@Tempest, with such an attitude i would not be surprised if tc sellers would rather ignore the whole procedure completely and go grey
this procedure does not bring any benefits for parties involved, hence questioning the reason of following it altogether, and the inconvenience it brings clearly outweighs the "prevent scam" notion

If that's just fine to you, then I don't even know what to say...
Obviously this is a different conversation, but if you feel there was serious staff misconduct, PM the offenders to try to hash it out and make a staff complaint if you still aren't satisfied. Harassing users is very serious on its own, and shouldn't be tolerated by anyone for anything.
I do still think this thread is dumb, which is why instead of posting here I'd instead opted to give my thoughts in the S&I thread -- and, while I haven't yet deleted/seen any deleted posts, I was serious and and still hold that sentiment... If you thought I would do any different than I have been, I'd say that you severely overreacted.
I wanted to engage with the discussion going on in this thread to justify my post but I'm still not interested in people only saying that it's inconvenient and that just about any effort is excessive effort... Anyone looking to weigh in on and brainstorm alternate systems is encouraged to post here: http://forum.toribash.com/showthread.php?t=625814
just remove verification of rhread and make that only verified sellers can open threads. that woulf fixx all and it would make stuff go faster.

A nifty developer could implement a market for TC, in addition to the regular item market.
That would be the most userfriendly solution. I have no idea what is going on here, but at first glance the current implementation of TC sales looks like it could be from the 90's.
Licensing TC sellers would be an easily improvement. You could make it a rule that any TC sales of non - licensed sellers will be banned.
In addition you could create a forum tool that allows quick documentation of all transactions - a tool other than a thread that needs to be manually opened and closed by staff.
I don't understand why a thread needs to be reviewed by staff every time. Perhaps to make sure that a seller has the TC at the point where he is offering them?
An automated TC protocol tool could easily check if a user has the TC.
You could model it something like that:
TC Seller sends buy request to user -> System checks if user has TC -> User receives buy request and confirms it -> TC get transferred to User -> User pays for TC with Paypal.
In case of a scam the staff can manually revert the transaction.
I assume that the current system is in place due to the fact that the staff cannot revert Paypal transactions. If you really wanted to make it foolproof you'd need an escrow system, but I don't know if that is possible with Paypal's transaction fees and whatnot.

Sometime last year me and pouffy had a similar idea, licensed sellers would have to state the amount of TC they wish to sell and have it sit outside of their account somewhere to ensure buyers actually receive the TC and so TC doesn't just disappear out of no were due to the automation of it, with this Nabi could sell TC on the same platform at an average rate of what other sellers are selling for. There'd have to be incentives for buying from nabi as I'd assume they'd sell at a higher rate but include daily sale items and Nabi could potentially make money as well.
