Scammer Forum Section

It is often that people love to post in General Discussion (and less often in Rant) about being scammed and scam accusations. People new to MT would never really know that there is an existing Screenshot Thread and a Discussion Thread for Scammers. To make forum section that just screams out "POST IN HERE IF YOU HAVE BEEN SCAMMED" would really help easily gather info on scammers in one section.

It should go near the top, like somewhere between General Discussion and Screenshots. In it can have two Subforums. One for accusations/discussions without screenshots and one for those with screenshot evidence.

So basically...

Forum: MyTrickster's Hall Scammers
Subforum: Scam Discussion and Suspicions
Subforum: Scam Screenshots

Well the names of the forums is all up to you. Questions about if someone is a scammer can go in the MT Hall of Scammers portion.

Rejected. Rants in rant, accusations in the appropriate thread.

Reasoning:

First, the presence of a new forum will not keep people from posting in an incorrect section. We've seen this with the guide section and the creation of the guide group - people don't use it. Instead they post guides in other sections. Because people will not use the new section this will increase the amount of moderation required.

Second, a dedicated forum will be a breeding ground for flaming and insults. In my opinion we're pushing the limits as is with the existing thread. Anyone clever enough could use a conversation out of context to label someone a scammer. The accused will defend themselves, people will take sides, and it will get ugly. My ban count will be over 9000.

Third, these people scam others so we reward them with their own dedicated forum? Lol no.
