Good day to all admins & staff.
Okay, here's the thing, i'm here just to ask one simple thing, but it's up to you guys to approve it or not.

I'm not saying that this is a must, just asking only.
Hope no one gets mad because of this.

Okay, here's what i wanted to ask.
You can see in the Member List, you can look for Admins, Forum Admins, Staff, Moderator, Elite, VIP, Newbie, Senior, Trade Enforcer members under the "Search and Filter Options" right? *refer to the picture below*



I would like to request if you can put "Safe Trader" in the Member List in the search option.

This is not a big thing though, just asking for a favor.
If it can be done, it is very much appreciated, but if it can't be done, then it is still okay.

Please tell me if my explanation is a little bit blurry, my english is not that good.

sorry i have to tumpang thread. i have a question related to safe trader.

just say someone puts the words "Safe trader = safe to trade with me" into custom title designation under the avatar and does not carry the safe trader tag, would that be misleading to newbies in the forum? and is it allowed?

Hmm, i've seen one guy did that.
He's a not one of the members that were given safe trader tag, but he put the safe trader tag in his signature freely on his own will.

Is this the same guy we're talking about?

yup. its "that" guy.

not to say whether or not he is trustable la. just that its kinda misleading dont u think? and its like kinda not fair the the "real" safe traders.

I'm not saying either it's fair or not, as those "real" safe traders were "awarded" which means they get the real safe trader tag that were given by the forum admins.

"That" guy did that on his own will, i don't have the power to say either it can be done or not, it's up to the forum admins themselves to answer that question.

Back to the topic, hey awh85, do you understand what i'm trying to point in the first post?
Just asking because i'm afraid if my explanation is blurry.

ya i understand. u wanna filter out all the safe traders in LYN thru the member search thingy right?

Yea.
Thank god someone understand what i'm trying to say in the first post.

I know who tat is as well and seriously, i wasn't quite happy with his trading style. Tried to get something from him once.

Back to the topic, the suggestion is good, but what are the needs of having that filtration option for safe trader, Shawty? Mind to explain more?

no one can put a safe trader tag on his / her own free will.

if there's anything that they did on their own, then it's not the officially approved safe trader already.

having said that - someone who FAKED his own safe trader tag - it's obvious that he's someone i wouldn't trust, may have done good trades but his / her action is a not one that i would respect.

btw mind telling me who that person is?

Hmm...
I don't know how to answer that question really.
Because i just want to look at how many members do get the safe trader tag.

I want to look at how many forum members in this forum that gets the Safe Trader Tag.

It's not a big thing actually, because sometime it's tiring to explain what is a safe trader tag to those new members that come to me and PM me asking what is a safe trader tag.

One of the way to explain it, is to show him, that how many members actually gets that tag.

Again, it's not a big thing actually, just asking for a favor, that's why i put in the first post "If it can be done, it is very much appreciated, but if it can't be done, then it is still okay."

It's this guy:
http://forum.lowyat.net/user/roberto.baggio

Is it a wrong thing to do or is it okay?

Anyway, @meno & awh85, is this the same guy we three are talking about?

Shawty, i guess me and awh85 are talking about the same person, but a different person from the one you're talking about.

This one that you just referred here is worst than the one i'm talking about. From my opinion, what this fella is doing is totally wrong. Too misleading for new members.

Huh?
Still have other members who did that?

I thought there's only one guy who did this kind of things.

I think you should put him in here, since goldfries himself already ask the question here liao.

the guy shawty mentioned is more misleading than the other guy. at least the other guy you know la he do his own one.

this one he use LYN official safe trader tag image.

OK. NUCLEAR LAUNCH DETECTED!!!!!!

Okay.
Now, back to the topic.

Can it be done?

from a programmer point of view - it definitely CAN be done. it's just whether is it feasible to proceed with such a mode, depending how much work (time and effort) involved to modify the code and how much gain from such implementation.

generally i like the idea even though i won't be using it. only useful when i want to know who are in ST list. other than that, who cares cos i just buy from whoever i want.

Seems like kinda hard.
Sorry to the admins & and staff if what i've asked here is a lil' too bit of demanding.

Can be done, although it's easier if all the STs were put into their own member group.

Can, but as usual, not many would report to the group.

make a new group name Safe Trader..

Put all the Safe Trader into that group and it can be view like others (admin, trade enforce n etc)

no need to modify IPB coding

but its depend to admin either want to do it or not ..
