How is that scamming?

No hidden costs or anything.
For all the non-believers, look no further than this thread for proof that while strat battles are won/lost in NA3/EU3, strat wars are won and lost on the forums.

He makes a ton of waaay too low offers (not even 1/10th of the normal price) so it looks like they are normal.

I couldnt call it scamming as such, but its clearly abusing the marketplace to fool people who don't know how to use it properly or know the rough value of loom points.

isnt it a free market? you cant ban people for setting up expensive trades. you can claim its scam and it prolly is but you cant prove it nor request a ban for it. its not his faul if people are stupid/naive enough to accept his trades.

if you wanna see what real scam is, play eve online. people are scammed for millions and billions every single day and its been like this since day 1, 2003. admins and mods completely ignore it.

i kinda like scammers. they create a sort of naturel selection  :P  :lol:

p.s.: the rules do actually say this kind of scamming is not allowed

Not sure if I'll get banned or warned if I crack a joke about Greece's financial situation and tie it into what you just said...
I'm not normal and I don't pretend so, my approach is pretty much a bomb crescendo.
Death is a fun way to pass the time though, several little bullets moving in staccato.
The terror of my reign will live on in infamy, singing when they die like a dead man's symphony.

I`m 24 years old, and I make 1000 euros per month, while the basic wage here is 402 euros.

Keep in mind that unemployment rate is 33% atm.

If I was in another country, like US or Sweden for example, I`d be rich.

You should feel sorry for Raziel instead - he spent at least 6 minutes of his life on making the offers no one is going to accept.
