The players that scam are Innocent, it is the players that let themselves get scammed that are at fault. If everyone just played smart. scamming would cease to exist

Me? I'm dishonest, and a dishonest man you can always trust to be dishonest. Honestly. It's the honest ones you want to watch out for, because you can never predict when they're going to do something incredibly... stupid.

KK was innocent it's the devs leaving dupe exploits in the game that are at fault, if the devs just played smart duping wouldn't exist #freekk...... mmmm no

Legal, but here is my reaction:

Back in Feb 2018, a guy I was hosping (for not paying for a revive I gave him) was looking to purchase Morph. I sold him the Morph at market price. And hit him back into hosp.

He has since changed his name to M03G4N, but i still kept his id number, so was able to keep track of his name change.

I liked the community more prior to staff changing the rules to make scamming legal. Scamming is scummy. Scammers know it, non scammers know it. Depends what sort of person you are or care to be known as I suppose.

Try and convince yourself the scammed deserved it, if that helps you justify your scummy actions to yourself. I'd never steal an unearned 7 bill, it would ruin the game for me, where's the pride, the effort, the honour?

Never to late to turn a new leaf.

Scammers = Scum.

If you don't care, and nothing matters, what's the point in playing? That money's going to get dull real quick for you.
