Professional escrow is better , many Hero members had scammed in the past and many Hero member accounts are also sold.

Terminated.
Professional escrow service is better.
Accounts on bitcointalk can be bought!
And the service could be corrupt. What is your point?
Try escrowing 100 000 BTC with them and see what happens.  Wink

Better use BitHalo or Blackhalo and you do not need third party escrow:

Hi,

There is also this list:
https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/list-bitcointalks-escrow-providers-ranking-blacklist-avoid-scam-276897

Several people are on both lists.

Disclosure: I have also been contacted to provide escrow for this coin; I have done the escrow of a few other coin's initial coin offerings. I can't say anything about the success or failure of the coin itself, but the launching and escrow of all previous coins I handled have been satisfactory to both the developers and the investors.

We would only used a trusted escrow member though, one of the escrow members from the official escrow thread.

Hoping to get a few more votes in guys. Still too close. We are thinking about an escrow from a trusted hero member, combined with a multi-sig wallet for security.

I won't be investing but I would go with a professional company. They are likely to have all the legal paperwork in order to act as an escrow. And that is important just in case an un-happy investor wants to sue.

There is a user here who offers an escrow service, and this particular user is a real loose canon and I wouldn't trust him any further than I can throw him. Professional service indeed.

We will be launching Greenbacks soon, information about it will be provided in a pre-ann, at least 24 hours before launch. Our question is, when it comes to an escrow for an ICO, would you investors prefer to see it the escrow ran by a Trusted Hero Member ie: TomatoCage, or by a professional escrow service ie: btccrow? Please let us know, this coin will be just as much the communities coin as it is our coin, so we want to make sure our investors have a voice.
