I feel the need for a cap on transactions allowed on the website or to be discussed while present on the forums should be limited. Also large fees and charges should be watched by a selected group of auditors.

Laundering money is a big issue and very illegal. Implementing some sort of control and a sort of watchdog group to patrol for this. Could help stop scammers, exploiting and also real world illegal activitys.

I am aware that the likes or PayPal and certain financial institutions prohibit transactions of certain amounts. My point is to monitor accounts that seem to have odd and irregular patterns.

In the long run it would I believe counter act scammers, pyramid schemes as well as exploitations. This would be the primary goal.

Lastly what I am suggesting doesnt have to be implemented exactly but there should be some sort of overseeing of certain activities. Primarily in the middlemen area and services.

I honestly dont know if this is a good idea but seems in my own head to be something worth some looking into.

All feedback and opinions are welcome, I'll not argue my case. This is merely a suggestion.

I took the past 5 minutes to think about this. Lets be real, who the absolute fuck is gonna money launder on a minecraft forum from 2014? Normally when money laundering occurs its in MASSIVE amounts, like opening a business amounts. Not like 1-2k here and there.

It's not they have responsibility. It's just an idea to add extra safety for the consumers of services and products on the site. It I believe counter act alot of scammers aswell. My opinion again. I appreciate the thoughts and honesty.

I think that even if there was a transactional limit, of let's say $10,000 max, right?, if I was supposedly going to launder that money, in theory, I could get around the limit by breaking it up in to 5 $2,000 transactions, couldn't I? I don't quite see how the limit would change anything. As others have stated, I think it's more on the premise that MC-Market is a platform for people to advertise/introduce their product, and that MC-Market can try it's best to limit illegal activity, but it's not fully their responsibility, should such action occur.

Sounds like a great way to encourage and or force our users to take their transactions off-site in order to hide them from us.
Which would of course, put them at a significantly higher risk of being scammed.

The benefit, if any, isn’t worth the cost.

Money laundering is very easy on PayPal which is the sad thing. You could resell the accounts, though you can do that with anything. I mean who the fuck would spend $1k on a Minecraft forum? I agree it should be moderated better

If someone would want to money launder through this site, they would have more success just buying the whole site to launder through. Then guess what, the rules ain't gonna mean shit lmao.
