Think before u report!!!

[Onaraasider]

You know how when u see someone doing something like saying selling plat or trading item for plat. When you saw that, did u stop to think if they knew what they were doing was wrong? Most of you would probably say no but it is important that u start thinking if they know what they are doing is wrong or the consequences.
Today when I was helping ninjaduck lvl up,a person joined our game,he was lvl 11 and seemed like a normal new player, but then all of a sudden he said " u give me money,I gve u plat." Qxn(ninjaduck) immediately started shouting "report! Reported!(nothing wrong with this, the average person would would yell report,duh!)"I told ninja duck not to report him,knowing he didn't report yet,becuz most people bluff when they first say reported. And then I talked with the player. I told him what he was doing was wrong and could get him banned forever from the game, when I told him that,he got upset, and thought I could ban him forever and begged me not to ban him, then Ninjaduck came in with advice and said just play the game, don't sell plat. After that I helped him out and he seemed pretty cool.

Although I agree with you, why would someone say they will give you plat for gold when they don't even know if it's possible or not? Got to admit it sounds very fishy.

Don't get me wrong, I think it's good to talk with a person before mindlessly reporting them. On the other hand, only devs can trace back if someone actually tried to scam or not, or if this person repeats trying to scam even after acting all innocent. So one could argue that it's safer to report before they actually ruin the game for an innocent/unknowingly player.

Personally, I'd play along a bit and see if it ends up with the player asking for your account and password, so he/she could 'give' you the plat (read: empty your account), because in most cases this is exactly how these things turn out when saying you're interested (in my own experience anyway).

Let me do a walkthrough of what happened:

1. Person A tries a scam.
2. Person B calls Person A out on the scam.
3. Person A goes into panic mode when faced with an Ambassador thinking they're a developer.
4. Person A all of a sudden didn't know what he was doing was wrong.


You see thus stuff all the time in real life. People will try to mess up your day until caught, and then all of a sudden "they didn't know any better."
It's like with kids and violent video games. Kid finds his dads gun and shoots his friend in the face, says he doesn't know any better and blames videogames.

That is the analogy of all analogies.

I'm to lazy to read the comments so i apologize if I repeat anything:

Forgive me ona, but I disagree with everything you said. It's not my fault the person being reported failed to read THE ToS. Therefore, if they don't want to read ToS, I don't mind reporting.
Think of it as a lesson learned on their part.

Ive played doom since it came out for pc ( I was about 6 at the time ) and still knew to not even think about touching my dad's gun case. About the player I gotta say I get where you're coming from Ona, I just gotta say I probably would have called him a scammer, then told him to stop or I'd report. So yeah, I guess I should take the time to see if they really are just a noob and don't know any better.
