Must Send First Question

[garnett_21]

In my opinion i think a person's "must Send first" tag should be reviewed from time to time...not just placed on them and they have it forever...this would stop a lot of the trading problems on here....and If the Mods place a "pay first/send first" tag on alot of these new members that would help too...

MSF tags are reviewed from time-to-time. As for a tag on new members, that's what the <20 MSF rules are there for. It's clearly printed in the rules for all the new members:

II Must Send First:

As the #1 Trading and Discussion site on the net, we garner numerous new members daily. As a new member, it is imperative that you establish yourself on SCF. Therefore, all members with a trader rating fewer than 20 must send first on a transaction. It does not matter if you are buying, selling or trading. If both members have less than 20 feedbacks they must send at the same time. If one member has a permanent MSF tag, they must send first in every instance, even when dealing with new members.

Hmm that's weird, I was under the impression that once you had it, you have it for life. No amount of positive feddbacks can fix that (which is what I also seem to be reading from these posts.)

I can say for a fact being a former staff member that these cases are reviewed to see if the MSF should be removed, if there is good reason for it to come off then it will come off. However members that do have MSF Tag got them for good reason, the staff does not just go around and put MSF Tage on people for no good reason at all.

Well, in those situations, their potential traders should point out the rules to them. We can only do so much to make it known to people what the rules are.

Not sure where you heard that, but that is not the case at all. MSF tags are reviewed quite often, actually, as Daniel states:

When tags are put on an account for the first time, there is a good reason for it - but that does not mean that it is permanent.

OK before this gets out of hand I am going to close this up. I will address every issue in here with a PM to the person involved.
