Banned scammers count

[Drake]

I have a thought of this cool feature. Example you got scammed and you made a scam report and the user get ban. For helping the forum getting rid of scammer you should get something like "Successfully banned # scammers" or something similar. I think this would be pretty neat.

I would have like 5+ sadly.

Haha

I'm sorry, but as much as I want the scammers gone, I don't believe we should necessarily "reward" those who make reports on people who end up getting banned with anything more than the feeling of doing the right thing.
Last thing we need is the forum to become some sort of witch hunting game. Competing to get the most people banned.
It's just.. It would be no good for our community, especially the feeling of safety and familiarity we want to encourage.

Scam reports are already a sad necessity as it is.
Yet even as they are, there are already people making them for no reason whatsoever, except with maybe the hope to cause drama, and attempt to get another user banned, and that should not be the goal. I can only see this suggestion worsening that.

Thank you for the opinion I thought it would be a cool feature like reaction

No, but here's why.

People will want that number to be as high as possible, just like people do with messages, rep, reactions etc.

It would kill peoples compassion, people sometimes have genuine problems and it would make people less understanding and more egger to make a scam report to increase that number. Where they could have been more understanding.

And lets be honest, no one could bet M6Gaming, with the amount of banned scammers

Justis and Fire summed this up pretty well. Denied.

Thanks for your suggestion.
