Charm Glitch-scam?

I haven't seen a single charm that had low HP ina cat shop. I really hope that was just a bug that happened and not something lil **** scammers can do -_-

SS go farther than accusations against never fixing.

This is possible but it is incredibly stupid to scam people with it considering how easy it is to track down who did it. Write a ticket saying when you bought it and get them banned ASAP.

I don't know if this is exactly a scam in the traditional sense. Yes, you thought you were buying one thing and you did not get what you expected. I in no way approve of something this low, but I don't know if it would really be bannable. As the customer, it's kind of our job to double check what we're buying to make sure we get what we're paying for. It's sucky, but it's not like they linked a full HP charm in WC then traded you an empty one or something like that. And there's no rule saying people can't charge idiotic amounts for useless merchandise.

You should always be hyper-vigilant when buying, no matter where it is you're buying. Check that it's the right item, check that it's the right price, check that it's the right colour. Be wary of anyone trying to rush you in a transaction and of people who list multiple stacks of the same items in catshops.

missing the point. the person is abusing a glitch that allows them to remove a bound item and trade it. seelling an item made available through a glitch is easily against the TOS.

actually this isnt even a glitch you have to download a certain program and it will allow you to remove a charm. (I personally have never done it)

It's absolutely bannable, its a clear misrepresentation of an item because anyone linking a charm would be claiming to sell a full one. Since those are the only ones you CAN sell, without glitching the game. Which is also bannable. This isn't really a case of buyer beware, because there isn't a way in the current game mechanics to remove a charm. Any charms sold to you then, should be full. By the way, if you screenshot a catshop selling something while claiming it's something else (eg the best luck scam) that person can be banned as well. It's not the same thing as charging a high price for something. That's not a scam, thats a dumb move, but you can charge what you want for your things.

Umm. I wasn't even aware they're supposed to be bound. I've always been able to unequip a charm by equipping another charm of the same type. Example: I have a platinum HP charm with a low amount left. I'm about to go into Nirvana and don't want it to run out at an inopportune moment, so I take my new charm and equip it. Tahdah. New charm. The old one can be set aside for another time when I can let it tick until it's gone.

Giving you the benefit of the doubt, you've been incredibly lucky and something is wrong with your game files. The old one is destroyed, not set aside for later, when you equip a new one.

This is exploiting a glitch and is a perma-ban offense.

Normally if you equip a charm over an existing one, the existing one is destroyed when you equip a new one.

I'm a veno, so I don't use charms all that often. I was simply posing an example. But I know a while back I did unequip a charm by equipping another one and then had to burn through the low one at a better time.(Mind you, this was back at whatever level it was that I got the Tideborn quest to kill that annoying fish guy.)

So, perhaps it was just a glitch within my own game. Like I said, not much of a charm user. I just knew that I had done it back then and assumed that that's how it was meant to be. b:shocked

What does being a veno have to do with charm usage? My main is a veno, and I am always charmed. b:shutup

We have a pet to take damage for us and both health and mana insta-fill skills. I've never really needed a charm. Maybe the way that you play they're beneficial to you, but the majority of venos I know personally don't bother with charms.

you are high.
it overwrites your first charm with the new charm you are equipping.
you are either trolling or trolling.
