Simple question. Is everyone allowed to put up scams on escrow, or is it forbidden and a bannable offense. |

Currently, escrow scams are allowed.
Escrow spams, however, aren't.
Thank you for the clear answer. I will not spam anymore,maybe 5 scams per week, that will satisfy my criminal desires enough,no matter that nobody buys em.
So just for kicks....should we all go report the peeps with their 50 escrow spams of the same blueprint copy?  |

The simple answer is you have been told not too Tech2 Shoppe, which makes any answer given in this thread totally pointless.
Hmmmm....

However a more interesting question is, "what should the punishment be for escrow scams?"
It would be nice there was a proper risk/reward calculation for escrow scams.
Currently for the scammer it is all reward.
Ok lets sum this 'all reward' up, I spend about 10 minutes to setup one (!) good escrow scam. Nobody ever bought them. My only reward is a little entertainment,some criminal excitement and the bad reputation for my character.Oh yeah, and some very nice eve mails from potential customers. |

The fact is you are a bad criminal with a poorly executed plan (your ore thefts in a probe, demonstrate the calibre).
Ok, its got to start somewhere, I can't afford or fly an indy on the first day. I had to 'earn' the cash first, ok. You'd be surprised how many times you can fill the probes can before the miners come back from the toilet.Also I don't need anyone to judge my gameplay, I only needed to know if its allowed, or not. I know all I need now, and can get on with my gamelife. |

it is a fine line but an example will demonstrate it is a line.
If Tech2 Shoppe is role playing a really pretty poor criminal then the gameplay is spot on.
Yep thats me!  |
