Trusting others for an item transfer

[Polixa]

Suppose another player agrees to help you transfer an item, something really big-ticket (50kpp+), and they don't follow through?

Would customer support drop everything to help you out or would you be s.o.l. ?

I always drop transfer but thinking maybe I'm being too paranoid. I know standard advice is to choose a L60 with a big-name guild but still...

Pretty sure one of the things they take most seriously is players defrauding eachother. Just get screenshots of “/tell friend will you transfer some items for me /tellsyou sure np” if you’re worried.

Remember what zone you gave them the gear in. I recently learned a lot of stuff is logged on the zones, dunno about trades but just in case.

qft

As Jawnie my blue casino guy from better pre red days I transferred a rod of annihilation to some guy, but traditionally CSR would tell you to get fukt. Despite complains staff here would probably help you out.

Truth be told I'm an honest john and drop transfer in places with no wandering NPC's and its really easy to find zero pop zones for hours on end in red so its no prob.

1. No, not at all. Your actions.

2. SOL

3. People have been ground transferring for 20 years.
It will get exciting when you switch characters and get disconnected, and have to restart the game..
oh yeah, remember that feeling? it's called being alive. [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Making posts like these really aren’t a good look. Posters can decide who to ignore for them selves. Sure, many of us were kids in 1999, but play ground queen bees meddling to create in and out groups is one era appropriate thing we can do without.

Here op, I did some lawyering and found you this:

“
11. You may not defraud other players.

Fraud is defined as falsely representing one's intentions to make a gain at another's expense. Examples of this activity include, but are not limited to, using deception to deprive another player of items, slandering another player or impersonating them with the intention of causing harm to that player's reputation, or falsely representing one's identity in order to gain access to another player's account or account information.

Fraud in all transactions between players may result in disciplinary action when confirmed by a P99CSR.

This is not permission to not watch out for yourself during interactions with players. Players may still scam or defraud you on Project 1999. It is your responsibility to protect yourself. The player who scammed you may be subject to disciplinary action, but there is no guarantee you will get your items or PP back. It is in your best interest to be wary of other players.

You are responsible for the people you let onto your account. Disciplinary action may be enacted upon your account even if you yourself were not responsible for any rule breaking. Do not share account info if you are not ready to deal with the consequences of someone else's actions.
