Pop-up Warning system

04/12/2014 19:27 Kuthlezz#1
Hello guys,

I was wondering if it is possible to add a "pop-up" warning system to this page? Because i am a little bit frustrated about the fact alot of people are getting scammed in different sections. Seems they have no clue how to trade safe which is absolutely their fault aswell but can't we help them a bit with a pop-up warning with a text : BE SURE YOU READ THIS -> AND OPEN A TRADE REQUEST

not sure if someone suggested it before, but its happening to often in my eyes that 'trusted people' are scamming new guys.

Most user will think: "oh a pop-up, probably advertising" and will click on close
also naive users will ignore everything that has a lot of text, they think "I cannot be scammed, that will not happen, I'm a smart person!"

Oh ye didnt saw it on that way. But there must be something that warns new players. In my eyes people with 100+ tmb's are abusing it because no1 knows actually how EPVP works.

Admins and the staff has made many threads which included "Always be sure who you are talking to", "Request a trade". It's their job to check the sticky threads and obey it. Adding a pop-up would be a mess. I totally agree on this point with Der-Eddy. Some Scammers, as well as the traders, both think they are smart, but they are not. About your trusted people part, no one is trusted. Anyone can do anything. That's the law of world. Even if someone have 500 TBM, doesn't mean they are hundred percent safe. e*pvp will provide support for everyone But if you have e*gold trader or premium, you will be eligible for "TBM Rating Support". If it's a negative rating, and you want it removed, unless you have e*gold trader or premium, It's not possible. But, I assume that if the scam is indeed real, It's still possible to ban the scammer. It's not elitepvpers fault if people don't listen and act irresponsibly. It's their and only their fault. If they want to know how to trade safe; [Only registered and activated users can see links.

No you can't get a virus. All i want to say to you: Be sure you open trade request while trading on ePVP and be sure you trade via epvp not via skype!!

Theoretically, it is possible. The trader could sell something (for example, a GFX pack) upload it to mega.co.nz, or wherever else, and attach a virus to the .rar file. But, that's never happened before as far as I know.
