deposit holder required

[dousche]

hi guys, iv agreed to stake a fellow blonde (im not sure if he wants to be named) for mtt sngs on full tilt. as we dont know each other particularly well iv asked if we can arrange a deposit-type scheme with a trusted blonde member. what iv asked is that he transfers $500 to someone on here to be shipped back to him at the end of the arrangement following permission from both of us. anyone interested?

[GreekStein]

dont stake someone you are unsure of in any way.

trust me.

I'm guessing you're shipping the money on Full Tilt? 

At first I thought this was a very sensible idea.  But if you're staking him for a lot more than $500, surely the $500 that's held in escrow is effectively your money from the staking rather than his?

[Royal Flush]

lol this is a joke surely?

If you are going to stake someone you need to trust them or there is no point, fck the escrow.

Seems a bit silly mate, after a couple of 'incidents' (see best of blonde) I think we all agreed that we should speak up on potential grimmers and stuff, so I think you would be well advised to ask around and get some reputable blondes to give you their opinions on said horse for your own peace of mind. If he doesnt want to be named, dont stake him.

Probably best avoid it alltogether, especially if he came to you looking for staking.

okies, so people think this im being pretty thick. im not gonna disagree... its a shame that money brings out the worst in people. seeing as you guys with much more experience than me think this is bad then i'll take your word for it. ta very muchly for the advice. stake cancelled

Why dont' you just ask people of their opinion of him if you are unsure?

Was it Fergus?  He paid me back.

Just to reiterate here what we've said before

You can PM any member of the mod/admin team if you wish to ask questions about a potential stakee

We sometimes, because of posts that have been deleted or subjects that have been raised to us privately, will have information that may help you, or we might be able to point you in the right direction for a reference

Several people will be able to vouch for this when they've asked, and its probably saved them a potential grim!

you've got 2500

post count is no indicator

p.s the character reference for your counterparty would have been fine, so there are no promises.

Its me.

I set up a staking thread a while ago which got little response. And he PM me recently.

I know that I dont know many ppl here or can be trusted 100%.

So I understand everyones point of view with trusting a stranger with your own money.
Just seems that ppl think the worst ppl when they dont know them
