changed hands on us.
Three, folks whom blame THIS forum, for jackarses that are dishonest really are blaming the incorrect source. We all do or should know the rules here, folks can still pm privately, or merely post BUYER BEWARE without name droppin, or yeh in in game chat to try to warn folks.
It is NOT Stratics fault, that the game world is sometimes full of JERKS, that are dishonest, or for their own amusement like to hurt or scam other folks.
But labeling namedroppin logically is a form of trial without jury smearing a name... here or anywhere, which without proof, is wrong, like rl trials, so in theory it shouldnt be done[ just in case] someone is NOT a dishonest arse. They any of us, can take elsewhere, more privately, to warn folks genuinely, NOT to buy off a so called, 'known' scammer or to warn that a player is not particularly worth anyone's trust with in game items, or rl moneys or accts. etc.
I know folks would like it IF such comments could be posted here publically on Stratics, but if one honest person's rep would be smeared it would be wrong, so wrong, sooner or later we learn whom NOT to trust even if it may be the hard way, it still is better than smearing a rep of someone that may NOT have been a scammer or dishonest publically HERE.
Best to forward comments still [regarding known possibly known scams or scammers.. PRIVATELY. ]
It just may be safer too, to keep everything Siege, here all in one place.
We ALL turn in HERE...one place, for anything, related to Siege. If we had to go to two sep. forums we also might MISS which acct. changed hands, and that may create more harm than serve good too.
