He was talking about this incident in EC earlier, and I think a couple of people spoke up saying that Zebaki is a known scammer on the server. Can anyone clarify?

Yea man I sorta know him always seemed like a nice guy, have you tried working this out with him directly or did you just log on here immediately after he disappeared to cry wolf?

I believe they don't give it back because in effect the money is still out their floating in the system. Creating more and handing it over to the victim would then effectively inject synthetic currency into the market.

But then you think that the amount of these thievery incidents happening can't be that high, and it's also a game.

Gotta love it - we can't stop printing money in real life, but in a video game they try to adhere to sound economics.

That makes no sense. The GMs would just have to delete the stolen plat/item(s) at a minimum.

Id rather ask strangers in EC and take the 1% risk of getting scammed than do that.. Maybe if my alts were on same account. Trades over 5k prob stick with guildees.

I ground trade fungi from main to alt and back on regular basis. Always a big rush lol its like selling all you got irl and putting it on red lol littbe bit of excitment wont hurt :))

Surprised no one's mentioned this yet, but it's really ridiculous to threaten leaving the game over losing 6k. 6k is nothing. If you have a character at max level (generally speaking; depends on the class) you can easily make 1k an hour, and more realistically you can make 2k+ an hour if you know what you're doing. Between farming cash camps, PLing, and tradeskilling, there are lots of way to make money in the game.

Assumptions and ifs. What if this guy is starting here and just lost everything he had? Im guessing he would not be so ruined over 6k if he had main 60lvl farmer.

6k Is a lot to 90% of players who aren't neckbeards.

Also, If he had a lvl 60 to farm with he probably would have known a few more trustworthy people to do a transfer for him.
