GFT also having issues w/ Paypal

They have to freeze my account if you did so. Tell me this: You just hacked a bank account, where would you route the wire transfer to?

Honestly, it's not a hard concept to understand. They will freeze my account because, simply, they have no idea if (in this case) my account is an accomplice or not.

Right, then i hack an account, send money to buy something to amazon; next step, they freeze amazons account.

A lot of these disputes, although not entirely limited to, come from traders donating to get invites, getting the invites then 'claiming' their money back from paypal...

I had no idea that anything like that was even happening.

Seriously it never ceases to amaze me the depths to which some people will plunge.

Pretty much why Amazon doesn't deal with paypal, isn't it? Look you can keep trying to make me look like an idiot all day long, or you could just admit you're wrong about your theory and move on.
 
A: Paypal take the side of the "buyer" (donor) not the "seller" (tracker), its the same on ebay, if you get a lot of chargebacks because you did not deliver the goods (and even if you did deliver them), Paypal will suspend your account. well a tracker is the same as an ebay seller to Paypal, lots of chargebacks in a short period, and they will suspend the account.

B: Because the donators donate that way, I put on moneybrookers, and used to have Egold on the site, Egold I got 0 in 2 years, Moneybrookers I got 2 donations in 6 months, so of couse I took them both off. Also Paypal you can set it up so when someone donates, everything gets done auto for the member, other places will take more work (coding) if its even possible at all.

Yes paypal sucks for the most part, but its easy for the tracker and the majority of donors, so thats the choosen method, even though I am looking into other options atm for my site, its just whether the members will use the other options, thats the problem. (and whether the Host will as well).

I am not trying to make you look like an idiot (and if you feel that way i apologize), i admit i have not much idea on the matter. Only was trying to make sense of it. Also used the Amazon as an example, but could be any other established place that uses paypal.
 
I think anyone who has done business on eBay before can agree paypal sucks and sometimes shady as well. They almost never side with the seller so if anything goes wrong with any transaction, it would take quite awhile to clear and start moving again.
