Usually, when looking at refs, you have to look at those who have given the ref also. For instance, you're hardly likely to take a new member's word over a senior/VIP member. Obviously, you can usually work out when refs are made up, especially if by new members.

that is a problem rude, if you look at the original kingdong thread, a junior member was slapped down for saying something against a senior member, but time showed that he was right, maybe if members were not quite so quick to jump on people and instead of assuming that just because it says newbie here they are new to the internet or other forums, they decided to ask for some refs it would help, i mean we all see the regulars in there each day but for example i've never sold or bought anything in there but if i gave a warning about someone people would take note, however what if i was admin on a different forum and had just joined here? would anyone pay any attention to me? why not, what i say would be just as valid surely?
