Taulbee, Scamming and Tax

[Knumb]

Yesterday, Saturday Apr 11, Taulbee (Account KincersKlan) scammed me for 6.5k plat. I was supposed to purchase his diamond force, but instead he dropped a 'smokys hand', took my money and logged off. This is a conversation later, for added proof:

-Taulbee- (4/13/03 11:48:56 AM):

Knight Asht Knumb (Dustari) (4/13/03 11:48:36 AM):

Just a heads up, don't trade with him.

And now I'll probably be flamed for trading in this way. People trade, and are scammed, this way because of the incredible tax, at 20%. This tax seemingly encourages scamming. I propose we do away with it, or atleast lower it. Who pays tax a garage sale, or in private transactions? Feel free to post your opinion ;x
