And those with huge post counts can just inflate it with useless quick posts.

By being a Sr. Member or Hero has a higher chance of a history of successful trades.

For example, I'm guessing if you asked for a small loan it would get lent without any questions, just because you are a senior member. However, you only have one transaction on your trust list.

For some reason, people think that no one would want to "lose" a high level account, despite the fact that these accounts have no inherent value.

I can't even find a hero member asking for a loan request. However, my statement was that I've never seen a hero get rejected. I think that the burden of proof is on you.

Here, I'll help you: OgNasty loan request (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=276758.0) (Transaction history: NASTYMINING security) Scott J loan request (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=262594.0) (Transaction history: in thread) Tittiez loan request (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=265375.0) (Transaction history: lots - loans, moneypaks (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=127607.msg1355521), etc RandomQ loan request (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=159820.0) (Transaction history: lots - stocks (https://cryptostocks.com/securities/30), etc) Usagi loan request - NOT FILLED (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=250672.0) (Transaction history: lots, but sometimes dubious) So, here are some better statements to make: "I have never seen a Hero Member without transaction history request a loan" "I have seen a Hero Member get a loan request rejected" "I have seen a Hero Member get a loan request rejected because it made no sense" |
