    Today a friend of mine from SteamRep asked if I knew a guy just to make sure if he could add an offense...take a look at the image below, see what he has written on his profile...
    [​IMG]
    So he claims to be a LZ admin and a LZ middleman...

    is it worth adding a chat command (like !adminlist) to the server that brings up a list of LZ admins?
    might help traders feel more secure when using middlemen...

    hmm, thats on the server, and I believe there is already means to find out who's admin on the trade servers.

    In this case, he just abused his profile, without using LZ. (all those accounts are banned anyway cos of the scammer tag). It calls for a topic here on the forum (stickied) that lists the LZ Trade Admins, and whom would be MM (for instance, a MM would also be admin on some comm's). If there no defined MM's, name that so.

    True but many don't check that and some even create fake groups or fake group pages :/

    We can't really do anything about it can we? Unless he somehow gets trade banned. We could also warn the wantedgov.it community about his presence.

    Yes I installed a plugin already where you could find our Trade Admins in an adminlist.

    And we will make a stickied topic that lists the LZ Trade Admins and whom would be Middleman, (We have something like that already private, but it's necessary now to make it public.)
