Scam detection for merchant stashes
|
Ingame, in merchant stashes when trying to buy stuff in someone else's hideout, there could be an option to report an item listing as scam.
This could add it to a separate ingame window next to the merchant stash, where everyone can see all the reported items and their reported prices (along with a date of listing), and everyone could be able to up-/downvote the report with a lv80+ character. (There should be a filter to see reports only above a certain vote counts, and/or sorted by report date and similar.) Multiple highly upvoted reports could maybe also send the account to a manual review to potentially get sanctioned. Maybe the account name in chat could be flagged as a different color too. This could reset at the start of a new league, or after a month or something. Another option could be to just have an up-/downvote count for the player's merchant stash in general, but that sounds less effective. This is intended to detect people deliberately creating landmines (e.g. selling maps for 34c and putting a few in the mix costing 34d), and either punish them, or just highlight the account as a potential scammer for all buyers, using the community for validation, and without putting notable extra computation stress on the servers or employees.
