Smugglers Job Board - Interested?

[Croft]

I got a PM a few days ago that raised an issue that I'd previously overlooked, mainly how this Board could be abused and exploited by those wanting to ruin peoples fun.
Originally I planned to use comm posts to set up the deals so that folks could use it in their RP such as Police using it for sting operations or as parts for an SRP and as leverage for the Rat Pack, but the downside is it opens to door for people to metagame or otherwise hassle anyone using the Board.
The only alternative I could see is to use PM's to set up the deals but that would take away all the potential RP usage and generally more annoying to sort out.

Since theres no win-win option I'll put it to the community to decide what they'd prefer:

Comms

---

Pros: Usable in RP and SRP's, easier to keep track, promotes the Board.
Cons: Easy to metagame and exploit, could lead to hassle for those posting jobs


PM's

---

Pros: Harder to metagame, jobs would be completely anonymous.
Cons: Removes potential for RP, doesn't promote the Board or the Rat Pack, annoying to keep track.


I'm also looking at fees for creating a job, either a single price (e.g. 1 million) or a percent of the reward (e.g. 10% so a 5 million reward job, would have a 500k fee). What do you think?
