So what i think is that we impliment nuggets on a userpage as an optional SHOWING. NO ONE WOULD KNOW UNLESS YOU WANTED TO.
This way its harder for scammers to scam. BEGGERS are always going to be there but scammers can be stopped one piece at a time.

For an example to make a SHOW NUGGETS BUTTON. or make them visable BUT ONLY IF YOU CHOOSE TO SHOW.

I don't know that I like this idea. The concern I have is that sometimes I keep a stockpile of a large amount of nuggets on my account so I don't have to buy them later for various reasons - and I don't really want everyone on my friends list seeing that and asking me if they can buy them, or selling me things for them.

Flipside, if someone is buying something for nuggets, they might just buy the nuggets right before they purchase it. I think including nuggets could be a pretty bothersome thing for people who are prone to begging.

So I'm sorry :( No support.

But dont people beg for nuggets anyway? If theyre on your friendslist and beg delete them or block them. Its an option now so its easier to work but if someone wants to buy a mega or shiny with nuggets or have an option to show it so you can ask
Hey do you have that amount of nuggets?
Sure lemme show you ill put it on my page
*changes it to show nuggets*
See?

Rejected here, here and many more.
Even if it's for those who's in their friendlist, why would it be possible to scam, then? If an user is lieing they are not exactly a 'friend', and even a 'friend' can, will and is prone to begging.

Maybe I'm just lucky: no one begs me right now. I feel like this is unnecessary, though, since if I were to sell a mega for nuggets, I would be doing it through the Trusted Trading Thread, or require the nuggets sent to me first - and how many that person happens to have is largely irrelevant to me.

I understand and respect your point, but it's something that I personally would not use, and do not think of as necessary; I'm sorry.

I don't see how making the nugget count visible is going to reduce scamming; can you elaborate on that?

Because to me, it doesn't prevent someone from having 4000 nuggets, saying they'll buy my mega Candaria for 4000 nuggets, me trading it to them, and them not sending it to me afterwards - which is still a major problem. In this scenario, trading the nuggets first is the best option and you don't need to see how many they have to do that.

Seeing the nugget count doesn't really stop someone from scamming someone else in my opinion, but I am open to your viewpoint on it. To be honest, I don't think most new players are going to go look at someone's profile and how much money they have or don't have.

I think a better argument would be made for making the TTT more prominent and more easily accessible to new players, which would help reduce scamming for the less fortunate.

Okay so a month after i first got here i traded my mega able lucario for nuggets.
I had no clue on the TTT
So i asked about the nuggets once it was traded and he jumped the lucario to a different account and told me the nuggets had an error.
How could i know he even had them

I know he has PD and could use that but not nuggets. If i saw the nuggets then i wouldnt have done the trade at all

I wouldnt have even considered the deal. I was saying making the nuggets optional to ve visable

Yeah, and that's an extremely unfortunate situation and I'm sorry that that happened to you.

But while you might have been dissuaded had you seen he did not have the nuggets to start with, if he had them on his account and simply never sent them, you would have fallen into the same exact trap.

If anything, I think it will lead to more problems because a new person might see the nuggets, think the person is honest (because they obviously do have the currency they are promising), and then be led into a trap of "trade it then I'll send the nuggets." The same could be said for the amount of PD the player has, as far as I'm concerned, and I wish I could turn my PD counter off as well - as I don't view that as anyone else's business but my own.

Yes but you can also screenshot and have more evidence in case someone does scam you. The more evidence the better
ive seen scammers go free because not enough evidence.
I screenshoot everything now.

So even if they transfer the nuggets or PD to another account you still have the evidence they did have it

I reported someone 3 times for possible scamming with nuggets and theyre still doing it to many people.
Nothing was done

Title: I don't like this suggestion

I agree with Noir, a person's nuggets aren't anyone else's business unless they want to make it yours. If you're going to make a trade, do it with someone you trust, or do it safely so you don't get scammed.

That's my two cents.
Not going to reply to this because it looks like no one can win with you.

Yes but itd be better if PD and Nuggets were optional instead of one always showing and one doesnt that would be more helpful for those who would like the option like many have suggested before me apperently.

It doesnt make more begger it makes more options.

What I think would be the better option to do is to let people who just join the game know about the TTT, have THAT in the walkthough of the site instead of/including the 'introduce yourself' section of it. Then they will KNOW about it and possibly use it instead of being scammed. Because like you said 'You didn't know anything about the TTT and was scammed'

Okay but what if your scammed on the TTT
Yes everyone will see but will you get your stuff back probably not.
Both ways youll have evidence of what happens.
One publically one not.

How about then having one for the Price check AND the TTT then there would be no reason for the player to be scammed. And at least if you were scammed on the TTT mods would be involved.

Btw finding the TTT is kinda hard if you dont know how to find it lol

Took me a day to find it because i couldnt figure out the trade page was a link page.

Plus i dont like waiting a couple days to trade somthing what if i got a different offer or somthing accidently happens?

Im just saying PDand Nuggets being optional to show would be easier for players to know if theywant to show what they have or not

Quote from FaeKatOkay but what if your scammed on the TTT

There is literally no way to be scammed when using the T³ - that's why it was made in the first place.

Quote from T³ - Trusted Trading ThreadOnce we've gotten everything, we'll distribute the goods to their respective recipients. If only the tiniest little portion of a deal won't arrive in time (see 'Rules / Instructions' for more information), the deal will be cancelled and everything will be sent back to their previous owners.


This just in.



@actual topic
I'm against it, basically for the reasons already stated by Noir (and a few other people). If anything, this would be the better solution imho.

@Liirah
I believe that is a great idea

But why does PD need to be shown then? If nuggets are worth more obviouly but why then make PD public for beggers to see?

Well i think that should also change to lessen PD begger

Pokebeggers will never go away

But we can at least stop some begger and most scammers
