Can we please move all bonds and loan requests/offers to buy and sell and free Market Discussions forum for actual market discussions? Most of these loans are moronic attempts at scam or building fictional reputation anyhow, I'd rather not see them here any more.

You can't discuss stuff in buys/sells. And those loan requests definetly need to be talked about. Besides there really aren't that many of them. Hence I vote no.

pretty much the end of this discussion, either buy/sell needs to allow discussion, a new board/exception needs to be created or we stick to the status quo.

you can't just shove them off and expect loans to still work

Firstly, Brewlar, you do not participate in this forum section (thankfully), so your opinion doesn't really matter.

Secondly, you are an unapologetic troll in the forum sections you do participate in, so your opinion doesn't really matter.

Thirdly, this subject has been discussed at length by people who do actively and helpfully participate in this forum section and it has been decided (several times) that it would be lunacy to move loans to Sell Orders or Want Adds because loans cannot be conducted under the strict rules of those forum sections.

Fourthly, topics in this forum section remain on the 1st page for weeks after the last post, because there is almost no traffic. This forum section has been as dead as a doornail for several years, so removing what little content remains is just plain daft.

Of course, feel free to post some actual justification for your suggestion, if you have any.

Wasn't this discussion just had? Isn't this a duplicate thread?

Yeah, it has slipped to page 3.

I far prefer the other thread, it had more bald heads in it. Let's lock this one and bring back the other one.

Then I'd have to check more than one forum section and I really can't be bothered.

The buy/sell order forums have moderation rules that allow people to use the ISDs to shut down any criticism of a loan, which basically means two things:

1 - ISDs are actively helping carry out scams
2 - ISDs have a considerable advantage when scamming on their alts that's not available to other players.

Scamming should be carried out with players on an equal footing. That is not possible if loan requests are in Buy/Sell orders unless those forums have their rules changed.

Lets just go ahead and lock this thread up since ISD do not make the rules as to where posts are supposed to go.
We follow the Rules set by CCP Games and follow our instructions from CCP to attempt to keep things in the right place so that relevant discussions can be seen by relevant people.

If you would like to suggest a diferent forum section, Features and Ideas is the place to make that suggestion.

There are also a number of Community Devs who follow other media platforms like Facebook and Twitter.
