Personally, I've seen that the policy that if you don't respond within 24 hours, you automatically get banned for your own fault of not trying to fix the problem.

However I can imagine people snipe to make a scam report if someone's off on a vacation.

So what I think should be added which not only helps the suspect but the reporter himself too. We should allow that the person to have as much time to respond to the scam report (first message that is) as old the "scam is".

For example lets say Bob scams Steve. And Steve decides to open a scam report 3 days later. Bob should have 3 days to respond because Steve has delayed to make the scam report.

Why would we want the scam report not to be delayed? Because then it gives more accurate information and can solve everything much easier and gives the suspect a little more time to answer, rather than being banned for not saying a single word. This also makes the scammed user have a less reason to drag on the whole shit. We want it to be done asap, right?

Some bad things are :

-If you send in a scam report really late, the scammer has more time to scam others and will simply not reply
-It stresses out the scammed user even more after being scammed to have to urgently send in a scam report

Just a suggestion. Not sure if it's worth it, but some time or thinking could be put into this because I feel like having to wait 24 hours is pretty short because anyone could be busy right then. But then again we expect you to be active.

Otherwise I believe that those who haven't had a time to reply to their scam report should be given a specific date to arrange it. If that scammer really thinks he's innocent.

Well, normally M6Gaming gives a few members more then 24 hours. I seen in a lot of scam report he gives them 48 hours or 72 hours. But in a way. I think the way the system is now. Is pretty much reasonable. I do get vacations myself. But I also have to be responsible and check everything I own to make sure I'm not in any type of trouble. When you become an adult in like. Vacation or not. You have responsibilities you need to check up upon.
Yeah that's true. I just hate seeing people being banned invalidily.

Well it's there faults for not showing up.

I normally check my email because it's like the hub of every account I make on whatever site. And it'll notify me if I get issues. Normally the scam reports don't notify me. But M6 is nice enough to comment on my profile informing me there is a scam report against me. And that'll notify me. Users should be checking there emails more often now as they get older. And just take responsibility. It's there faults for not showing up.
Ah yeah that's true

The new TOS states you must be 13 and + to be on these forums.

Honestly if you are over 13 with no phone. You have issues. Some serious issues. A phone is a main priority in everything now. If anyone says they don't have a phone. They have issues and are just making excuses.
I completely agree with you but, don't be an ass. There are families that cant afford smart phones.

Actually my best friend didn't start using a phone until this year. Because he didn't often go places to places, so it wasn't necessary.

Also telling people that they have issue over not having a phone is dumb. It's better for yourself if you have less electronics.

More then enough time is given already, there is also an appeal system.

Infact, Mumzel - Give me a Scam Report where I issued a ban (with no response) from a 24 hour period.[DOUBLEPOST=1468028560][/DOUBLEPOST]

Give me a ban that's invalid, issued within 24 hours.

I have given atleast 48 hours on these cases, from what I see - you have no idea what you're talking about.

Firstly as a staff member I expect less sass and more maturity.

Here's an example, since that's what you wanted so desperately:

Firstly, from a Regular Member I expect common sense.

I wanted one because your suggestion revolves around more time.
Report was filed on Tuesday.
Member was last seen on February 19th, 2016.

For your kind and information, the current date is July 8th, 2016. I sent the Skype Username under the Profile a request, no reply - seems like a goner to me.

User Banned,
Report Closed.

There are exceptions on when to close or end a report. So me giving 3-4 days for a reply is ridiculous. I give 48 hours for a first reply, if there is enough proof to claim they scammed - case closed.

Got it?
