[Denied] banned from marketplace?

Yeah I think those are both great ideas. Marketplace banning would be great, if good enough proof is provided for a scam.
I also think that L33T and higher is a good idea as well, because at least we know that these members are willing to donate to the community, and will have something to lose if they do decide to scam.
HackForums staff have stated previously that they don't want to ideally get involved in deals, forum-banning is implying that you did scam, and staff do not want to get involved.
Staff WILL NOT take action upon scam reports. They are just there, to inform other members who may be trading with the accused scammer.
I like the idea
And i think its great, both (and i know it would prevent me from getting in there but id eventually make it :D lol) are. btu i doubt Omni would do it..
Tho i like your latest suggestion. It is probably the best way to do it
The first idea is alright, but really if there is sufficient evidence that they scammed, staff can and will ban them currently.

The second idea fails, if you look in almost any successful sales thread over half the buyers are very new accounts.

So its not really staff taking care of it, more like the community helping itself

( i know this is far fetched

You mean a moderator?
