Rip l33t's
Kinda disappointed that we also lost access to the trust scan feature. but I guess if we did have access to it the epic upgrade would be pointless ?

No it does a lot more than that. Increases mailbox storage, lowers posting delays, search delays. It's actually quite useful

I wouldn't do that if I was you, Omni has revoked their access for a reason. Bypassing Omnis wishes will only end up with you getting banned or warned, or he'll be super savage and just demote you to l33t

Yeah normal users can't check now. I always check mine since I have a Dynamic IP , just don't like the Red in my trust scan haha. Would assign Static IP soon but I don't know if my ISP would charge for it.

Misuse of the feature is surely one of the reasons it was restricted.

Misuse in what way?
Data collecting without omnis conscent?

Members used it as a tool to "bust" and "expose" multis. The amount of multi reports I've received based on information gathered solely from trust scan is immense.

Correct my friend.
Also, you can still find most (if not all) deal disputes if you actually use a search function and search for threads that have member's UID in the title. 99% of deal disputes have that, so it just took the "convenience". Also, that convenience could back-fire as regular members can't add to DD database so again being lazy to search can result in you being scammed even if you had trust scan feature.
Check reputation, search UID, check comments on sales thread. Those are always good ways to go.
