    A suggestion about eBooks section

    The market is flooded with shitty and old, leaked methods. The new approval system is a step forward but there is still a lot left to be desired.

    Simple meaures should be taken such as:

    - googling the title or a portion of the ebook
    - running it through Turnitin
    - checking LF or the other leaked ebooks sites for matches
    - verifying original owner's identity and date of sales starting


    I know it's a lot of work for mods but it really needs to be done.

    I would personally be willing to buy Turnitin or even personally check each and every eBook if it means the security of the market.

    That's just a suggestion of mine, if you think I'm wrong then by all means ignore me xD

    That's a great idea, so we don't have to waste money on buying Leaked and Common Ebooks found on MPGH's Rival Forums

    Those are nice measures which could surely be implemented someday, but honestly, I think it'd become too much of a hassle for the Marketplace Minions/Moderators/Global Moderators to do so over time as after all, MPGH is big hacking site and so is the Marketplace in terms of sectional activity traffic. But again, all of this could be avoided if people actually had any sort of common sense.

    I think that, if anyone is going to spend 50$ or so on an e-book, they can surely do that research themselves, other then that it's great stand, and has to be done, eighter by the buyer or a minion.

    Feel free to leave a thanks or +rep if I helped you.

    Definitely something that should be implemented in the near future. I think that these measures should be taken in bit by bit for adjustments to the new system

    I think that vouchers can actually confirm that you will make the amount of money specified as well because alot of these ebooks say you will make tons of money but you really dont
