Re: Money transfers need to be banned from 2p2
At least this way it's contained to one thread, and people can do their own research. It was locked for only a couple of days, and already a half-dozen threads had popped up. Even if those threads are not allowed, they'll stay up for brief periods until a mod gets to them, which allows enough time for the not-so-bright to get themselves scammed.
My thoughts:
1) Stupid people will find another way to get scammed - short-lived disallowed trading threads, PMs, shadier forums, what have you.
2) Intelligent people are able to use that thread as a valuable resource.
3) There are a few people somewhere in between the two that will get scammed in that thread, that might not have otherwise. However, I think there are many many more that are helped by thread.
Edit to add: What Mike said.
