The original poster of this item lied about literally everything on his registration. I don't see him being allowed to be a member for that reason. After he was banned he emailed asking why. I told him because of a bad phone number and a fictitious name to start with. He then started asking questions and asking for assurances about his info. I just told him no thanks and please go away. I don't want to play games with registrations.

personally I think a 90 day waiting period is an excellent idea. i'd guess most crooks come on here looking for a quick hit...who's going to wait out the 90 days before trying something fishy?

I think it'd be an effective deterrent!

I am always open to suggestion. My concern about this, as I have stated, is enforcing it as well as potentially ADDING security for a scammer. Let's say we have 90 day waiting period. Everyone starts to think we are even safer than we are. Then the scammer who signed up 91 days ago comes on and scams someone, as that someone who got scammed, had a false sense of security. As I also said, show me 1 person scammed from a newbie, who is out money, and we will continue this discussion. Until then I think our members do a fantastic job of letting me know of potential issues. When reported they get looked into immediately too. And lastly to all or our members, please, please continue to be our eyes and ears on the board.....thanks to all..

I should add that I don't know if this OP is a scammer or not but he lied about everything to get in....so was quickly shown the door out.
