Why do you guys ban scammers?

[nYXem]

Guys please read this part again

Also, if you mark a member as "Scammer" that will keep you safe from that guy in other sites too where he's not yet banned. Say a guy is banner here in KWWH for scaming, but not yet banned in DP. So he may scam there too. But when you see him there, you will be cautious since you already know that he scammed here in KWWH. Go the point?

do you even know that people high up the rank here even scammed people?

So, what will you say then.

[soft2050]

what makes you think that they will still use the account after they get 'Scammer' rank.. ?

Agree with this lol

They will just make a new account and start scamming with it

So say if we put them into this "Scammer" group right, what's stopping them from making an account on DP or whatever site under a new name?

Nothing, so i fail to see what good this would be.

But there's a problem.
Say, If a Respected member scams someone (which is quite possible)
Will he be given a "Respected Scammer" rank ?

[GeeZus]

Respected Scammer ? You cannot be serious lol.

If he has "Banned" user title, it's more than obvious that he did something bad, hence there's no need for the "Scammer" user title.

What's wrong with simply banning them? It's not like those who are looking for them can't Google out their username(s) , email(s) , or domain(s) of their site(s)...

If he gets marked as a 'Scammer' here, he'll simply get a new nickname, no one is that stupid...

That.....

Remember Elio? Respected member, SuperMod and what not. Then, bang, he scammed.

Now, I think this is not the only site where he earned some reputation with that username. So if you see him selling something in some other forum, you will be away from him because you know he scammed someone here.

And just think, if you get banned in one forum, would you change your username in all other forums where you're registered with the same name? Obviously not.

I don't understand what's the harm in trying. Sticking to the current policy is not helping, so just try a new policy, if it also doesn't work, come back to the current one. Simple.
