Hello,
I find it unique that people can easily lock their own topics here. I can imagine this can be great, but it also helps scammers a lot.
Just look at these topics:
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=513184https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=505086https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=508110https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=500660Obviously this is just 1 guy trying to scam on multiple accounts.
Shouldn't we be able to post to these topics to warn others? Can there be like a limit of member group before you can lock your own topics? I would be also happy to report these for removal, but I think "possible scams" are not really removed here either. Or would "report for unlock if obvious scam" be an option? Or "Lock" could be enabled only in some forums? (doesn't really make sense in Currency exchange)
Perhaps no one is stupid enough to fall for these scams.. but I am not sure about that. Would be good if we can help the naive.
It is btw great that Tomatocage is adding negative trust as warning. I could also add neg trust but no one would notice as I am not on trusted lists, so I would prefer to reply instead.
