I've been wondering: Wouldn't it be nice to be able to block certain names from the Escrow list? I've never been scammed on escrow but it's just annoying when you think you found a bargain and the escrow inspection gives 1 tritanium.
right click, filter <selected seller>
If you can filter you can reduce the risk of being scammed and therefore give the scammers less of a chance to scam. Since they can scam, we should be able to put them on a personal blacklist.

Or what also would be nice is a report poster button to report scams like they normally do on other sale systems. And that those post are filtered out after x complaints.

Escrow. 80% escrow deals is almost scams.
The machariel is still there the vindicator if any appear are all scams. I did check 10 post on escrow and 8 where scams. 1 trit or vindicator that turned out to be vigilant
navy ammar for comerant and so on and so on.
Is not better that scammers get 1 warning and do they scam again account banned. Also if it is an alt. The whole account gets banned, paying customers need too know better.

I hate scammers, but anyone who falls for one deserves it tbh.
Scams clutter up escrow and make it hard to find what you are looking for, and that is annoying - but a ban for that?
Maybe they should ban the people who don't inspect before they claim, and when they do claim don't read the pop-up box listing the contents of the escrow before confirming.
Escrow is annoying, but there is nothing wrong with a tax on the stupid.

CCP have already said escrow scammign is part of the game - so they wont do anythgin about it.
Just chek the items before you buy or here is a even better idea - dont bother using it at all - practically all the items can be put on the market now so your not missing out on anythign big with escrow anymore.

Basically, if an escrow sounds to good to be true, it is.
A funny thing are the scam that have INSPECT PLZ behind the item they're supposedly selling, like anyone goes "ohh, must be a respectable guy if he wants me to inspect lets trust him and just claim the excrow".
Har har.

Because when you block someone he will create a new character to continue his scams?

He (or she :P) will not know he's been blocked since the blocking method I proposed is only personal. It filters out unwanted sellers.

Escrow... not forum... Escrow... not forum. I could repeat myself further, but I don't want to look like a flamer. Yes, ESCROW features should probably be added. Maybe, a seller rating system. Of course, you have to buy from them in order to rate them. It seems silly, but it would shut a lot of people up. AND, maybe they don't add the search features BECAUSE of this. People scam, and are free to do so in Eve. If one unit of Trit is labeled as a Megathron and you find it after the search... you're less likely to inspect it, me thinks. Personally, I say, if you're dumb enough to buy something without inspecting it... you deserve that 13 million ISK piece of Tritanium.
The Escrow = black market. You wouldn't ask your drug dealer for a search tool, would you? No, you give him your $20 and take what you can get. You just don't pay $100 for something that's only worth $5... you INSPECT IT first.

Yes, but if he's a scammer he will only assume he has been after a certain amount of time and will create another alt to sell his crap with. Thus inflating the amount of alts.

Tbh, stopbeing lazy, it takes 2 seconds to inspect the merchandise. and tbh, if you see something like a faction BS going for 100 mill, and don't inspect it only to gain 1 unit of trit, you deserve to loose your isk.

I'm sorry you didn't understand my comment, really I am. However, until you made that post I wasn't aware of your lack of comprehension skills.
The forum search request was because this topic comes up weekly, with every person who starts it thinking they have come up with some revolutionary suggestion.
We end up with another mindless thread rehashing the same topics over and over again. No wonder people get bored of it all.

MY comprehension has nothing to do with it. OP wants to change the escrow. You want to change the forums. These two mtch at the word change but nothing else. If you'd like the forums to have a search tool, please, by all means create another thread for it. Nobody is denying your right to want, or your right to express it. I'm simply making fun of you because you tried to steal the thread.

Dont forget those 0.0isk escrows. If you claim those then your the scammer. If you claim a Vigilant BPC for a 100mill thinking it was a Vindicator, then you were going to scam and got scammed. LOL at you.

No, that's still just a personal attack, and had nothing to do with the subject under discussion. You are doing exactly what you are flaming me for doing, how ironic.
Now for an example of how you should have replied:
"
Whatever Avon.
Anyway, I propose that the escrow window has user definable filter critera, which acts upon the data after it has loaded. As this is all done clientside it imposes no extra server load. Those filters could have the ability to exclude names from the search, and save a file in the cache containing the names to be ignored."
That would have been a far more effective put down, and would have avoided any clumsy hypocrisy.

ffs, this isn't about the idea we'd fall for them. its the fact i can't see a ******* escrow that is real, becuase they all get pushed off the damn page (which has a limit on how many it displays) by a a load of ****. i would never buy a lump of carbon thinking it was a charon. but something i MIGHT WANT TO BUY has been pushed off the page by that. and i'd block bookmarkking too

I also later suggested clientside filtering.

I always do that, except like some others said earlier: I'd like to end the annoyance and ban those from my list as soon as I find out they're trying to scam.
-------
Ofcourse it sounds to good to be true if a Raven is on escrow for 60mill, I would still inspect it though, hehe. And when I see 1 tritanium or 1 raven bpc 1-run instead I would like to have the option to ban the f-er from my list.

i am fully aware that scams are part of the game, but does that mean that escrow doesn't work very well for anyone who actually wants to use it now? you have to realise someone is scamming before you filter them anyway, so it won't really affect the ********s who fall for it. all it will mean is that ESCROW WORKS FOR SOMETHING OTHER THAN SCAMS.
i'd hate for scams to be removed from eve, they are one of things that make it unique, but thats no excuse for allowing scams to totally break another, more widely used game feature

A blocklist would be nice. Could be implemented just on the client side, so no lag argument against it.
I never got scammed, but these people waste my time. When I browse the escrow, it always goes like this:
'Ah, nice offer. Probably a scam, right ?' ... check ... 'Yes. scam. boring. Next one.' 
Ok, sometimes they are funny like yesterday: 'Charon for 90,000,000 isk and 1 carbon inside.'
I don't know what these guys think. If e.g. they try to be really clever to make it look like they are really offering a charon and forgot one '0' or if they don't think that far and just type in a price that comes into their mind.

If you don't check, you are stupid. Simple as that.
Same goes for people who miss a zero off the end.

Scams aren't a problem to me on Escrow.
The big problem is when the same handful of people sell their bundles of BPCs and I have to scroll through a few hundred BPCs for the same 3-4 ships.

Problem with that though is that quite often a batch of 20 or 30 battleship BPCs all sell very quickly, so you actually need to list them all.

I've always wanted Escrow Block... mainly because of the idiots who put up 50 raven BPCs at a time. It'll save space for everything else.
TBH, this is a much better reason why escrow fileter is needed. Scams are easily avoidable, this isn't.

For christ sake. This game is about using your brains. Simply put - do not spend money on escrow without checking - it's common sense. CCP deliberately take a low interferance approach on matters such as scamming, corp theft, etc... because this makes the game more diverse and interesting to play.
I am sick of reading posts by idiots like you who because you have not been using your brains start to copmlain about how this game works. If you want a game where you have to play nicey nicey and by the rules, where you can gt an expensive item back if you accidently sell it for less money than it's worth, where you cannot go around killing people in safe space, and where you wish to sit and accumalate ingame currency and do jack with it then go and play another game such as WoW or Guild Wars.
I for one love the risk factor involved in this game, and will quit as soon as CCP start listening to whiners such as you as I'm sure many others will too. Not because I am a escrow scammer or thief (although I have tried it before - my attempts failed), but because this game is a much better game than the competition in my opinion because of this.
If you don't like it - leave and play something else.

It Probably has already been mentioned but i think its the Information window in Escrow, The Server Should automaticly Paste the name of what is being escrowed into it.that way Scammers wouldnt exist.as they wouldnt be able to put in 1 trit and call it an apoc.

I'd like to see where in the game that escrow "scammers" are doing something that can get them banned. Please show me that one, I'd like to see it.
If you get scammed on escrow, slap yourself for not taking the extra two seconds to click on "inspect" and move on with your life with the thankful thought that at least somone didn't take your RL money for that oceanfront property in Arizona.
