The fact is, there are kids that play this game. Kids get excited when they think they have found something that is rare and that is hard to obtain. Plus throw in the fact that they have been looking for it and kids do not always stop to analyze and think things through.

And it has everything to do with this, since this game is overflowing with kids.

There is no such thing as whos fault it is or we could blame endless amoutn of differant people
The kid
For buying it and not realising the differance
The seller
For scamming the kid
Outspark
For not having something pop-up wen they start the game explaining this scam
Whoever got the kid into the game
Or it would never have happened
The seller's parents
For not teaching him not to scam

=/ The list could go on and on. There is no such thing as who's fault it is.

In the same way, the solutions could go on.
1. Stop the kid from buying it
2. Stop the scammer from selling it wrong
3. Have Outspark do something more about it
4. Blame the kid's referrer
5. Take the scammer's parents to task.

There's no such thing as a right solution either. In the end, if you don't want to be scammed, it's you who's going to have to be on your guard.

Maybe in your group of friends, it's ok and acceptable, but not for me.

We had a Lv 70 cleric shield blue that two money lords wanted... BAD.

In the end, we chose the cheaper deal because of the buyer's reputation.

Not everyone is greedy. Your consistent attitude of grouping, racism, and stereotyping is annoying at this point.

I pay to play the RL MMORPG, College. 4 years grinding in college gets you a piece of paper for the rest of your life and you can buy enough stuff to +9 your car//house.

It's not just saying it's so and so's fault. If you know and recognize the scam itself then you should help to prevent scammers from returning to the game.

Knowing it's there and turning a blind eye/ignoring it... you're equally "at fault".

I know for a fact everyone has greed. It's something you can't dismiss from anyone's personality.
You give yourself too much credit.

Pay attention and become less ignorant.

I didn't say I'm turning a blind eye to it. I said I'm being on my guard. If I see a guy scamming, in...say...Elderine, then I'll shout that so-and-so's shop in so and so location is scamming, take care. But I repeat, that if someone buys it on an impulse or without enough caution, then he's to blame more than the scammer.

There's the saying "If it's seems too good to be true, it probably is."
