mods don't care, all they care about is giving infractions for bumping threads. there just like parking ticket officers. they have a huge hole in there system which brings in all the scammers and they keep coming back because they know its so easy.
It's not just the mods fault here. I think people need to also be a little more aware of who they are dealing with and use better business practices. Use COMMON Sense. I know there are occasions that someone scams someone who is practicing due diligence on their part, but IMO that is fairly rare. Usually when someone gets scammed here (or claims they are being scammed) I find that they did not perform due diligence on their part. A little research goes a long way. Don't get me wrong here.........I am not condoning any of this scamming bullsh!t and I know there are issues with scammers here at DP, but we all need to look at ourselves and help the community to continue to make this the best webmaster forum out there.
true there is no way to prevent it and because this is the largest forum out there for webmasters its going to happen but i think the mod list should be expanded to more active mods or ones who actually look outside of general chat and political chat. There are a few good mods who do there job and some that have given me infraction when i did wrong and i do not go against that. Its just sad when the same people come back to these forums and scam people and all the mods do is close threads and give the impression "oh its not our problem", not to mention most of these threads from scammers never get closed and when they do they already scammed numerious people and its to little to late.
