Post by: HKinematix on November 04, 2011, 04:03:18 am
Come on now.
He got scammed and should rather be trying to help him get his stuff back instead of calling him names.
Everyday people trust +2 items and such to people to loom it. So you are saying that if you trusted someone with let's say a +2 armor to make it +3 but then turned around and scammed it from you you wouldn't be a bit mad?

Poophammer seeing as how you are NA Admin you should be able to at least notify someone who could help in this matter rather then saying "retard status confirmed." Although I am not quite sure what power you have when it comes to these type of matters.

Should take this into serious matters. If he thinks he got away with this once what makes you think he won't do it again? Who knows maybe one of us will be scammed next!

Err why not.. your word is your bond, this was not somebody posting incorrectly on marketplace, but a pre-arranged agreement. As such, failure to honour such an agreement is a stain on the community and honest merchants everywhere.
Also, as a stain on the community, perhaps the community would prefer not to have said player, but what do I know.

Our clan came through on picking up an item that was +3 listed for a regular item. We returned it within a few hours, but saved the individual from Wolves a lot of grief. Yes, I agree Archer was foolish with this decision and while he typically runs 95% of his Marketplace stuff by me before doing it, he didn't this time.

I hope a Mod can get ahold of me and we can collaborate on getting this back to it's rightful owner as well as seeing what can be done about the individual who stole it. Sorry to hear that this happened Ricky, be safe, not sorry in the future. There's still a chance we can make this fixed if not Opals steps forward and corrects it him/herself in good faith.

what I want to know is WHAT THE FUCK?!

This trade could have been a lot better = you lost the +1 bastard first and then not lost the cata or gold.

Personally I have no sympathy because well this was an obvious scam and the only thing i hate worse than scammers are the people who fall for it. You're FEEDING THEM!
Title: Re: i got scammed on market
Post by: Phoenix on November 04, 2011, 05:38:10 am
I agree with you guys that Ricky was kindof stupid to do that.... but still...

Admins should do something because he did get scammed and he should get his stuff back.

Post by: PieParadox on November 04, 2011, 06:45:54 am
If devs are too lazy to try and fix the marketplace, a thing that I remember in another game was threads that were contracts.

I, hereby, give ____ this ____, for the princely sum of ______ and shit.
-Signed Pie

Post would be uneditable. Would make a lot of posts, but would clear up things realll quick (could be another section under marketplace).

e: Signing the contract and not holding it up would result in the removal of marketplace of the scammer, or some other fitting punishment.

Wow, getting scammed should not only end in punishment for the scammer, but under the victims name on the forum it should have a huge label that says "DUMB".
Title: Re: i got scammed on market
Post by: Arcona on November 04, 2011, 11:19:37 am
Come on guys, how would you feel if you were in his shoes? Be nice..

See this is the problem!

I am rather new to CRPG and I would NEVER FIND MYSELF IN HIS SHOES!

I believe that one learns from his mistakes. The harsher the ... lesson the better the learning. So he lost a +2 item so its a mistake he will most likely never make again!

I really do not understand what the Admins need to do about this! Return the items? Why? Because he got TRICKED?

Well sorry the Marketplace here works like the free market. Fools get fooled, hagglers haggle and the prices go up and down depending on the amount of goods in the market. If the market got flooded with looms their price would go down... if people decided not to sell anything just so they can grow their epeen by having even Loomed Stones also the price will change...

Why should the admin (read Goverment) step in and mess with the free market?

The OP should have simply said... NO! To this obvious bad deal! Or perhaps he should have asked for a collateral... for example he should have put for trade his +2 horse the 400k and asked for the +3 sword... if the person said no (although there is a massive collateral given) he obsiously was not to be trusted!

If you are scammed come here, post it to alert the community, post it in buy/sell forums but dont whine about being given back what you foolishly lost! Tough it out and try harder. If you have a clan and friends ask some support from them in being given other items to make up for it...

Sorry if this sounds harsh but unless you pay for your mistakes you dont learn.

You know what?

I got some spare gold right now, and since this guy is probably never going to give you your stuff back, and you're a pretty new player, I'll help pitch in with 250 k.

Put up an offer and I'll accept when I see it.

while I saw this coming looking at ricky's post in the forum, he should get back his items as everyone else should, and it must also be considered that this wasn't a miswriting error by ricky that someone took advantage of looking at the market prices, but it was a proper scam 'engineered' by the scammer(even if the idea was pretty silly and with a low chance of success)

LOL perhaps like the freemarket in the country Anarchia... and only if people lost the abiltiy to kill other people who broke deals.
I am still thinking that people who got scammed should be allowed to tk their scammers without penalty but the scammer is not allowed to tk back.

If admins would make scamming against the rules and make an example of 1 month bans for the next people who try it that problem would have been
solved a long time ago.

A huge amount of people trust strangers every day when buy sell loom points. I've done it twice with strangers and had the chance to walk away with a +2 item and  450k does it make me "stupid" not to have ripped off that those "suckers"?

opals got an extra 800k for 1.3 mil total cuz archer77 trusted him, but even if archer did the trade cautiously opals still could've walked away with the +1 sword worth 450k and it would have been just as wrong. opals is a liar and a thief and needs his charatcer wiped and banned. The admins need to step in and drop the hammer cuz if they don't the whole trade system is gonna fall apart once it's seen that the cops don't care.

Last Athenian, who is Opal's in-game nick.  Kind of deserves to be known as someone not to trust in the future.  Also, wouldn't mind focus firing on him in-game.  Yeah it was a stupid scam, but it was still a scam and the people who do that shit to others, usually newer players, are the dickheads of the community that make it harder for this community to gain new players.

Oh thanks for calling me a moron instead of politely asking for the reasoning behind my position.  That is moderately rude!

When someone bumps a topic in the marketplace too many times, he get a warning, or a topic locked.  When someone TK's ONCE, he gets kicked, or sometimes even banned!  When someone puts a troll post in the forums, he become's "watched", and can be eventually muted.

But when someone preys on the innocent and naive, takes advantage of trust (no matter how foolishly placed), and renders someone's hours upon hours upon hours of game time...which is our life, which is very limited, poured into a silly game...but is still time we can never get back...when this effort is rendered to practical nothingness with one cheap trick, in a moment...nothing happens?  No justice?  No punishment?  No compensation?

I don't know how anyone can retain faith in such a community, unless they are equally a moron!  I am dis-heartened, but still retain hope that justice will be served, and all wrongs righted.

Until these kinds of multi-trades can be accommodated in the market web page, trades of good-faith should be enforced.

Ricky77, please follow up if you hear anything from devs/admins....whether they allow the trade to be reversed or say you're out of luck.

Or also on the small chance that the wrong-doer spontaneously realizes the worth of his immortal soul, repents, and decides to return your goods of his own volition.

I know devs dont have too much time...

I think anyone would have a chance to have their hard work back, and advise him to not trade again like that - at least 1 time for every people.
I would check the if it was true, give things back and ban the scammer for a least 1 month showing that scammers have no place in cRPG.
Also if possible replace loom points for experience points if you want to imbue an item just spent 8kk experience.. and the possilibity to trade experience points for money in the market.. that would solve the problem of loom points.

Even though the OP has commited a naive error, that doesn't give you the right to mock him when he's desperately requesting help.

Don't you admins have a log of the transactions? Maybe you could confirm this, and undo it, and ban the bastard in the process.

There are way too many bad people in the world. Why not try to be nice among each other in this little cRPG world?

Title: Re: i got scammed on market
Post by: SixThumbs on November 04, 2011, 06:06:45 pm
We are all at fault here as a community. chadz for making a faulty, unruly and unforgiving marketplace, and ninnies who want to get ahead and those ignorant and naive enough to act as a stepping stool.

Not that I know how hard it would be to program a more user friendly system but I don't think it's fair for either party; the dev, admin or whoever who has to access the logs and pour through it and undo a transaction every time someone doesn't think something through; and those who treat this as just a game, which will have no bearing in the long run, but who get F-ed because they don't feel like learning the loopholes and want to trust that the system is stable and fair.

A result of wonky mechanics and the fact that the mod is still a "beta" we must hinge on the honor system more then anything else.

mr.bean the explorer: i mean, im looking at ur steam, u only play 8 hours mount and blade a week
mr.bean the explorer: i play 100, who do u think needs it more
Patrick: Me, because since I don't play much, I don't have the time to acquire said heirlooms.
mr.bean the explorer: so i will give u one
mr.bean the explorer: just give me my stuff back
mr.bean the explorer: ?
Patrick: I just want heirloomed gloves or something, I don't have the time or attention span to play for 3 full gens to get that shit, so I steal from people to be able to get one.

i feel sorry for you ricky.. admins should troll him.. unban him, make him give the stuff back then ban him again.. ive had plenty of opportunities to steal from people and never have done it.. guess just really shows what kind of low life someone is

Well, Ricky77, sounds like the dick got banned...that's a great thing.  Perhaps he'll learn for next time he finds a game he likes.

Justice has been birthed!  Now in order for it to mature, let us know if the devs/admins grant you your gold and possessions back.

And be more careful next time! :)

OMG. What an absolute fucker! The  way he blatantly admitted to stealing from people.... Man that's harsh. I will be sure to do a bit of piss taking If I ever see him, or if he ever gets unbanned! But just watch it mate. I didn't know there are such assholes out there that would do that but i will be sure to think twice before I make my next deal on the marketplace. Good luck!

Post by: Ricky77 on November 05, 2011, 12:29:18 am
thanks for the tip, i will. I just want my stuff back that he stole. I contacted him on steam and he said he would give me it back if i got him unbanned, i just wish devs would just do one thin g for me, it wqould only take them 1 minute to take the stuff out of his inventory and put it in mine :D

Good day, cRPG community, on this wonderful day!

Patricia here, also known as Patrick, your local abrasive French Canadian.

First of all, let me ask why anyone would think to expect more of me (SeQuel), I am a well known abrasive asshat and always was.

Annnnnnd second, I am globally banned, not that I care, just thought I'd clear things up by posting here, people will probably go "Ohhh, of course, it's this guy, it all makes sense now."

Besides, even if I wanted to give that kid his stuff back, I'm banned, can't use the marketplace, etc.

Awaiting backlash of mad nerds babbling about right and wrong.

*scams some poor slob out of a couple months work*
*im a hardcore scammer noob i dont have ne morals heh*
*heh im gonna get permabanned from everything u got trolled*
*heh*
"getting popups that say 'you are banned' totally spice up the game for me"
"no i totally dont care about this game thats why im working to get mroe stuff on it"

shameful, you a bad troll son. pro tip for future endeavors, trolling generally shouldn't end in you getting (perma? hopefully)banned from a game you've been playing for a year

Dammit, I won't say that it's a good thing, especially not for a 19y old, but ... how do they call it? Chutzpah?

Also the OP deserves some respect imho.
I truly like the way this turned out, even though you made that mistake in the first place, dude!

Other than that:
It was quite entertaining.

Their just had to be an option to redo a trade within one hour.
Those things traded should be available only after that time.
once in a while a good Idea by a HRE.

You should always check the posts of people regarding market/trading/selling(whatever), before  sending 'em your +1,+2 or +3 Items, you have to find out if if they are reliable or not, if they have already sold loom points etc...
Ban the scammer and cut his hands, so he will not be able to use a keyboard anymore and swim straight.

And I wonder why the world is going this weird way.. Everything just turned around or something?

Seriously, are you praising a 'player' who totally ignores every rule, just because he wants to do it, and thinks he can 'gamble' it, as Patricia said. This type of rulebreaking 'gambler' behaviour is maybe one of the most dangerous things in human nature.

If you are bored of the game, then quit, no one forces you to play. But to start playing mr. scammer then don't give a shit about it, not even trying to be diplomatic or cleaning up the mess you made, then you're just out of control, or really careless about this thing.

Don't ruin others experience because you've fed up with the game. I for one play a lot less these days, because I lost my motivation. I still enjoy visiting the forums though, but I'd never start breaking rules all-around, written or unwritten.

Cool.

I just can't stand the overuse of the 'lulz, sarcasm' card.

It's as overused as the bluffing in games like Poker. You try to look smart using it a lot, but it isn't the case.
