Eve encourages scamming. It always has. Even the addition of the warning pop up you ignored was a major point of discussion, since it was a one-sided nerf to creative market gameplay.

Wait…you’ve played for **8 years** and somehow didn’t know that’s possible if _YOU_ set up the circumstances against yourself?

Sorry, guy, but it’s your fault. Nothing else nor anybody else…_your_ fault.

As to your pained question of WHYYYYY??!..after playing 8 years, you should also be very aware that there is almost 20 years of people writing / talking / arguing / discussing more on every possible facet of EvE than one would believe possible. Much - much too much, really - has been said on this very subject since EvE launched. You can easily look it up.

That’s the way EvE was for many years. That’s the way EvE should be now.

Does not look you played 8 years as at the beginning was no safety, no pop ups about overpriced and many other updates were developed later. and It was always enough player like yourself which one type respond it is “It is you fault” Yes that is true, and if we follow this way we have EVE with no improvement from 2000. So I am not getting what is you suggest leave as Is … OK. You want me blame for my mistake. Ok I get it. You better player. Something else?

Um… @CAMODELK1N , old friend…I suspect there may be some sort of miscommunication between us… I literally just said the way EvE used to be was there was no safety and that’s the way it should be now…

I’m sure I must have presented unclearly, I will do it differently: _EvE did not have any safety trigger mechanic for many years and it should not have one now_.

Well…modesty would prevent me from saying such a thing.

Not from me, no. However, the CCP of the dim past does have an applicable message for you:

Yes please. That has been rubbish since the day it was introduced.

EVE used to be much more interesting before all of the guardian grandma features were introduced.

So huge +1 to getting rid of safety settings.

No one stops it, but that isn’t relevant to your suggestion, which I totally agree with.

Get rid of it all together.

That’s where you are wrong. In eve, players set prices. So, there is no actual “correct” price for an item. You should have learnt that after 8 years.

Then use the word average, not regular.

And still, this means nothing. You have a warning that it’s higher than the usual price, not a reason to not purchase it. Sometimes I don’t mind paying 10 times the price. And sometimes people who place an item 10 times the price make less profit than people who use the usual price.
