Beg to disagree. Police and justice system tends to be quite ineffective. Should we abandon it, so we don't get false sense of safety?
The forum is quite different from an actual justice system, but, why should the forum adopt a system which would be largely ineffective in solving the problem?
I understand the argument that moderating scams would help in the very least to prevent proven scammers from posting on the forum, but the can easily create new accounts and continue with a new identity or shift their focus to other social platforms by attracting their victims to telegram or discord.
There's also the case in which you suspect a user of scam, but have no proof of it, who decides on such cases and where would the line be drawn?
if we are all responsible for our own security. Why should we tag someone promoting ponzi that promises 200% daily profit, people should use their own head and know that something like that is not possible. Yet we do it all the time, myself included.
Cause it's a community oriented forum with no central authority. The users are allowed to give their suggestions on what could be or not be a scam, offering their evidence to that effect; Everyone else is allowed to make up their mind using the suggestions of others as pointers.
