    Scammers wont stop after just 1 scam they will do it again and again
    And Im not suggesting anything, its sts’ choice ehat they will do
    I'm not saying "you've" been scammed.......

    I'm wondering, what do "YOU" expect to be done????? You made the thread.........

    Only option is to "BAN" trading/gifting...............

    So, if you aren't suggesting a ban against trading/gifting, what's the point of your thread?

    You guys crying about you and/or your friends being scammed is becoming a bit old...........................

    You are talking like you accept scamming.
    You say that scammers belong to this game and they are fine
    You are saying scammers cant be held responsible for scamming, like it just happened not his fault.

    Im saying something needs to be done

    OK..... "WHAT" do you suggest needs to be done???????? Other than "BANNING" trading/gifting, there is "NOTHING" that can be done about the "MINDSET" of people like you and your friends........ You can't have cake if you always eat it......

    Politicians dont say This has to be done they say something needs to be done
    This is called making people think for themselves and maybe reach sts, they would know exactly what to do if they think about solutions

    Not saying it's "acceptable"......

    What i'm saying is that, with the current system/freedom in place, there is no possible cure for stupidity/being gullible...... Only option is to be "daddy" and put trading/gifting on "time out/ban"...................

    There is always something that can can be done. What would be more important, than a community in which ppl can trust eachother?
    Where Im from if you drop a wallet or a phone you can be sure to get it back.
    When you think about it, coming to chill in this game doesnt rly differ that much from real life

    That's the problem..... Not everyone is from "paradise".....

    Where i'm from, drop a phone or wallet, and you already know you will never see it again................ Where i'm from, sometimes just displaying a phone or wallet can be bad news..........

    There are no rules in life.............. There is nothing STS can do to make people "honest" and "trustworthy"........ STS can't control "people".... Otherwise they would have all of us and our pay methods hooked up to machines that basically automatically feeds off of us..........

    You are right there are too many players from too many places not everyone can be cool.
    Maybe the acts preventing scamming would be too harsh for the game, although I still think trust and antiscam should be the No1 priorities.

    I think I should be able to leave my laptop inside of starbucks while mingling with associates out front...... U think that's a good idea????? Should I "trust" that???????

    When it comes to "valuables", people only see a "gain"................ Someone is "always" in search of a "gain", hence cellphones having "lock Screens" and such...............

    Property protection can be easily achieved in smaller countries, why not in this small community of a game?

    Only thing need is educate people, if u don't want lose something just don't lend it!! this is so simple!!

    as of your protection thing i'm completely against it, if i want something bad and you offer to borrow yours to me i will refuse cuz i want to work hard to get it, whats the point of the game if you can try everything for free???

    The system in place is perfect as it is, its impossible to be scam if you are careful!

    Give or sell, never lend!!! golden rule in any mmorpg games!

    No..... People already have been proven to be too stupid or gullible to be educated..... STS just needs to follow radagan's suggestion and allow people to "lend" for a "duration" of time and have it be "automatically" returned at the end of the selected/agreed upon time duration...

    -1000

    People who cant understand this basic rule: Give or sell, never lend!!!, should just play other kind of games and come back when they are more older and mature
