I elaborated since you did not care to refute them. Alas.

The fact that scamming is possible is enough reason to create a non scammable way of trading.
1) There is no such thing
2) No matter what system you utilize, as long as people have any amount of control, there will be scamming, stealing, and betrayals.

If these trading tables were made, then I am 100% sure that those who know about it will in fact use it while lending items. Those who dont, well, its their faults if anything happens.
I am curious! Under any system, does the one who foolishly trusts the other and is scammed possess any responsibility for being scammed?

Currently, theres no way to prevent it,
I have pointed out a couple!

which should be more then enough reason to create something that does prevent it.
Except you have failed to demonstrate that it will, indeed, prevent it. In fact, you have even granted that people will still not take advantage of such a system. I am curious - how can you find them at fault for being scammed but not find the current folks at fault for the same?

Stop calling people idiots for getting scammed, you just dont understand.
I called noone an idiot. I implore you to stop putting words in my mouth.

Heres an example:

Bob and Henry have been friends for 3 years on Graal now. Bob and Henry do everything together on Graal, and both have clean records and are not known for doing anything wrong. One day, Bob gets a lot of good items on GK, and Henry is jealous. Henry asks Bob to lend him some items, and well, they have been friends for 3 years and are very good friends, so Bob trusts Henry and gives him some items. Next thing you know, Bob never sees those items again....Henry has just scammed him.
Then Bob has failed to properly identify Henry as being capable of such jealousy/thievery.
