That doesnt matter wolf, he has no intention of playing the game he is just here to annoy people thru a means that admin implimented, trading, he deserves an IP ban at the least.
I agree with you - I was just pointing out the inaccuracy in the previous post that stated scamming is against the rules:Kit-Fox wrote:isn't all of this persons behaviour (the scammer/cracker that is) totally against the rules.

Safest password is one that is long, uses numbers and letters, and doesn't relate to your name. If it is incredibly long, and they dont know it is, it is exceptionally difficult to brute force, in which case they actually have to try and crack into the actual game.
I hope your password was like that (Although from one post your account got cracked into anyway?)

Sweet, now that we're banning people for being annoying I've got a list of about 10 people I'd like to submit for deletion. Where do I submit these names? LOL, seriously now. I fail to see anywhere in the game rules saying that scamming is illegal. Sure, if he's running multis - zap his butt. But asking for him to be deleted for scamming people when it's not against the rules is a little silly

Note that the function is to GIVE - not lend. If you GIVE resources to someone, the game administration has NO ability to return them to you. Place your trust wisely, or risk learning one of the lessons the cosmos can teach the hard way.
Admin says it best.
