This 'caveat emptor' approach does not mean Scamming is legal, only that it is difficult to prove. If Graal Police witness a scam directly they may punish the offending player. The best way to avoid being scammed is to only trade within secure trading facilities in Graal. "

The important part would be the last paragraph. Scamming is not legal, but the problem would be proving it
What this means is this: if someone abuses a bug to scam, it's illegal and will be take care of. The rest is up to the participants, they have to take care of their own goods - i.e. use safetrade and trading tables. If you drop something, or give someone an item to 'try it out', it is basically your fault. As far as admins are concerned, you can always ask them to supervise a trade, which should be the overall safest method.
