Hi Marco... u may consider to add my escrow service in the list. My thread => https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=864290.0

Done

Thank you Marco

Thanks for this list , maybe I will use one escrow one day ( if it will be necessary).

Would you consider adding me?

Have u been able to complete any escrow so far ? I think, everyone else listed here has completed at least one escrow.

None as of yet, however it could help me start handling a few trades.

If you could start a few trades then I could pop you into the list!

Probably focusing on more trolls.

[OgNasty]

I'm not in the big 5?    Besides being a treasurer/donator/legendary member of the forum, I think I also handle a great deal of the escrows here.

I do have a PGP signature as well:    FFB86E4035CF994D26403699A338C617DE66E656   

Edit: Not to mention I have a higher trust rating than every member of the "big 5"

marcotheminer: Do you happen to be devthedev as well?  I'm wondering why you have him at #1 despite his low trust rating and lack of time here on these forums.  I noticed he joined around the same time as you, has a similar name/number of posts, and a similar writing style... 

Just sayin'.  Take these "ratings" with a grain of salt.  They're biased at best and unethical at worst.

I would say nasty deserves to be in the top 5(6)

I do Bitcoin only.

My favourite escrow on this forum is devthedev. He is prompt in his work and replies instantly to my queries.

Agreeing with OgNasty's response above.  If anything he should be in the top 3 at minimum.

There's no formula, ranking, logic to the rankings...strictly subjective.

Look at how long he's been here, his activity, his trust history, his member status, his donator status.  I've done, personally, several escrow transactions with OgNasty, and usually they're performed expeditiously within the hour or so.

As an escrow, OgNasty, puts the "OG" as an escrow provider.  He's been doing it longer than pretty much anybody on this list.

That isn't an indicator of why you should be in the 'Big 5'. I haven't seen many escrows held by you, unlike devthedev who is very active in this area of Bitcoin.

Not to mention I have a higher trust rating than every member of the "big 5"

This is irrelevant, trust score shouldn't be an indicator of trustworthiness.

This is a weird accussation. Nonetheless I will address it. No, I am not devthedev. I don't know him personally (as with everyone else on the forum), but strongly believe he deserves a spot in the 'Big 5'.

Just sayin'.  Take these "ratings" with a grain of salt.

Of course! Everyone should conduct their own research before trusting even the most used escrow.

I will see what I can do to make these 'ratings' fairer .

I would trust older members, when Bitcoin was worthless to really know their intentions.

I would just like to interject that I have recently handled a transaction a few days ago. However it was only one and it was done between to newbie members.

I will continue to look at your escrow service and will eventually add you if you prove to be reputable.

I might have missed it but do you have an announcement thread?

Thanks I appreciate it.  I posted the Announcement in my first post here.
