    If you overprice something it is on the buyer.

    If you advertise an item that it is not then it is on the seller.

    According to previous answers, nothing will get done unless someone reports it.

    Biggest scam lately --> Token of Best Luck selling as Perfect Token of Best Luck

    (token of best has one symbol....perfect token has two)

    I am in the middle because if people are not smart enough to re-check what they are buying........well.....

    there aren't any choices to pick from on your poll -_-

    I would have picked yes, but it's also people's fault for not checking items before they buy them. Reguardless I don' tlike seeing people trying to get a big pay off for something that isn't worth the price.

    It is my understanding that if you can show that they are indeed scamming that there are already disciplinary actions in place for those people.
    Too often we loose sight of life's simple pleasures. Remember, when someone annoys you, it takes 42 muscles in your face to frown, BUT, it only takes 4 muscles to extend your arm and slap that mother#$@%#^! upside the head.

    Can we please stick to the thread that is already active on this subject? It'll be doing me a big favor.

    Here is the official word, which is not likely to change:

    -If you see someone with an intentionally misleading shop title please take screenshots and send a ticket to us.
    -We will look into these cases and take action as needed, if you see a repeat offender please send a new ticket.
    -Repeat offenders will receive a more harsh punishment

    In the meantime please do the following:
    - Always, and I mean ALWAYS, check the tooltips on the item you want to buy to ensure that it is the item you want. This will reduce the possibility of you buying the incorrect item.

    Things to keep in mind:
    -First offenses may not result in a ban, but this is all dependent on the GM who responds and the severity of the issue.
    -Along the same lines as the first, we rely on player reports to catch repeat offenders, so one report may not be enough!
