fact is scamming will screw up the game as same as "isk for real money" is doing.
coz:
a few people get rich by cheating the mass. an this will not be tolerated by the mass. in RL the mass will revolte as you can see in 3rd world countries...
but different to RL:
here the mass can quit, and they will do.
this scammed mass are 6 to 18 month old chars mostly casual playing...as i do...for me it doesent metter which game i play...as long as it is fun...
the promble is not scamming itself, it is beeing not able to punish scammer for there doings ingame... how to punish an alt which never undocks???
I WANT TO BE ABLE TO BLOCK CONTRACTS/CHAT FROM MAIN AND ALL ALT CHARS AT THE SAME TIME!!!
right its just a game...
but i play a game to get joy out of it not fustration! this i can get in RL alot more...
(btw i m running 4 paid accounts for casual gaming)

this thread is not about removing scamming from game or a "hello kitty" version ITS ABOUT BEEING ABLE TO PUNISH SCAMMER INGAME!!!
a priate is poding you - you get a kill right - fair
a corp is bugging you - you wardec them - fair
you'r making easy isk as pirate - you get tagged by concord - fair
you are a scammer - ??? nothing!!! - fair?
all ingame tool are not working coz they are just alts
CONTRACT SECTION AROUND JITA TURNED TO BE USELESS!!!
a questions:
the market engine is one of the things ccp is proud of.
why cant we trade faction item within the market then?

If I try to sell you Ice in alaska and you buy it thats your fault and there is no law thats gonna get your money back for you. Its your responsability to read the fine print.
no problem with that!!! but if you told me "ice" and i ll get "fire" its a crime!
there are alot of "high price" trades within the market system...at certain stations ore price is funny high coz of trade missions for mission runners...shuttles are f***ing expensive in some regions BUT it all within the market system.
scamming is the new macro mining!!! and even easyer then this...one billion in a day....without any risk...sadly

The problem with scamming isn't the scammers.
The problem with scamming are the people who get scammed.
Markets exist because there is an opportunity for profit. That's why people scam in online games, why the Jita contract market is flooded with "AMARR NAVY HARDENAR!!!!" contracts that'll get you an EANM, and why you can't even look at local Jita chat without your eyes bleeding. It's because of the people who are too clueless, careless, or just plain lazy to do their homework, activate "common" sense, and make sure that the deal is what they're expecting.
Don't hate and ridicule the scammers. Hate and ridicule those who get scammed. Use Local chat to call out individuals who just accepted that contract for "10000 Wrath Missiles" and ended up with a single missiles. Don't tell your corpmate who just bought a shuttle for 100,000,000 ISK that "it happens to everyone." Tell him he's stupid. If we cut down on the number of people who are dumb enough to fall for scams, we'll cut down on the number of scammers.
The law of the market is "let the buyer beware." Scammers just exist to keep that true.
as said before -> blaming the victim is not the right way...
maybe you should blame yourself if someone steel you car :D
