is there a rule for āwarning about a known scammerā?
you are right ā¦ scamming is not forbiden but same goes for warning about it
look here ā¦ take care ā¦ this guy is a scammer ā¦
guess its allowed
this doesnt mean that it is not allowed to warn he is a scammer
its not anti-competitive ā¦ anti-competitive would be if i write in the same thrad i sell the same stuff for 10% less ā¦ that would be against the rules but not that someone says he is a scammer ā¦ that not anti-competitive ā¦

you proved you have the BPOs and are willing to sell
like i said ā¦ i saw the threads and i dont call it anti-competitive to warn that you have scammed befor

Well to be fair. Warning people that you are scammerā¦ is not anti competitive behavior. Your character has been marked as scammer and you even mentioned you are one.
I donāt see anything wrong with warning people, it is up to them then to be more caution when they decide to go ahead and deal with you.
Use an alt to sell the BPO then. Then you do not have worry about the stigma of your char being labeled a scammer. You made that decision then live with the consequences.
This. Because this is the natural counter to the scam.
Iāve addressed this in my last post. To me anything against the proposed offer is anti-competitive, which I accept might not what the rule meant to say, but currently the blanket statement is at least not specific enough, maybe just for me. I think it would be helpful if it was made clearer what it means exactly.
Wellā¦it does not go against the offerā¦it goes against the simple fact that it is a scam.
And anti scam behaviour is not equal to anti competive behaviour simply because scamming is NOT a āregularā buisness.
Itās not illegal but itās just tolerated by ccp.
But anti scam behaviour is tolerated also so thereās no problem at all as far as i can seeā¦and no need to complain as scammer to ābeeing hindered in the buisnessā because scamming is seen as ātolerated side buisnessā by ccp but itās more like the unwanted child of a one night stand than really āpart of the buisness familyā
Alright Mr. Whiteknight Ari
Step back from the keyboard so people can have conversations without you telling everyone that what they say is irrelevant when itās not

@Uriel_the_Flame maybe you are right and it should have a better explanation what the rule real say ā¦ for mit its clear that this is not anti-competitive but maybe its wron
in this case @Serenity_Fireslayer clould proof that he owns the BPOs so this is not a scam
but again ā¦ i dont see it anti-competitive ā¦ it says only ātake good care everything is okā
oh it is regular bussines ā¦

Link to the thread in question please?
Iām not sure wether I read the right thread. If it is the one about T2 BPOs, I donāt see the trolling. People there remark that youāre a known scammer and you keep replying to it. No one owns a thread. The opening post more or less sets the frame and within that and the ToS, everyone is free to state their opinion. Since scamming is a valid possibility in that subsection of the forum, discussing the possible scam-behaviour of any seller or buyer should be considered on topic.
So unless anything else happened that would constitute trolling, I think youāre wrong on this one.
If you truly feel youāre being trolled, the first step would always be to flag a post. Remember though, that neither the GM nor the ISD is the Forum police or your personal army. Flagging on-topic replies that donāt breach the ToS or otherwise constitute disruptive behaviour, could get you in trouble for abuse of the report system.
Now from what you write, it seems the GMās already ruled against intervening. Unless youāve brought up new arguments, I donāt think anything will change their position. In such a case petitioning a GMās decision might need to be reviewed by a different GM and that might take time. You should also be careful here though. Simply petitioning because you can and because you donāt like the outcome, could be seen as abuse of the system as well.
In the light of all that, it seems that your opening statement is very biased by your current experience of not getting the confirmation you want and may or may not ever get in this case.
Whatever the outcome, I think the generalized statement is pretty drastic and not fair. Customer Support is usually doing a great job. They reply quickly and Iāve pretty much always experienced them as reasonable. They replied to you and they think you are wrong in this case. Me too. Calling them out for that and expecting them to waste their summer days on replying to a request that will anyway be deniedā¦ meh.
The rules thread is not gone, itās still there.
Threads unpin themselves for you once youāve read them.
Also, donāt discuss moderation. Thread closed.
