Paying people via MCM.

[babaooo]

Paying people through MCM would be a great idea for us to prevent scamming and track deals. Furthermore, we can also do it through a sort of guest checkout similar to the way you buy ranks or MCM accepts deals from a secure middle-man type staff member and you enter the amount you want. Im not exactly too clever on how this works but you could hire mm staff to track deals and pay both ends and make deals safer. Or, send money gifts to other people as a type of transaction via card. Please consider this and I apologise if this already exists/ if its a bad idea. I know theres middle men and paypal for this, but I just want to reduce scamming after what happened to me recently, and im helpless. Please take this into consideration.

This wouldn't make deals safer, it'd just put all of the chargeback risks and responsibilities on MC-Market.

I too, want some sort of automated middleman/escrow system, one without the involvement of people; but simply throwing MC-Market's PayPal right into the middle a is not the way to do it.
I've had something in mind, but it would need to be entirely custom developed, and right now we've got a lot more pressing issues. Such as the reputation system, the resource system, banned members, ect. The core of our website, functions that already run our community should be developed into a satisfactory state first, before even considering grand new features.

I'd still disagree if it didn't include paypal and only bank accounts through MCM itself - you can always call up your bank

This was just one way. I just wanted some way to middle man via MCM, rather than by ourselfs.

This has been suggested before and has been quickly shot down. In short, people would just buy stuff and chargeback, leading to tons of chargebacks on mc-market's paypal account and nothing but chaos for Mick to handle.

By the looks of it, none of those will be resolved in the time MCM stays alive. Because it seems like the whole staff team is stuck up on one side and then the users are stuck up on the other.

Denied, thanks for the suggestion.
