Duck and run. Until they tazer me. OMG, I love when they tazer them. Those people drop and flop like fish outta water.

But, back on topic: I think the biggest scam has been people selling the fighter Vitality scroll for a large amount of silver and advertise it as the scroll production Vitalty T2.

Yeah, I've heard a number of complaints on that one. I haven't seen it myself yet but if I happen upon it I'll try to screenshot it... What do you do with the screen shot though? Do they want people to help? Like, is there a section in the main site for reporting them or is this just something they're doing themselves?

[.o0O0O0o.]

I would pm the GM on the main forum with the SSs attached. But yes i've seen that scam quite a bit.

[Patches]

They have said with other things like the bots and the people that have hacked the system to change their hair color and stuff to PM Steam on the Outspark forum with the screenshot and they will take it from there. I saw one just the other day too. I forgot to get a screenshot.

@rsx-s: "hacked the system"? Where'd you hear that?
It really bugs me when people call EVERYONE who mods/add fixes to a game a "hacker".

Replacing the hair color files with Shine Online ones =/= "hacking the server".


On topic:
Finally.
I'm glad I took 10+ pictures of the people selling the skills. I hope that the 300s was worth losing your account, not to mention the 300s.

hessah saw the vitality tier 2 scam but figured it out thank goodness. i'm so glad they're not like gala with flyff where they don't take any action with scams and just say it was your fault for not paying attention.

[Hessah]

yeah i would've bought it if i didnt hear about it from Yosei's other thread like a day before that...

i've always wondered why it says lvl requirement is 30.... but i never thought that it was a scam...

[Hyper]

Yeah, I know its not allowed, and the only thing I ever changed was to add Ghostly's quest fix, but I deleted that. (It should be used by all, since the devs are too damn lazy to fix the most wanted quest bugs.) So I would be a hacker then? Hacker is way too strong of a word, and IMO, it gives way too much credit to people who copy and paste a file into the /Fiesta folder. (I don't aspire to be a hacker, or whatever is might be read out as... >.<)

It also isn't using any 3rd party software, which is what hacking is.

i'm so glad they're not like gala with flyff where they don't take any action with scams and just say it was your fault for not paying attention.

lmao

That's exactly what I said on the Outspark forum.

Its your (talking about people who buy, then complain) fault for being a big enough idiot to buy a Vitality 2 Production Skill that is:

A. Incorrectly named.

2. Has a level requirement.

and

IIV. Doesn't have a "Required Scroll Production: xxxx".
