too bad for grun but its his merchant with a scammer having access to it

explain to me why it's a scam ?

considering that
a) you are responsible for your actions, if you dont shift+i its your fault you clicked buy
b) point i mentioned in my earlier post above

RNing a person for griefing is like RNing a person for abusing you on irc which iirc has happened once or twice, and ofcourse lower than emote spam RN's

No, scamming people is the lowest form of abuse in this game and people doing it deserve everything they get.

and not quite
if you have 10 barrels, you check the first 6 they are all full.
But the guy has put the remaining 4 barrels with 1 pot inside
How can you say that is not purposfully trying to con someone?
by definition making it greifing

well chronic, first of all there are no full barrels on the house as far as i know. he sells barrels with 1 pot left and thats it ;D and altho i do not consider selling 1 pot for this high overprice nice, i do not consider it to be a scam since they are on a cm for sale and you are not being tricked into buying them. the other day i bought a shield for 5p and noticed it had 7dur left which kinda sucks but i just didnt check so it was my own fault. the one that had it wanted to sell it and considered 5p to be a decent price for it so he puts it on his cm for that price, then its up to the buyer to buy it if he thinks the price is ok.

Hmm, so selling off barrels with 1 charge at the cost of one with 100 charges isn't an attempted scam ?

Sorry, come back to the real world. He's trying to sell stuff that looks valuable unless you look closely for a price far above what it's actually worth. That's attempted scamming.

Not being the only person out there attempting to scam others isn't a defence.

In fairness lads ..and to you Beeks .. its tough titty but the milk is good :p

He isnt doing anything wrong against the coc ..he has chosen to sell 1 power pot for 700gold and if ye buy it its yer own bad really . I dont think you could report that to right now for griefing . Its obvious that his intention was to do it but technically he priced what he sold and you bought it . There is a bracer of zohakarot or whatever on the hib market for a few plat and my mate rushed out and bought it only to find that its a grey con junk . Now the guy that put it there knew that but it still rests with my m8 for not checking .

Live and Learn I spose ..unlucky about getting stung . Bought a few things at 70% condition before and paid full price and didnt cop it so Im in the same boat but again its my fault and Ill watch out the next time :D

Next !

1 pot is the price of aprox~3-4g. Having one pot in a barrel is just to try hiding this. Also puting the price around 800g-1p is just done to make the buyer think he's going to get a barrel with 100 pots.
No matter what you say it's just fucking lame and damn annoying for anybody that going to buy it. It's pure greed and destroys for everybody thats going to buy anything at the market(you need to double check everything etc). Same goes for puting up 10 pots at 5g and having one of them at 5p. Your not doing this because you think the value of one of the pots is 5p it's simply done only to screw the buyers off.
But there will always be idiots, which does stuff like this to destory the market system for everybody.

I don't really care, I'd not report anyone for this (have never reported anyone for anything).

No, he's chosen to sell 1 power pot disguised as 1 power barrel for 700 gold.

I try to remember to check, and have not been stung. That doesn't mean I like having people out there trying to pull this sort of thing.

Why should trying to catch out other players in this way be acceptable ?

Deliberately doing stuff like this is instant dismissal from our guild.

he is making an examble about if u go to the house, and see oh this one is full and then u buy a few more maybe, or another1 than the one u looked at and u would get "scammed" thinking they are all full, he don't say buy all of them :p


but imo, it's not illigal or anything, just a lame way of trying to scam ppl who trust the sellers, but it seems like more ppl are trying to do it, and I guess it won't stop witch is sad, so more and more ppl will try to earn easy money this way....

Lame imo, but ofc u are to blame aswell if u don't see what u buy before u do it, just sad it's going that way...

You are a fuckin tit, and your leet guild can all go to hell.

Not a scam ? You and all people with your attitude ruin mmorpgs.

The ONLY reason people are not so quick to condem this player is becaue they are from an oh so elitist guild - - we all know this is a SCAM, griefing call it what you want.

Synergy responded in the correct way, all credit to them - the shitbags that are groove/bdc/og - your a bunch of arseholes and your attitude stinks.

I'm not gonna suggest you should kick him from guild or that people who get caught don't have themselves to blame in part but...

Not a scam? LOL. It's the very definition of a scam.

Darzil


btw this is the keyword folks to the scam!

As if he werent trying to scam he would have made a single bottle, making a barrel for 1 when he could sell it single (as we all know how a bottle with 1 charge looks like) he desguised it with a barrel making people to belive it got 100 charges.

And don't come here and tell us people that you wouldnt make a FH thread about it yourself if the case havend been up b4.. After the first scam that happend you just started to check the barrels if it contains 1 or 100 charges.

This is obvious a scam no matter what you say, ofcourse its up to every single one to check, but please be so nice to atleast deliver the quality that people expect!

lol, its not a scam, scam's in rl tend to require 2 people, on the job, one 2 sell and one to buy it, next weeks lost repristents this well

also pyramid scemes give FALSE infomation in order to take your cash

its listed as a barrel with 1 charge left, how can this be a scam?

Wikipedia said:
A confidence trick, confidence game, also known as a con, scam, grift or flim flam, is an attempt to intentionally mislead a person or persons (known as the "mark") usually with the goal of financial or other gain

there is no way he can mislead you, as necromania said

necromania said:

if he went to CS, for egsample, and said 'WTS full power barrel for 800g' this would constitute a scam

using the CM you cannot be scammed, and its your own fault if you buy it, and theres nothing you can do except asking the guy for a re-fund, weather or not he will refund you is a differant matter

dont put everyone under 1 comb bud.. he said he didnt know, and its his desicion if he wanna kick the scammer or not, not everyone outside.

And btw, the GM havent done anything, its one of his members. So i think you should just start to NOT flame anyone with accusations..

I suggest you also look up the word "semantics"

Call it by what ever word you want - deception is most definitely being used to obtain money.

Its up to GM to do something about it, which wont happen, so yes my argument is aimed at the GM.

not that is pretty irrelevant isnt it?
i for example have 6 rvr ready characters, 4 of which need power pots
i also have 2 additional pve characters who need power pots
thats 6 barrels if i get one each, but on my focus pullers i run around with 3 barrels per character as i intend for them to be camped in one place for a long time.
6+6=12 barrels

dont see how this reflects on the rest of the rvr community, most people play for the fun of the game not to make other people feel bad. I say most people, but as with everything there are a few bad eggs and he is obviously one of them.

most people (at least most people i have dealt with/had dealings with) say sorry and return the money :rolleyes: ableit the few occasions it happens

a guild's members are a reflection of the guild, the guild has done nothing to stop him repeating it... that is what reflects on the guild as a whole, so its pretty obvious what image the guild is happy with
