Chargeback.

Muunkee

We al know what chargeback is and what it does so I'm going to get straight to the point.
Have it so you have to register a username, and need someone to confirm it, before you can sell a rank.
Example. Bob123 sells VIP to joe123.
Bob123 HAS TO ENTER HIS OWN USERNAME IN, and 'gift' the rank to joe123.
Not entirely sure how this would work, but maybe we could get a helper + to confirm, yes, Bob123 is buying a rank for joe123.
This way, is Bob123 chargebacks, joe123 loses a rank but isn't banned, and bob123 has to pay back the fee.
I have no idea how possible this is. but I'm putting the idea out there.

That's a good idea, but I think I've seen it somewhere before... :eek:

The problem with rank sales right now is that they aren't tied to the account of the person making the purchase. Therefore, if they charge back, they hurt other people. It needs to be changed so that a rank seller enters their own account first, then buys the rank and gifts it to someone else. Then if they charge back, it shuts down the sellers account instead of the buyers account.

Perhaps it could become a gift-code kind of thing? Where you buy a code and it goes under your account. That way, chargebacks only affect the person who charged back

And I heard it first from Onis, who said back at the beginning of August that he plans to do this. :)

This is true, but, ya know.

this sounds kinda cool....
Maybe if you buy a gift code, you could have some extra reward, that way people wouldn't lie. You give the gift code to the person who's buying a rank, they redeem it, and everyone is happy.

But we aren't purchasing the ranks we are donating and then receiving perks upon doing so :)

this is true.
However if someone were to chargeback on me, although I purchased from a rank seller, that would suck.

Yeah well it's always a pain in the bum if that happens.
