Many times on Diablo II with the SoJ scam.



Basically, it leads them to ultimately letting you pop them, grab their gear, and leave. My best friedn was always a ''previously done client'' and backed up my claims, and took 50% of the stash we found.

hehe, i did some scamming in rs back in the day('02 it must have been). back when there were no second trade screens, so if you took somehting off reall quick and pressed accept(after the other person had accepted) the trade would still go through. tons of other scams too, people are stupid.

Who cares about their fun! you buy the game to hae fun yourself, and if someone falls for a scam (which are more than often not very subtle and blatantly scams) then they deserve to have their e-possesions stripped away.

i dont scam games like eq...where u have to pay like 20+ a month for playing fee...thats a scam in itself. and the rag scam was durring beta. D2 i find it perfectly acceptable to scam. hey, if u lose ur account or something u were stupid enough to do it in the first place. itll only take a good 2-3 weeks to get it back.

Maybe this is why your mean to a lot of people here. :rolleyes




Who cares. I usually get back at the people that got me, using a different scam, but getting the same effects. I didn't scam random people, I can agree that is a bit too far, considering they may be true players and enjoy the game and probably worked hard for their just rewards of items, characters, and the time they spent to get them.

Azeroth, where else?
My friend, he scammed all the time in Diablo 2 and made alot of people unhappy. Then, when he got scammed, he quit playing the game. Now he knows how it feels, the bastard...

I scammed my brother many times and stole his account on purpose.

How?

I knew his passwords from the first place, hell I even know his PIN number.

Who cares? I've gotten scammed and scammed people and helped my friends scam people. You guys are saying that scammers have problems because we ruin others games? How about this: if you get upset about losing your "godly itemz" on d2 you have problems.
