All these trading questions

Crumpet 8/12/2012 11:18 am 2270

I'm not sure what to do about all these trading questions. I'm approving them for now, but I want you all to know that I don't recommend that people trade on this website. It doesn't currently use an encrypted connection, and it's dangerous to exchange addresses with strangers on the internet. If you're going to do it anyway, you should use a P.O. box if possible. Another problem is scamming; it's not uncommon for people to scam others out of kandi. So any trading you do on this site is at your own risk. I cannot be held responsible if the person you're trading with scams you or comes to your house and kills you. Thanks happy

@HotSingleMomsInYourArea: I almost made a kandi trading website at one point, even started coding it and bought the domain name but then I decided there were too many legal risks involved, especially when it's mostly minors who want to trade. There's too much risk involved, both with scamming and predators.

When the other site was still around, more kandi traders were over 18. Kandi kids are younger now.

The safest way to trade is at conventions,raves or like anywhere safe irl

@karkalicious_vantastic: the site doesn’t exist anymore. Someone bumped a thread from 2012 back when it still existed.

But if you really want to trade online there is an entire site dedicated to it. This is a patterns website, not a trading one.

i really don't think that monitoring the messages are fair. I do all my trading that way cuz there is no one near me. I do think that the ppl who are blaming u should be kicked off for their own stupidity

From now on I will be deleting all trading questions, because people have decided to start blaming me for getting scammed (even for trades that weren't set up through the questions). I suppose that was inevitable. I'm not going to monitor everyone's messages for trade requests (yet) but that might become necessary. There are really only two options: 1) Allow and monitor trades, 2) Stop all trades. 2 seems like the best option to me.

Yeah, I really don't condone trading on here either. Especially since without moderation we don't know if the people even should be giving out their addresses. Because honestly I think trading (online) should only be able to be done by people over 18 straight face

Yeah, KandiTrade is safer for trading, but this site has more active members so there are more people to trade with. I have recommended KandiTrade to many people on here, but I don't want to officially start sending everyone there because that would be a really foolish thing to do as a webmaster. Here, go to this site instead! Lol.
