We see it almost all the time. Money hungry morons make fake t-shirts promising a special capability for someone's place. (Ex: http://www.roblox.com/Driveblox-Unlimited-Admin-Works-Read-Desc-item?ID=82030984)

The sad thing is that people actually believe that these items are real and buy them, they are later disappointed that it doesn't work, and instead of complaining to the shirt maker, they complain to the place maker.

So I've come up with a solution.

A fraud meter.
Every player created item page (even places) will come with a fraud meter. Players will be able to rate said items with the meter only ONCE. To ensure that they only rate it once, once a rating is set, the user's username and IP are remembered, and they get a cookie that disallows them from rating the same item. Yes I know usernames, IPs and cookies can be deleted, but would a person really be that desperate to highly/lowly rate an item?

Anyways, the rating would look like this

TRUSTWORTHINESS_
-Trustable
-Good
-Ok
-Bad
-Untrustable

The ranks of trustworthiness are self explanatory, so I won't go into them.
Anyways, this can help a lot with fraudulent items and save users thousands of tickets and robux.

comments?

I'm not so sure...

There are always errors, and this can lead to more raging than we already have. I see people accuse innocent people of these kinds of things all the time.

@me

People can also gang up while trying to get someone banned, and if ROBLOX can find a fix for that, then they can for the fraud rating.
