Title: Scam Accusations or Reputation?
Post by: mdayonliner on July 03, 2018, 11:20:19 PM
I created this topic (cryptonbets: Unique approach - Just saved $50 (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=4594692.0)) on Scam accusations board however the site was not able to scam me. It was an approach only. My topic was more like to warn the community which I believe they will face it sooner or later since the site has not even launched (after looking at the evidence on whois lookup). The reason I am composing this topic is, I guess the topic for cryptonbets fits more in the Reputation board since most of the points I talked about were somehow gives a bad name for the site.

I would need suggestions to pick a right board please. If any mod ends up seeing this then, please feel free to move the cryptonbets topic to the right board. I will then make any change if it needs.

PS: Since I posted the topic on the scam accusations board - I had to follow the rules for the board. As a result you will be seeing the following contents on the bottom of the topic. You can ignore it if you want.

Scam accusation probably. IIRC, reputation is for bitcointalk accounts and the trust ratings a person receives/sends(related to that aspect) or for crazy butthurt people to come up with allegations. Scam accusations are for business/people that are scamming or trying to scam.

Yeah on the reputation board, I figured out everything related to reputation for bitcoinTalk accounts. 

Scam accusation probably.
I had this thought too and after seeing your feedback I feel like I have a vote  :)

Thanks for the feedback. I will lock the topic now.
