Community Blacklist

Alright, then dont include it in the blacklist, I don't mind.

I cannot access that picture as I took a screenshot with print screen and not with scroll lock, so that's all i got.

If it was relevant, it would've been in the picture.

I'm not going to include guild/alliance chat without consent of the users, and i'm not going to ask for it.

I hope that everyone that is watching will think carefully about inviting this guy to their boss runs.

Thank you shira

 

i was curious about what's been happening in commmunity black list. but i saw all these essays.. nah.. imma just go back to ban appeal and look for entertainment there instead

 

Yeah it seemed pretty toxic to the other char you were talking to, annoying to me. I do notice that your other chars don't act like that as such, so I do see what you mean by split personality. However, I only posted as such cause, as I've said, the first two people I've talked about you had blacklisted you from apqs. If we notice the toxic/annoyingness of GodForgiveMe tones down in apqs sure yeah then we'll note that too. Thank you for the apology, kinda surprised actually.

 

FakeMage scammed me with 300 apr. I published a smega selling APR on May 23 and he wrote to me saying he would buy them all. When I got to the site he said I would drop him first and then he would pay me, but he didn't pay me. He went to ch1 fm to sell the APR.

 

My heart goes out to you, but how do people still drop hundreds of apr only to get scammed? Just trade one invent at a time. Anyone willing to legitimately buy your apr wouldn't mind trading you for them.

 

Err not to be a downer but I wouldn't do 9 by 9 trades for 300 apr. If the seller absolutely insisted sure it might be worth it to secure that volume of apr but 300 is a lot to get through.

Sorry that happened though, I've probably traded a few thousand apr so far and never had this happen to me. Also tip for next time, it's better to take a video of the entire transaction with the entire client in view, so that you have the entire sequence of events recorded along with time marks. Best of luck next time and safe mapling~

 

As someone who bought thousands of apr over the years, i ALWAYS by them 9 by 9.
If i had the seller (or buyer, i sold a few times too) asked to do droptrades, id just use someone else. At this point they lost my trust and i dont deal with people i dont trust. Theres always more people to sell to or buy from.

 

Yeah different strokes, different people. Drop trade is something people commonly use for APR though. Again sorry it happened

 

It may be a common practice but drop trading anything is extremely reckless. Scammers pray on people who are rushed or in a hurry and apr trades are always gonna have its victims because of that. It kind of makes no sense to me how we as a community came up with many different ways of protecting ourselves from problems we've all had in the past when selling/buying any service or items with countless screenshots and questions about people's play history and all that but drop trading is still a thing at the same time lol

 

I've only had good experiences with it and I still wouldn't recommend anyone else do it.

 

I've done drop trade for aprs twice. Both times the seller said to pay them after they finished dropping. The risk was on them and I STILL stressed about getting scammed lol

 

@nezukochan @imp
This dog is still out there roving

 

this same piece of shit scammed a friend of mine for like 3b worth of APR, but i'll leave it to them to make a report with evidence

guy needs to just be banned

 

Having literally bought over 1000 APRs

I've drop traded before, and have had good experiences, but usually you can find some sort of compromise to account for risk.

For example 100 APR/pay/100 APR/Pay/100 APR/Pay (Or pay/APR)

You look for names you recognize. You try to just buy 9, then go actually if you've got enough I'm willing to buy X amount, how does that sound?

I have traded with people who record the whole thing, I screenshot usually and that's enough. Usually fame can give you a hint, the 3 fame char is not usually worth it.

There is always just a little bit of a risk. You're trading your time for risk. If drop trade saves you 20 minutes. and there's a chance to lose 2 billion mesos 1% of the time. Then that 20 minutes is worth 20 million mesos. Which is plausible from farming so time is money in that case.

Not victim blaming by any means it sucks, and there needs to be consequences.

 

Yeah. The person who wants the drop trade should be the one taking the risk.
So if you're buying apr and want the convience, then pay up front.

If someone asks you to trade apr first, then just tell them batches of 9 only unless they pay first. No risk this way.

Though if the player is reputable, it doesn't matter too much.
I think some of us get used to the community being small and everyone knowing each other, to where we take risks like this without thinking we'll get scammed. But always be careful! Especially with unknown usernames.

 

I always ask the seller to search forum about me, show up on 2 or 3 of lvl 200 chars and pay ws/cs after every 45/46/47 APRs.

The scammer should be banned, and sellers should do background check before dropping large amount of goods.

 

Not to be the killjoy here but pet me summarize this here:
Fakemage was reported on blacklist
Everyone agrees that fakemage should be banned but its up to the victims to make proper reports
People are disagreeing over whether drop trading is or isnt worth it.
Can we move this to another discussion, since nothing productive will come at this point?
