Hello,

Quick question.

Let's say one of us gives the catalogue on a discord conversation, and that client comes to you to snitch.

Would you take this screenshot seriously, and issue a warn/ban?

If so, how come this is not the same attitude you'd have towards scammers?

For example, if we post a screenshot of someone scamming us on discord, all we can do is give negative feedback, as you don't investigate discord trades.

Will we start taking discord trades seriously, or only when it benefits you so that people can pay for sticky threads?

We require video evidence in most cases if the issue occurred on Discord. This would include affiliate link violations.

Scamming normally requires us to investigate many things, which is already a time consuming process when it occurs on-site. When the scam occurs off-site, it takes a considerable amount of more time.

In comparison, there is nothing to investigate with an affiliate link. It's very easy.

1. Link is posted.
2. Discord username matches to the username posted on Epicnpc

We do the same for off-site scam claims if reported his way. For example, the buyer pays and the seller blocks the user. There's really nothign to investigate other than to check the chat username belongs to the Epicnpc user. We will request video for these claims and ban once confirmed.

Someone mentioned this change favor who, definitely absolutely 101% Bigger seller, getting rid of all the small fry in just one shot. Gotta pity the small/new seller. Imagine wanna try and compete with big seller with cheaper price, just starting to sell so naturally lower budget and when you look at the banner/sticky price, $100, $150 (subject to availability lol), you are no longer able to start compete as an alternative option with whatever better perks you can offer. Newbie effectively get official notice that you are not welcome to compete. Bring in something new or just go to another place.

Someone also mentioned private messages on other social media to provide links. Imagine you are selling on multiple platforms, you have to be a racist and ask everyone where do you come from. Playerdown.com? g3g.com? Sure, here is the product we recommended... Epicnpc? Out you go. LOL...
Big seller can be so EASILY bully people out because they can afford hire one full time worker, tell the worker, hey, create as much social account as possible then look for whoever selling the same product, chat them once everyday with different account and tone and ask them to provide link and BOOOOM.
[EDIT: I believe you can delete sent message in most social chat, you as a seller can confirm the customer is there to reply, send the link to them and immediately delete in 5 seconds after that and there is no proof, if I ever see some buyer able to whistleblow and provide a video of the seller after they sent the link and remove the message seconds afterward, I can 101% damn sure it is a paid actor because who on earth screen recording while chatting lol, but hey, it still within the rule ]
This is hilarious in one way or another, what a crazy idea, nice for neutral to sightseeing. We used to see epicnpc waging war against a particular competitor, definitely looking forward to enjoying epicnpc waging war against the entire business forum. Epicnpc vs the world. You either be Epicnpc exclusive seller or you can join forces with 10 20 competitors websites out there. Gonna be interesting to see and observe how it will pan out in the next few years.

Funny thing is I just found out about this thread and news announcement after being chained locked access to the sites, major announcements should at least be put on a thin bar on the top like the discord warning bar. Don't spend time here apart from login to renew ads. So much confusion is left with such short clarification.

Just a simple glimpse when reorganizing my thread already found at least 8 sellers with 73 threads and still counting including power users. Can effectively put each one of them on a short vacation for spam and rules violation. 1 warning 2 points, and a ban after 3 warning with 72 hours at most to change and edit not only the warned thread but everything related in hand. Wait until I am free...

Also @EpicNPC Mod pls check your PM when you are online, I trying to but failed to understand my last/latest warning from you just so I can rectify it asap once you clarify the detail as it seems like is not related to any threads?
