So I am wondering if there could be a business for trusted Escrow middlemen. I believe that scams could be reduced if there were effective and trusted escrow positions. Obviously I believe I could perform this function however I have no reputation as it stands right now so I wouldn't expect anybody to use me. But don't we have some very well known members in the forum who might be good to use as escrow actors?

I offer this to the forum in the hopes of discussion, perhaps we could unlock a class of actors in this forum who perform the role of Escrow managers?
 
There is a company that does this but they are on the dark net!
 
Darknet is where it should stay. Seriously. Magazine subscriptions and research journals have no use for escrow services. It's nothing but a liability.

Im not talking about the markets im talking about a separate website that offers escrow between individuals.

Scamming vendors is also a liability, websites like fair trade are great to work with theres nothing wrong with escrow at all!
 
You see CnC5 I agree with you this seems to me like it could be a business for someone within the forum community. A sort of decentralized escrow based on what though? How do we determine reputation?
 
If the escrow manager knew nothing about the reason for the payment proceedings and only was there to be an impartial judge to arbitrate the contracts, you could have a safe, from an opsec perspective, transaction in which honest parties are rewarded and appropriately compensated, and dishonest parties most likely would be punished.

The biggest four issues I see are:

1. Escrow managers could be corrupted
2. Exit scams from escrow managers
3. Escrow managers can be fooled
4. Untested/untrusted escrow services are rife for scams and abuse
I can think of a few ways to mitigate some of these issues, but I don't think I can eliminate them all

Would love to know what you guys think.... If I can I would love to offer myself as candidate for a small proof of concept if the powers that be bless me.

Let the admin pick the person tho I wouldn’t send my money to someone that voted themselves into the position and joined yesterday just being real
 
Nah I get it I just figure I may as well establish that of course I have interest in doing this, it being the reason I made this thread. That being said I agree with you Kerby, leave it to trusted members to choose trusted people I think.

Yeah seems like the best option to let admin pick… but great idea
 
Ideas are one thing but action is another, is there any interest in this at all? Because I think the community could use a centralized escrow management system.
 
DNM's frequently have a questionable reputation for dealing in illegal items and services. Modeling the community after one risks drawing lots of unwarranted attention from regulatory agencies. Why go to the trouble for books and magazines?

And if, say, the IRS or some other agency manages to breach or confiscate the server, they get to come knocking at everyone's door for unpaid sales taxes etc.

  11. L @ Layne_Cobain: @maoi thanks for the input tho I think I’d def go the route of using hcg if I do go w TrT
  12. L @ Layne_Cobain: @maoi nah no fear of needles and if it made me feel a lot better no fear of being on it long term as who knows if my t will even rebound after 5 years on methadone not sure if that’s the norm I hope so…the more I research the more it seems like the best choice is to just go for it with TrT rather than trying to “middle” with Enclomiphene especially now that i know it probably won’t work being on methadone altho I am tapering off 5 mg biweekly so that’ll take a while I’m at 95 now from 120
  13. moai @ moai: @Layne_Cobain the longer you’re on it without using HCG sometimes, (meaning years) the harder it will be to rebound if you do come off. But I’m with you, at only 22, I’ve abused myself to the point I may NEED trt. Not to mention all of the benefits
  14. moai @ moai: @Layne_Cobain You don’t seem it, but if you are the type that’s afraid of needles for life, don’t sweat it. I’m natty atm, but from what I hear A) you won’t want to come off and B) if you implement HCG every once in a while to your protocol, you have a better chance of being able to come off T completely and restore all (or most) of your natty production. Of course, no guarantees and it is dependent on the individual, genetics, compounds and duration of exposure, etc.
  15. L @ Layne_Cobain: @tiquanunderwood when you began the Enclomiphene, were you already off opiates? Cause after further research I don’t think it’ll even work while still on methadone…I think trt with hcg to preserve fertility and ball size is the way to go for me. I just wanna feel better. Thanks for your input on the matter btw
